Diffraction of light

In physics, the term diffraction is defined as the bending of light around the corners of the obstacle. As a light ray passes by an aperture, it bends around the edges or through slits, it spreads out through a narrow opening. The diffracted light will p…

Multiple Choice Questions

If you add a third slit to two slits, with the same slit separation, and shine the same laser beam on the three slits, how will the three-slit pattern compare to the double-slit pattern? a. It will be the same, only brighter.

b. It will be the same, only the spots will be farther apart.

c. The centers of its bright fringes will be the same distance from each other, but their width will be narrower, additional spots will appear between them.

d. The centers of its bright fringes will be the same distance from each other, and their width will be narrower; no additional spots will appear.

The force of the quadriceps (Fq) and force of the patellar tendon (Fp) is identical (i.e., 1000 N each). In the figure below angle in blue is Θ and the in green is half Θ (i.e., Θ/2). A) Calculate the patellar reaction force (i.e., R resultant vector is the sum of the horizontal component of the quadriceps and patellar tendon force) at the following joint angles: you need to provide a diagram showing the vector and its components for each part. a1) Θ = 160 degrees, a2) Θ = 90 degrees. NOTE: USE ONLY TRIGNOMETRIC FUNCTIONS (SIN/TAN/COS, NO LAW OF COSINES, NO COMPLICATED ALGEBRAIC EQUATIONS OR ANYTHING ELSE, ETC. Question A has 2 parts!
