Q.1 Suppose that a cruise missile under test is moving horizontally at M= 2 in the atmosphere at an elevation of
305m above the earth's surface. How long dose it take for an observer on the ground to hear the disturbance from
the instant when it is directly overhead? Assume standard atmosphere (15°C).

A student wishes to perform Young's double-slit experiment to measure the
wavelength of light of a given source. The student has measured the average
distance between adjacent dark bands and the distance from the slits to the
screen. What other measurement is required to calculate the wavelength?
a. the location of the central bright line
b. the distance between the source and the slits
c. the angle between the central bright line and first nodal line
d. the distance separating the two slits
e. the distance between the centre of the two slits and any given dark band
The photon model of light was proposed to account for several observations of
the behaviour of light. Consider the following statements.
