Force and motion -- Person falling from 20m onto a cushion (EASY)
APPROACH 1 (correct): Height above ground = 3 - (v+u)/2 * t = 3 - 18.263/2 * 0.25 = 0.717 m ----------------------------------------------------- APPROACH 2 (incorrect): Let d be the height from the ground when he is stopped by the cushion. PE loss = Work done against motion by cushion mgh =...- guest948

Why does the intensity vary when the detector is moved away from the slits?
The path lengths are the same, so they are in phase and they add constructively along PQ. So the answer is C (or A)?- guest948

I guess C: constructive interference pattern along the central line. Am I correct?- guest948
