    Why are the calculated energies for two oscillating waves not equal?

    A similar question, Suppose we have a thin film of glass with an index of diffraction is n The upper and lower surfaces of the flim is parellel. Light is incident to the flim. So a portion of light is reflected at the upper surface, the rest is refracted into glass. Light continues to the...

    What is the space between two consecutive grooves on the CD

    note that equation 3.10: for diffraction grating, the condition for maxima in the interference pattern at the angle a is d.sina=m.lambda (d = slit spacing. m=0,1,2... - order number, lambda=wavelength)

    What is the space between two consecutive grooves on the CD

    Can you tell me how to perform this experiment ? .. and also prove that it's true. I don't understand it. Thank you.

    Why Does Sound Intensity at Point P Equal I1 + I2?

    Suppose we have two source of disturbance to produce sound waves. The intensity of sound produced by the first source at P is I1, and the other intensity is I2. So what is the intensity at point P. I see many books saying that I=I1+I2. Can you explain why? net medium displacement vector...

    Why are the calculated energies for two oscillating waves not equal?

    Hi everyone, I have a question about waves. Suppose there are two waves that make one water atom vibrate. The first equation of oscillation is: x1= A1sin(wt+p1), energy propagated to the atom is (1/2)m.(w^2)(A1^2) and the other: x2=A2sin(wt+p2), E2 = (1/2)m.(w^2)(A2^2) so the total energy...
