Question

Two waves of equal frequency are traveling in opposite directionson a string. Constructive interference is found at two spots on thestring that are separated by a distance of 1.75 m. (a) What is the longest possible wavelength ofthe waves?
1 m

(b) Give two other possible values of the wavelength. (Enter youranswers from smallest to largest. Give the next two largest.)
2 m
3 m

Explanation / Answer

Constructive interference can be found at places that have distanced=n*/2 =2d/n 1. n=1, is longest 1=3,5 2. n=2, =1,75m n=3,=3,5/3m
