Option 3 is the correct option to the following question.

Explanation:

Double slit experiment:

The double-slit experiment in modern physics reveals that light and matter can exhibit characteristics of both classically described waves and particles; it also shows the inherently probabilistic existence of quantum mechanical phenomena.

When two wavelength meets ,if the resultant amplitude is maximum then this is known as constructive interference and the resultant amplitude is maximum then this is known as destructive interference.

Therefore the answer is "3".

The author clearly describes what a light second is by including examples that her readers can relate to. She provides an example of how far a kid could run in a second and then shows just how much farther light can travel in the same time by describing the distance as "from Earth to the Moon."

Answer from: Quest

Is a vector quantity that refers to "the rate at which an object changes its position." imagine a person moving rapidly - one step forward and one step back - always returning to the original starting position. while this might result in a frenzy of activity, it would result in a zero velocity. because the person always returns to the original position, the motion would never result in a change in position. since velocity is defined as the rate at which the position changes, this motion results in zero velocity. if a person in motion wishes to maximize their velocity, then that person must make every effort to maximize the amount that they are displaced from their original position. every step must go into moving that person further from where he or she started. for certain, the person should never change directions and begin to return to the starting position.
