Four identical monochromatic sources A, B, C, D as shown in the (figure)

produce waves of the same wavelength λ and are coherent. Two receiver

R1 and R2 are at great but equal distances from B.

(i) Which of the two receivers picks up the larger signal?

(ii) Which of the two receivers picks up the larger signal when B is turned off?

(iii) Which of the two receivers picks up the larger signal when D is turned off?

(iv) Which of the two receivers can distinguish which of the sources B or D has been turned off?

    This is a Long Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar

    Explanation-consider the disturbance at the receiver R1 which is at a distance d from B

    YA= acos(wt)  and path difference is λ 2  hence phase difference is π .

    Thus the wave R1 because of B

    YB= acos(wt- π )= - acoswt here path difference is λ  and hence phase difference is 2 π

    Thus R1 because of C

    Yc= acos(wt-2 π )= acoswt

    (i)let the signal picked up at R2 from B be YB= a1cos(wt)

    The path difference between signal at D and that B is λ 2

    YD= -a1cos(wt)

    The path difference between signal at A and that atB is

    d 2 + ( λ 2 ) 2 -d = d( 1 + λ 2 4 D 2 ) 1 / 2 -d = λ 2 8 d 2

    a s d ? λ  therefore path difference os 0

    p h a s e d i f f e r e n c e = 2 π γ λ 2 8 d 2

    Y A=a1co

At lower end
Tension, T? = 2g = 20 N (due to the 2 kg block)
Velocity, v? = √ (T? /μ) = √ (20/μ)
Wavelength, λ? = 6 cm

At upper end
Tension, T? = (2 kg + 6 kg)g = 8g = 80 N (due to the block and the rope)
Velocity, v? = √ (T? /μ) = √ (80/μ) = √4 * √ (20/μ) = 2v?

Since frequency (f) remains the same:
f = v? /λ? = v? /λ?
⇒ λ? = λ? * (v? /v? )
⇒ λ? = λ? * (2v? /v? ) = 2λ?
⇒ λ? = 2 * 6 cm = 12 cm

β = λD / (d? + a? sinωt)
β? - β? = λD/ (d? - a? ) - λD/ (d? + a? )
= λD [ (d? + a? ) - (d? - a? ) / (d? ² - a? ²) ]
= 2λDa? / (d? ² - a? ²)

n = 0, for first dark fringe

d y D = λ 2

λ = 2 d D y
