Light of wavelength 525 nm passes through two slits separated by 0.500 mm and produces an interference pattern on a screen 7.80 m away. The intensity at the central maximum is I0.
 
  What is the distance on the screen from the center of this central maximum to the point where the intensity due to double-slit interference has fallen to 1/2 I0?

Question 2

In a double slit experiment, the intensity of light at the center of the central bright fringe is measured to be 6.2 W/m2.
 
  What is the intensity halfway between the center of this fringe and the first dark band, assuming that the small-angle approximation is valid? A) 6.2 W/m2
  B) 3.1 W/m2
  C) 4.7 W/m2
  D) 1.6 W/m2
  E) 0.12 W/m2

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).

Bisphosphonates were first developed in the nineteenth century. They were first investigated for use in disorders of bone metabolism in the 1960s. They are now used clinically for the treatment of osteoporosis, Paget's disease, bone metastasis, multiple myeloma, and other conditions that feature bone fragility.
