A planar cross section through two spherical waves emanating from the sources S1 and S2 in the plane is shown in the figure. The black circles are one and two wavelengths from their respective sources. The lighter circles are one half and one and a half wavelengths distant from their respective sources. If the phase at S1 and S2 is zero at this instant, and the waves shown arriving at P1 both arrive with amplitude A, the magnitude of the phase angle of each wave at point P1 (in radians) is

Question 2

A planar cross section through two spherical waves emanating from the sources S1 and S2 in the plane is shown in the figure. S1 and S2 are in phase. The black circles are one and two wavelengths from their respective sources. The lighter circles are one half and one and a half wavelengths distant from their respective sources. If the waves shown arriving at P2 both arrive with amplitude A, the resultant amplitude at point P2 is

The use of salicylates dates back 2,500 years to Hippocrates's recommendation of willow bark (from which a salicylate is derived) as an aid to the pains of childbirth. However, overdosage of salicylates can harm body fluids, electrolytes, the CNS, the GI tract, the ears, the lungs, the blood, the liver, and the kidneys and cause coma or death.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.

Did you know?

When intravenous medications are involved in adverse drug events, their harmful effects may occur more rapidly, and be more severe than errors with oral medications. This is due to the direct administration into the bloodstream.
