What are cis trans isomers

 Cis and trans isomers are [stereoisomers] (molecules with the same formula and bonds, but different 3D shapes). In a cis isomer, the same or high-priority groups sit on the same side of a rigid structure (like a double bond or ring). In a trans isomer, those groups sit on opposite sides.

The double-slit experiment to illustrates wave interference pattern, and diffraction.

 

The double-slit experiment primarily illustrates wave interference, though diffraction plays a critical role as the waves bend around each individual slit to overlap.

 When light or matter passes through two close slits, diffraction spreads the waves out, and they interfere to create an alternating pattern of bright and dark bands on a screen.

How the Two Concepts Work Together
  • Diffraction: Waves bend and spread out as they pass through each narrow slit.
  • Interference: The spread-out waves from both slits cross paths and overlap.
  • Constructive Interference: Waves meet in sync and make bright bands.
  • Destructive Interference: Waves meet out of sync and cancel out to make dark bands.




  • m = number of maximum
  • D= distance between screen and slits
  • d = seperation between the two slits
  • lambda = wavelength
  • y = is the gap between the maximum and the center

  • Here, the Green lines show the points of Constructive interference, hence a maximum i.e. a bright spot while the orange line shows the points where destructive interferance takes place and hence points of mimnimum i.e. dark spots.

If two bodies of mass 10kg and 7 kg hang on the two sides of a single pully, then what is the speed of the bodies and what is the net force acting on the axis of the pully?

 




What is 'Molecularity' in chemical kinetics? why it cannot be fractional? and how to calculate it from the balanced equation of a reaction?
