Intensity of Destructive Interference Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Resultant Intensity of Destructive = (sqrt(Intensity 1)-sqrt(Intensity 2))^2
I_D = (sqrt(I₁)-sqrt(I₂))^2
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Resultant Intensity of Destructive - (Measured in Candela) - Resultant Intensity of Destructive Wave is the resulting intensity of a destructive wave that occurs when two or more waves overlap, causing a decrease in amplitude.
Intensity 1 - (Measured in Candela) - Intensity 1 is a measure of the amount of energy or power per unit area of a wave, typically measured in units of power per unit area.
Intensity 2 - (Measured in Candela) - Intensity 2 is a measure of the power of a wave, typically measured in units of energy per unit area, and is used to describe the strength of a wave in various physical systems.
