A Michelson interferometer is an optical instrument which works
on the principle of constructive/destructive interference of waves
which travel a different distance (introducing a phase difference).
Would such an instrument work on sunlight? Why or why not? Could
you build an RF equivalent? If so, describe it.

Two waves are traveling in opposite directions on the same
string. The displacements caused by the individiual waves are given
by y1=(27.0 mm)sin(5.07πt -
1.72πx) and y2=(38.0
mm)sin(2.14πt + 0.229πx). Note that the phase
angles (5.07πt - 1.72πx) and (2.14πt +
0.229πx) are in radians, t is in seconds, and
x is in meters. At t = 5.90 s, what is the net
displacement (in mm) of the string at (a)
x = 2.30 m and (b) x = 2.99...

The following two waves are sent in opposite directions on a
horizontal string so as to create a standing wave in a vertical
plane:
y1(x, t) = (6.80 mm)
sin(4.80πx - 460πt)
y2(x, t) = (6.80 mm)
sin(4.80πx + 460πt),
with x in meters and t in seconds. An antinode is
located at point A. In the time interval that point takes
to move from maximum upward displacement to maximum downward
displacement, how far does each wave move along the...

two vehicles, separated by a distance of 500m, travel
in opposite directions toward a traffic light. When will the
vehicles pass one another if vehicle A is traveling 45 km/h and is
450m [E] of the traffic light while vehicle B is traveling 60 km/h?
when will each vehicle pass the traffic light, assuming the light
remains green.
