Defraction Experiment and Simulation

1) The pattern for the left top side has vertical lines, and the left bottom side has closer vertical lines.
    The pattern for the right top side has vertical lines, and the right bottom side has closer vertical lines. 
    As the lines get closer together the light patterns spread farther out, and vice verse.



























2) The distance between the pattern lines is 160nm. The thickness of the dots is 60nm.

Wave Interference Simulation

1) Amplitude low, wavelength is 1cm
    Amplitude high, wavelength is 1cm

2) Frequency low, wavelength is 5.35cm
    Frequency high, wavelength is 0.84cm

3) Amplitude does not affect wavelength.
    High frequencies result in shorter wavelengths, and vice verse.

4) Faucet 1 wavelength is 1.5cm
    Faucet 2 wavelength is 1.5cm

 The places where there is constructive interference is the same for the waves in the middle. And the distances for 1 to B and 2 to C are the same, as well as 1 to F and 2 to D. There is a recurring pattern of the distances from the Faucets to the constructive wave points.
