- D Let M be the mass of the sun, MJ the mass of Jupiter, and ME the mass of
Earth. In addition, let RJ denote the distance from the sun to Jupiter and RE
the distance from the sun to the earth. We’re told that MJ = 300ME and RJ =
5 RE, so using Newton’s law of gravitation, we find that
- A Since P is the center of a dark fringe, it is a location of completely
destructive interference. In order for this to occur, the waves must be exactly
out of phase when they reach P. This will happen if the difference between
