Homework Statement
Initially your receiver is positioned at a distance of 8.4 cm from the goniometer and recording a maximum intensity. You move it through 10 minimums in the intensity and then stop at the next maximum intensity. The receiver is now a distance of 27.3 cm from the goniometer.
What is the wavelength of the signal you have measured?
Homework Equations
ƛ/2=Distance between two maximums
The Attempt at a Solution
ƛ=2(27.3-8.4)cm
=37.8cm
It's that simple right?
I keep getting the wrong answer with this. What am I missing?
