When you blow some air above the upper face of a paper strip, the paper rises. This occurs because
A) the air above the upper face of the paper moves faster, which makes the pressure lower than at the lower face.
B) the air above the upper face of the paper moves faster, which makes the pressure higher than at the lower face.
C) the air above the upper face of the paper moves slower, which makes the pressure lower than at the lower face.
D) the air above the upper face of the paper moves faster but the pressure remains constant.
E) the air above the upper face of the paper moves slower, which makes the pressure higher than at the lower face.

Single-Slit Diffraction: The figure shows the resulting pattern when a single slit is illuminated by monochromatic light. The slit is 0.3 × 10-3 m wide and is illuminated by light of wavelength 506 nm. A diffraction pattern is seen on a screen 2.8 m from the slit. What is the linear distance on the screen between the first two diffraction minima on either side of the central diffraction maximum?
