Answer:
If a crest formed by one wave interferes with a trough formed by the other wave then the rope will not move at all.
Explanation:
Assume a straight rope tied to both ends is at rest. When a wave is created at one end of the rope, it travels to the other end of the rope through formation of alternative crest and trough. Due to these crest and trough the rope shifts up and down.
But when there are two waves travelling through the rope and both have opposite direction (directed towards one another) in such a way that crest formed by one wave is interfering with the trough formed by the other wave then due to this interference the waves will cancel the effects of each other on the rope and rope will be stable.
The correct option is B.
Resonance is said to occur when one object which is vibrating at the same natural frequency of a second object forces the second object into vibrational motion. When resonance is achieved a big loud voice is usually heard. Resonance generally requires three conditions to occur:
1. An object that has a natural frequency.
2. A force that is functioning at the same frequency as the natural frequency.
3. Prevention of energy loss.
Momentum = (mass) x (speed)
If the speed is zero, then the momentum is zero.
