This next statement is a big deal. It should be up on a board, surrounded
by flashing red and yellow lights, and hung on the wall of every Science
classroom. Although we never see it in our daily lives, it's fundamental to
the workings of the universe, and it's also Newton's first law of motion:
<em>Without friction, it doesn't take <u>ANY</u> force to keep a moving object
moving. </em><em>Force is only required to <u>change</u> the object's speed, or to
<u>change</u> the direction </em><em>in which it's moving.</em>
The answer to the question is: On a level road, and neglecting any friction,
the engine doesn't have to supply ANY force to keep the car going at the
same speed.
as it is given that


now we will have

now the magnitude of this vector is given as


now to find the direction we can use




If the two waves have the SAME FREQUENCY and are exactly
out of phase (180° apart), then the resultant wave will have the
same frequency and an amplitude of 1 unit.
If the two waves do not have the SAME FREQUENCY, then their
relative phase is meaningless.
