A node is a point on a standing wave that has no displacement from the rest position. At the nodes, _____.
Kitty [74]

Answer: (B) There is complete destructive interference between the incoming and reflected waves

Explanation:

For example, if you pluck a guitar the waves will travel back and forth. They consist of nodes and anti-nodes. It is created, when the wave traveling to one side and bounces of the other end and comes back. As it travels to the other side, it is reflected thus, comes back. So standing waves occurs when there is interference.

When the wave is produced, the points where the string is not moving are called nodes and where they are moving are called anti-nodes. The positions where nodes are produced, destructive interference occurs and where anti-nodes are produced, constructive interference occurs

You are given two converging lenses to build a compound microscope. Lens A has focal length 0.50 cm and lens B has focal length
siniylev [52]

Answer:

The lens to be used for the objective is lens A

Explanation:

The objective of a compound microscope

The focal length of the lens used for the objective = 1/(magnification obtained)

The focal length of most modern is equal to the tube length

The range of sizes for the focal length of a microscope is between 2 mm and 40 mm

Therefore, the appropriate lens to be used for the objective of the compound is lens A that has a focal length of 0.50 cm = 5 mm
