What is meant by constructive and destructive interference

1 answer:

6 0

In waveform physics, constructive and destructive interference describes the way two different waves interact with one another. If two waves are aligned such that the peaks of both are in the same spot, the waves experience constructive interference - the two add together and become a single, more powerful wave. The opposite happens if the peak of one meets the trough of the other - the two cancel each other out, and the magnitude of the combined wave is lesser than the individual waves. There are also other, more complex versions of interference if they don’t align cleanly, but the most common descriptions of interference are the ones described above.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

V=14.9 m/s

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we are going to use the formulas of parabolic motion.

The velocity X-component of the ball is given by:

$Vx=V*cos(\alpha)\\Vx=15.7*cos(31^o)=13.5m/s$

The motion on the X axis is a constant velocity motion so:

$t=\frac{d}{Vx}\\t=\frac{20.0}{13.5}=1.48s$

The whole trajectory of the ball takes 1.48 seconds

We know that:

$Vy=Voy+(a)*t\\Vy=15.7*sin(31^o)+(-9.8)*(1.48)=-6.42m/s$

Knowing the X and Y components of the velocity, we can calculate its magnitude by:

$V=\sqrt{Vx^2+Vy^2} \\V=\sqrt{(13.5)^2+(-6.42)^2}=14.9m/s$

An observer stands 24.7 m behind a marksman practicing at a rifle range. The marksman fires the rifle horizontally, the speed of

GaryK [48]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Velocity of bullet, $c_{p}$ = 814.8 m/s

Observer distance from marksman, d = 24.7 m

Let us assume that time necessary for report of rifle to reach the observer is t and will be calculated as follows.

t = $\frac{24.7}{343}$ (velocity in air = 343 m/s)

= 0.072 sec

Now, before the observer hears the report the distance traveled by the bullet is as follows.

$d_{b} = c_{b} \times t$

= $814.8 \times 0.072$

= 58.66

= 59 (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that each bullet will travel a distance of 59 m.

Surrounding a magnet is a magnetic field. Surrounding an electron is an electric field. Surrounding Earth is

trasher [3.6K]

Answer: B. A gravitational field

Explanation:

Surrounding earth is gravitational field. Gravitational field is a region of space were gravitational force can be felt and gravitational force is the gravitational pull on the surface of the earth. The presence of this gravity is what allow us to be able to walk freely without falling. It also make us jump up and be able to land back on the ground. Assuming there are no force of gravity in the surface of the earth, there won't be any possibility of landing back on the ground after jumping.
