<h2>Answer: remain stationary</h2>

Stationary waves (so called because they seem to be immobile) occur when two waves interfere with the <u>same frequency, amplitude but with different direction</u>, along a line with a phase difference of half wavelength.

In this kind of waves there are two types of points:

The nodes, which are points that remain motionless or stationary and do not vibrate. They are due to the destructive interference of both waves when they meet.

The antinodes, which are points that vibrate with a maximum vibration amplitude. They are due to the non-destructive interference of both waves.

According to this explanation and comparing it with the description, when this two waves pass through each other, the point P will become a node, hence<u> it will remain stationary</u>.

Identical isolated conducting spheres 1 and 2 have equal charges and are separated by a distance that is large compared with the

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

F = 0.1575 N

Explanation:

When the third sphere touches the first sphere, the charge is distributed between both spheres, then now the first sphere has only half of his original charge.

In this moment then

Sphere one has a charge = Q/2

Sphere three has a charge = Q/2

Now when the third sphere touches the second sphere again the charge is distributed in a manner that both sphere has the same charge.

How the total charge is Q = Q/2 + Q = 3/2Q, when the spheres are separated each one has 3/4Q

Sphere two has a charge = 3/4Q

Sphere three has a charge = 3/4Q

The electrostatic force that acts on sphere 2 due to sphere 1 is:

F = $\frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2} }{r^{2} }$
