This is simply referring to the fact that the gravitational pull of the earth is greater as you get closer to the surface of the earth, meaning that acceleration increases as well.

Sever21 [200]

Answer:Theoretical Discussion

The diffraction of classical waves refers to the phenomenon wherein the waves encounter an obstacle that fragments the wave into components that interfere with one another. Interference simply means that the wave fronts add together to make a new wave which can be significantly different than the original wave. For example, a pair of sine waves having the same amplitude, but being 180◦ out of phase will sum to zero, since everywhere one is positive, the other is negative by an equal amount.

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Distance from start point is 72.5km

Explanation:

The attached Figure shows the plane trajectories from start point (0,0) to (x1,y1) (d1=40km), then going from (x1,y1) to (x2,y2) (d2=56km), then from (x2,y2) to (x3,y3) (d3=100). Taking into account the angles and triangles formed (shown in the Figure), it can be said:

x1=d1*cos(60), y1=d1*sin(60)\\\\ x2=x1 , y2=y1-d2\\\\ x3=x2-d3*cos(30) , y3=y2+d3*sin(30)

Using the Pitagoras theorem, the distance from (x3,y3) to the start point can be calculated as:

d=\sqrt{x3^{2} +y3^{2} }

Replacing the given values in the equations, the distance is calculated.
