Answer: Particles cannot bend around the edges of an obstacle, as light waves does.
Explanation:
Diffraction happens when a wave (mechanical or electromagnetic wave) meets an obstacle or a slit .When this occurs, the wave bends around the edges of the obstacle or passes through the opening of the slit that acts as an obstacle, forming multiple patterns with the shape of the aperture of the slit.
Note this phenomenon is a characteristic of waves behaviour and not particles, because <u>particles cannot bend around the edges of an obstacle</u>, as waves (light waves in this case) does.
By definition for an elastic shock, we have that if the second particle is at rest, then the final velocity of the first particle will be given by vf1 = ((m1-m2) * vi1) / (m1 + m2). Then, substituting the values: vf1 = ((0.1-0.3) * 10) / (0.1 + 0.4) = - 5m / s.
Answer:
Mutations do not necessarily always have to be bad, sometimes plants or animals mutate with something helpful to the situation they are in.
The ducks speed is 10m per second
