Wave<span> interference is the phenomenon that occurs when </span>two waves meet<span> while traveling along the same medium. The interference of </span>waves<span> causes the medium to take on a shape that results from the net effect of the </span>two<span> individual </span>waves<span> upon the particles of the medium.</span>

Hope this helps!

Explanation:

Interference: It is the phenomenon in which there is a superposition of the waves occur to form a resultant wave. The interference can be : Destructive and constructive depending on the amplitude of the resulting wave.

The amplitude of the resulting wave can be maximum and minimum.

When the amplitude of the resulting wave is minimum then the destructive interference will occur in this case.  When the amplitude of the resulting wave is maximum then the constructive interference will occur.

Therefore, when two light waves travelling from the same direction of displacement meet then interference will occur.

aksik [14]

Answer:

a) 145.6kgm^2

b) 158.4kg-m^2/s

c) 0.76rads/s

Explanation:

Complete qestion: a) the rotational inertia of the merry-go-round about its axis of rotation 

(b) the magnitude of the angular momentum of the child, while running, about the axis of rotation of the merry-go-round and

(c) the angular speed of the merry-go-round and child after the child has jumped on.

a) From I = MK^2

I = (160Kg)(0.91m)^2

I = 145.6kgm^2

b) The magnitude of the angular momentum is given by:

L= r × p The raduis and momentum are perpendicular.

L = r × mc

L = (1.20m)(44.0kg)(3.0m/s)

L = 158.4kg-m^2/s

c) The total moment of inertia comprises of the merry- go - round and the child. the angular speed is given by:

L = Iw

158.4kgm^2/s = [145kgm^2 + ( 44.0kg)(1.20)^2]

w = 158.6/208.96

w = 0.76rad/s

Which color of light is diffracted at a greater angle from a diffraction grating, red or yellow light?
topjm [15]
The amount of diffraction depends on the wavelength of light, with shorter wavelengths being diffracted at a greater angle than longer ones (in effect, blue and violet<span> light are diffracted at a larger angle than is red light).

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
