Answer:

Ф = 142.674 degree

Ф = 2.490131057 rad

wavelength  = 0.396316 λ

Explanation:

Given data

combined wave having an amplitude 0.64 times

to find out

answer in degrees,  radians, and fraction of the wavelength

solution

let us consider these two wave equation

Asin(ωt) and the Asin (ωt + Ф)

and here Ф is phase difference

so we say

resultant wave is

Y = Asin(ωt) + Asin (ωt + Ф) =  Asin(ωt + Ф/2) cos ( Ф/2)

so Y = A' sin(ωt + Ф/2)

we know that here resultant wave amplitude is 2A cos ( Ф/2)

so

put A= 0.64 A

so 2Acos ( Ф/2)  = 0.64 A

and Ф/2  = 71.3370

Ф = 142.674 degree

Ф = 2.490131057 rad

so wavelength is  2.490131057 /  2π

wavelength  = 0.396316 λ

Why are water storage tanks usually placed on high towers
sammy [17]
Thay are on high towers because if it was below how would the water flow. Putting it on high towers gives you an advantage of the gravity with means you got free pressure without having to use a pump.

<span>Water pressure = Height * density * gravity</span>

Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to _____ energy.
lapo4ka [179]
Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to D electrical energy. Its D because converting something has to do with recharging something and electronics have to charge. I hope I helped.

The acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter is 2.5 times what it is here on earth. An object weighing 347.9 N here on earth will
inessss [21]

Answer:  weight on Jupiter = 869.75 N

              mass  on Earth = mass on Jupiter = 35.5 Kg

Explanation:

W = mg

W = weight

m = mass

g = gravitational acceleration [ on the Earth, g₁ = 9,8 N/kg ]

On the Earth,

G₁ = m x g₁  = 347,9 N

On the Jupiter,

G₂ = mg₂  

mass on the Earth = mass on the Jupiter !  

m = G₁ : g = 347.9 N : 9,8 N/kg = 35.5 kg

G2 : G1 = 2.5

G₂ = 2,5 G₁ = 2,5 x 347.9 N =  869,75 N
