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

A pair of narrow slits, separated by 1.8 mm, is illuminated by a monochromatic light source. Light waves arrive at the two slits
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

750 nm

Explanation:

d  = separation of the slits = 1.8 mm = 0.0018 m

λ = wavelength of monochromatic light

D  = screen distance = 4.8 m

y = position of first bright fringe = \frac{1cm}{5 fringe} = \frac{0.01}{5} = 0.002 m

n  = order = 1

Position of first bright fringe is given as

y = \frac{nD\lambda }{d}

0.002 = \frac{(1)(4.8)\lambda }{0.0018}

λ = 7.5 x 10⁻⁷ m

λ = 750 nm

A wave transfers:<br> Water<br> particles<br> energy<br> matter
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Particles in a water wave exchange kinetic energy for potential energy. When particles in water become part of a wave, they start to move up or down. This means that kinetic energy (energy of movement) has been transferred to them

A truck tire rotates at an initial angular speed of 21.5 rad/s. The driver steadily accelerates, and after 3.50 s the tire's ang
erma4kov [3.2K]

Given:

initial angular speed, \omega _{i} = 21.5 rad/s

final angular speed, \omega _{f} = 28.0 rad/s

time, t = 3.50 s

Solution:

Angular acceleration can be defined as the time rate of change of angular velocity and is given by:

\alpha = \frac{\omega_{f} - \omega _{i}}{t}

Now, putting the given values in the above formula:

\alpha = \frac{28.0 - 21.5}{3.50}

\alpha = 1.86 m/s^{2}

Therefore, angular acceleration is:

\alpha = 1.86 m/s^{2}
