The centripetal force is the gravitational force of attraction between the Earth and the Moon.

Also, the gravitational force of attraction between the Earth and the Sun is the centripetal force that causes the Earth to stay in orbit around the Sun.

Also, the gravitational force of attraction between a TV satellite, a weather satellite, or a GPS satellite and the Earth is the centripetal force that causes each satellite to stay in orbit around the Earth.

Two light waves, initially emitted in phase, will interfere constructively with maximum amplitude if the path-length difference
777dan777 [17]

Two light waves will interfere constructively if the path-length difference between them is a whole number.

<h3>SUPERPOSITION</h3>

The principle of superposition state that, when two or more waves meet at a point, the resultant displacement at that point is equal to the sum of the displacements of the individual waves at that point.

Interference of waves can either be constructive, or destructive.

The two light waves, initially emitted in phase, will interfere constructively with maximum amplitude if the path-length difference between them is a whole number of wavelenght 1λ, 2λ, 3λ, 4λ etc

The equivalent phase differences between the waves will be 2\pi or 360 degrees, 4\pi or 720 degrees, 6\pi 1080 degrees etc

Therefore, the two light waves, initially emitted in phase, will interfere constructively with maximum amplitude if the path-length difference between them is a whole number.

Why is figure 5 an unhelpful visualization tool for this data set? <br><br> Please help!
Paraphin [41]

Explanation:

Because the temperature and the radiation are not correlated, they're not represented as functions of each other, they're represented as independent variables thus using graph 5 you cannot figure out how one affect another

A 65-kg swimmer pushes on the pool wall and accelerates at 6 m/s^2. The friction experienced by the swimmer is 100 N. How many N
Helga [31]

Answer:

490N

Explanation:

According Newton's second law!

\sum Force = mass × acceleration

Fm - Ff = ma

Fm is the moving force

Ff s the frictional force = 100N

mass = 65kg

acceleration = 6m/s²

Required

Moving force Fm

Substitute the given force into thr expression and get Fm

Fm -100 = 65(6)

Fm -100 = 390

Fm = 390+100

Fm = 490N

Hence the force that will cause two cart to move is 490N
