What phase difference between two identical traveling waves, moving in the same direction along a stretched string, results in t

he combined wave having an amplitude 1.703 times that of the common amplitude of the two combining waves? Express your answer in degrees (no need to write the unit).

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the amplitude of individual wave be I and resultant amplitude be 1.703 I . Let the phase difference be Ф in terms of degree

From the formula of resultant vector

(1.703I)² = I² + I² + 2 I² cosФ

2.9 I² = 2I² + 2 I² cosФ

.9I² = 2 I² cosФ

cosФ = .9 / 2

= .45

Ф = 63.25 .

newtons 3rd law of motion states that "every action has an equal and oppisite reaction" A golf ball was hit with a force of 200

jolli1 [7]

This relates to newtons law of motion because that golf ball hit so hard that it went the same speed. because its force the more u like hit it your gonna get that force.
hope this makes sense

A gasoline tank has the shape of an inverted right circular cone with base radius 4 meters and height 5 meters. Gasoline is bein

RSB [31]

Answer:

h'=0.25m/s

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we need to start by drawing a diagram of the given situation. (See attached image).

So, the problem talks about an inverted circular cone with a given height and radius. The problem also tells us that water is being pumped into the tank at a rate of $8m^{3}/s$ . As you may see, the problem is talking about a rate of volume over time. So we need to relate the volume, with the height of the cone with its radius. This relation is found on the volume of a cone formula:

$V_{cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h$

notie the volume formula has two unknowns or variables, so we need to relate the radius with the height with an equation we can use to rewrite our volume formula in terms of either the radius or the height. Since in this case the problem wants us to find the rate of change over time of the height of the gasoline tank, we will need to rewrite our formula in terms of the height h.

If we take a look at a cross section of the cone, we can see that we can use similar triangles to find the equation we are looking for. When using similar triangles we get:

$\frac {r}{h}=\frac{4}{5}$

When solving for r, we get:

$r=\frac{4}{5}h$

so we can substitute this into our volume of a cone formula:

$V_{cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi (\frac{4}{5}h)^{2}h$

which simplifies to:

$V_{cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi (\frac{16}{25}h^{2})h$

$V_{cone}=\frac{16}{75} \pi h^{3}$

So now we can proceed and find the partial derivative over time of each of the sides of the equation, so we get:

$\frac{dV}{dt}= \frac{16}{75} \pi (3)h^{2} \frac{dh}{dt}$

Which simplifies to:

$\frac{dV}{dt}= \frac{16}{25} \pi h^{2} \frac{dh}{dt}$

So now I can solve the equation for dh/dt (the rate of height over time, the velocity at which height is increasing)

So we get:

$\frac{dh}{dt}= \frac{(dV/dt)(25)}{16 \pi h^{2}}$

Now we can substitute the provided values into our equation. So we get:

$\frac{dh}{dt}= \frac{(8m^{3}/s)(25)}{16 \pi (4m)^{2}}$

so:

$\frac{dh}{dt}=0.25m/s$

A student places his hand in front of a plane mirror as shown in

NARA [144]

Answer:

A:

Explanation:

Plane mirrors always form virtual images meaning although the object appears to be in the other side of the mirror the light rays actually originate in front of it. The image is inverted meaning that when you lift your right hand it shows your left hand rising. and with true orientation.

A model rocket is launched straight upward with an initial speed of 52.0 m/s. It accelerates with a constant upward acceleration

JulsSmile [24]

Explanation:

(a) After the engines stop, the rocket reaches a maximum height at which it will stop and begin to descend in free fall due to gravity.

(b) We must separate the motion into two parts, when the rocket's engines is on and when the rocket's engines is off.

First we must find the rocket speed when the engines stop:

$v_f^2=v_0^2+2ay_1\\v_f^2=(52\frac{m}{s})^2+2(1\frac{m}{s^2})(160m)\\v_f^2=3024\frac{m^2}{s^2}\\v_f=\sqrt{3024\frac{m^2}{s^2}}=54.99\frac{m}{s}$

This final speed is the initial speed in the second part of the motion, when engines stop until reach its maximun height. Therefore, in this part the final speed its zero and the value of g its negative, since decelerates the rocket:

$v_f^2=v_0^2+2gy_{2}\\y_{2}=\frac{v_f^2-v_0^2}{2g}\\y_{2}=\frac{0^2-(54.99\frac{m}{s})^2}{2(-9.8\frac{m}{s^2})}=154.28m$

So, the maximum height reached by the rocket is:

$h=y_1+y_2\\h=160m+154.28m=314.28m$

(c) In the first part we have:

$v_f=v_0+at_1\\t_1=\frac{v_f-v_0}{a}\\t_1=\frac{54.99\frac{m}{s}-52\frac{m}{s}}{1\frac{m}{s^2}}\\t_1=2.99s$

And in the second part:

$t_2=\frac{v_f-v_0}{g}\\t_2=\frac{0-54.99\frac{m}{s}}{-9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}\\t_2=5.61s$

So, the time it takes to reach the maximum height is:

$t_3=t_1+t_2\\t_3=2.99s+5.61s=8.60s$

(d) We already know the time between the liftoff and the maximum height, we must find the rocket's time between the maximum height and the ground, therefore, is a free fall motion:

$v_f^2=v_0^2+2ay\\v_f^2=0^2+2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(314.28m)\\v_f=\sqrt{6159.888\frac{m^2}{s^2}}=78.48\frac{m}{s}$

$t_4=\frac{v_f-v_0}{g}\\t_4=\frac{78.48\frac{m}{s}-0}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}\\t_4=8.01s$

So, the total time is:

$t=t_3+t_4\\t=8.60s+8.01s\\t=16.61s$
