Answer:

The component of waves must have same frequency and phase.

Explanation:

when the component of waves vibrate at the same rate and attain maximum point at the same time, reinforcement of the waves amplitude occur to cause a constructive interference.However, when the two waves are out of phase where one is at minimum when the other is at maximum a destructive interference happens.

astraxan [27]

Answer: True

Explanation: Following are the properties that are used to identify minerals:

(1) Color

(2) Hardness

(3) Magnetism : It is the property of mineral to attract or repel with other magnetic materials.

(4) Luster : It is the property that shows the surface is reflecting light or not.

(5) Reactivity: Reactivity is also responsible to identify mineral. How the mineral is reacting with acids, bases etc helps to identify type of minerals.

A physical pendulum in the form of a planar object moves in simple harmonic motion with a frequency of 0.460 Hz. The pendulum ha

zlopas [31]

Answer:

The moment of inertia is $I =1.0697 \ kg m^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The frequency is $f = 0.460 \ Hz$

The mass of the pendulum is $m = 2.40 \ kg$

The location of the pivot from the center is $d = 0.380 \ m$

Generally the period of the simple harmonic motion is mathematically represented as

$T = 2 \pi * \sqrt{ \frac{I}{ m * g * d } }$

Where I is the moment of inertia about the pivot point , so making I the subject of the formula it

=> $I = [ \frac{T}{2 \pi } ]^2 * m* g * d$

But the period of this simple harmonic motion can also be represented mathematically as

$T = \frac{1}{f}$

substituting values

$T = \frac{1}{0.460}$

$T = 2.174 \ s$

$I = [ \frac{2.174}{2 * 3.142 } ]^2 * 2.40* 9.8 * 0.380$

$I =1.0697 \ kg m^2$

a car moving with a speed of 10 metre per second is accelerator at the rate of 2 metre per second square find its velocity after

STatiana [176]

a = ( v(2) - v(1) ) ÷ ( t(2) - t(1) )

2 = ( v(2) - 10 ) ÷ ( 6 - 0 )

2 × 6 = v(2) - 10

v(2) = 12 + 10

v(2) = 22 m/s

Write a hypothesis for Part II of the lab, which is about the relationship described by F = ma. In the lab, you will use a toy c

Temka [501]

Answer:

F=ma is the relationship where, F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration.

Newton's second law states that the unbalanced force applied to the object accelerates the object which is directly proportional to the force and inversely to the mass.

If we apply force to a toy car then It will accelerate.

This is how Newton's second law of motion is verified.
