4.Explain what must be true of component waves for reinforcement or interference to occur.

Physics

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.

Consider a system two point charges. One has charge +q at (x, y,z) -(a,0,0) and another of charge-q at (x, y, z) = (-a, 0,0). 5.

Answer:

electricfield at (0,0,0) is Et = 2 k q / a²

Explanation:

For the first part see the diagram , the field lines start from the positive charge and reach the negative charge, notice that no line should cross, some lines go to infinity

For the second part we use that the electric field is a vector quantity and therefore we add the field of each charge, using the equation

     E = k q / r²

Point (0,0,0)

We calculate for the charge -q which is at a distance R = a

   E1 = k (-q) / a²

   E1 = - kq / a²

As the test charge is positive in the field it goes to the left, attractive force

We calculate for the charge that is also at R = a

    E2 = k q / a²

This field goes to the left, repulsive force

We find the total electric field

    Et = E1 + E2

    Et = kq / a² + kq / a²

    Et = 2 k q / a²

Point (0,0, R)

We use the same equations, but with another distance, for the charge -q the distance is R = R+a and for the charge + q the distance is R = R-a

     E1 = k q / (R + a)²

     E2 = kq / (R-a)²

     Et = kq [1 / (R + a)² + 1 / (R-a)²]

     Et= kq {[(R-a)² + (R + a)²] / [(R + a)² (R-a)²]}

     Et= kq {2 (R² + a²) / [(R + a)² (R-a)²]}

If we use the condition that  R> a we can despise in the patents "a"

     (R² + a²) = R² (1+ a² / R²) ≈ R²

     (R + a)² = R² (1 + a / R)² ≈ R²

     (R- a)²  = R² (1-a / R)² ≈ R²

Substituting in the total electric field

     Et = kq {2 R²) / [R²R²]}

     Et =kq 2 / R²

With the switch closed, how does the voltage across the 20-ω resistor compare to the voltage across the 10-ω resistor?
jasenka [17]
In electricity, the most famous and basic equation is the Ohm's Law which relates the parameters voltage, current and resistance. One form of this law as written in equation is V = IR, where V is the voltage in volts, I is the current in amperes and R is the resistance in ohms. These parameters depends in the arrangements, whether it's series or parallel.

In a series connection, the voltage is greater across a high-resistance resistor. Therefore, the voltage is much greater for the 20-ohm resistor. However,if it is a parallel circuit, the voltage is just the same for both resistors.

A cat with a mass of 5.00 kg pushes on a 25.0 kg desk with a force of 50.0N to jump off. What is the force on the desk?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

First of all the formula is F= uR,( force= static friction× reaction)

mass= 5+25=30

F= 50

R= mg(30×10)=300

u= ?

F=UR

u= F/R

u= 50/300=0.17N
