Answer:
a) Not Accurate
b) Not Accurate
c) Accurate
d) Accurate
Explanation:
Part a
Not Accurate, because destructive interference would lead to maximum possible magnitude of < 3 m
Part b
Not Accurate, because constructive interference would lead to minimum possible magnitude of > 2 m
Part c
Accurate, because destructive interference would lead to maximum possible magnitude of < 3 m by varying the phase difference between two waves she can achieve the desired results.
Part d
Accurate, because constructive interference would lead to minimum possible magnitude of > 2 m by varying the phase difference between two waves she can achieve the desired results.
Refer to the figure shown below.
The velocity of the child and the velocity of the ship should be added vectorially to find the speed and direction of the child relative to the water surface.
The magnitude of the child's velocity is
v = √(2² + 18²) = 18.11 mph
The direction of the child's speed is
θ = tan⁻¹ (18/2) = tan⁻¹ 9 = 83.7° north of east or counterclockwise from the eastern direction.
Answer:
The magnitude is 18.1 mph.
The direction is 84° north of east.
