Answer:

constructive interference in which waves strengthen each other

Explanation:

Some definitions:

- Costructive interference occurs when two (or more) waves meet each other in phase, so with same displacement at the same point. In such situation, the two waves strengthen each other, and the amplitude of the resultant wave is the sum of the amplitudes of the individual waves

- Destructive interference occurs when two waves meet each other in anti-phase, so with opposite displacement at the same point. In such situation, the two waves cancel each other out, and the amplitude of the resultant wave is the difference of the amplitudes of the individual waves (which means zero if the two waves are identical)

For light waves interfering with each other, 'white' means costructive interference, while 'black' means destructive interference (because black is absence of colors, so this means that the waves cancel each other out). In this problem, we see that point X, Y and X are white, therefore they are point of constructive interference, where the waves strengthen each other.

A boy in a wheelchair (total mass 54.5 kg) has speed 1.40 m/s at the crest of a slope 2.10 m high and 12.4 m long. At the bottom
babymother [125]

Answer:

630.75 j

Explanation:

from the question we have the following

total mass (m) = 54.5 kg

initial speed (Vi) = 1.4 m/s

final speed (Vf) = 6.6 m/s

frictional force (FF) = 41 N

height of slope (h) = 2.1 m

length of slope (d) = 12.4 m

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^2

work done (wd) = ?

  • we can calculate the work done by the boy in pushing the chair using the law of law of conservation of energy

wd + mgh = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x  d)

wd = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x  d) - (mgh)

where wd = work done

m = mass

h = height

g = acceleration due to gravity

FF = frictional force

d = distance

Vf and Vi = final and initial velocity

wd =  (0.5 x 54.5 x 6.9^2) - (0.5 x 54.5 x 1.4^2) + (41 x 12.4) - (54.5 X 9.8 X 2.1)            

wd = 630.75 j

What will happen to the current if the voltage is reduced to one half? ​
stira [4]
We use v=IR and assuming the resistance doesn’t change we can also say that the voltage and current (I) are directly proportional which means the voltage also decreases by 1/2

PLEASE HELP

The correct answer is 195.6 N

Explanation:

Different from the mass (total of matter) the weight is affected by gravity. Due to this, the weight changes according to the location of a body in the universe as gravity is not the same in all planets or celestial bodies. Moreover, this factor is measured in Newtons and it can be calculated using this simple formula W (Weight) = m (mass) x g (force of gravity). Now, leps calculate the weigh of someone whose mass is 120 kg and it is located on the moon:

F = 120 kg x 1.63 m/s2

F= 195.6 N

Jason walks 20 m East, turns around and 20 m West, Finally, he walks 10 rn North. This takes 20 s. what is Jason's velocity​
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

0.5 m/s north

Explanation:

Take east to be +x, west to be -x, north to be +y, and south to be -y.

His displacement in the x direction is:

x = 20 m − 20 m = 0 m

His displacement in the y direction is:

y = 10 m

His total displacement is therefore 10 m north.

His velocity is equal to displacement divided by time.

v = 10 m north / 20 s

v = 0.5 m/s north
