There are two<span> main types of </span>wave<span> interference: constructive interference and destructive interference. Constructive interference </span>happens<span> when the amplitude of the combined </span>waves<span> is larger than the amplitudes of the single </span>waves<span>. This can occur when the </span>crests of two<span> transverse </span><span>waves overlap.

Hope this helps!!! :D

Answer:

the correct one is: a diffraction limits the resolving power to approximately the size of the wavelength of the light used

Explanation:

To be able to solve two structures with a light source, the Rayleigh criterion must be met that stable the two structures are solved when the first minimum of diffraction at one point is in the code of the first maximum of the other point

Using this criterion we can find an expression for the first minimization of the diffraction spectrum m = 1

     sin θ tea = λ / a

now the structure of the comatose has a separation of around 1 nm and the wavelength of visible light ranges from 400 to 700 nm, when substituting we find

           sin θ = 400/1 10

           sin θ  = 400

           sin θ  = 700/1

           sin θ  = 700

These values ​​are neither impossible since the sin function is bounded between -1 to 1, so we cannot see the diffraction

When reviewing the different statements, the correct one is: a diffraction limits the resolving power to approximately the size of the wavelength of the light used:

If you know all of the forces acting on a moving object, can you tell in which direction the object is moving? if the answer is
Montano1993 [528]

No, knowing all the forces is not enough to know the direction of motion.

<h3>How to use Newton's laws?</h3>

The second Newton's law states that:

F = m*a

This says <u><em>"force equals mass times acceleration".</em></u>

Where acceleration is the rate of change of the speed. From that equation, we conclude that the acceleration is in the same direction that the net force.

So, if we know all the forces acting on an object, we know the net force acting on it, then we know the direction of the acceleration.

<h3>Is this enough to know the direction in which it is moving?</h3>

No, the object does not need to move in the same direction than its acceleration, the direction of motion will also depend on the initial velocity of the object (if it is initially moving with constant speed).

If we don't know that, we can't find the direction of motion.

An example of this can be a car going at 100km/h east-wise.

Then we apply a net force due west, then we have an acceleration due west. But as the initial direction of motion was east, the car will still move to the east, but the velocity will decrease gradually.

So as you can see in that example, we need to know the initial velocity to know the direction in which the object is moving.
