Why will interference occur

Physics
1 answer:
den301095 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Two waves interfere when they run into each other.

The barrier reflects waves that run straight into it. It acts as a wave source and sends wave pulses back up the page towards the incoming waves.

Imagine a loose string tied to a wall. Someone sends two consecutive pulses along the string towards the wall. The first pulse gets reflected right away. It will travel backward towards the person holding the string. Along its way, it will run into the second pulse. The two pulses will interfere. The wall will make the reflected pulse out of phase with the second one. They will end up creating a destructive interference.

So is the case with the water waves running into the barrier. The barrier will send incoming waves back toward where they came from. Reflected waves interfere with incoming ones.

If the western component of the wind is half of the south, what is the angle of the wind with the south?
den301095 [7]

Answer:

This above a triangle that models our situation.

Explanation:

We have a two componens., since we have a western componet and southern component. One travel in a southern direction. and the other travel in the west.

Let the component that travel in the south be the length of a.

According to the problem, the westard component is half of that so let that length be a/2.

Now we must find the angle of the wind in the South.

This means that what is angle that is opposite of the western componet because that angle is the most southward angle. So know we apply the tan property.

\tan(x)  =  \frac{opp}{adj}

Our side opposite of the angle we trying to find is the western component and the side adjacent to it is the southern component. Also remeber since western and Southern negative displacements, we have

\tan(x)  =  \frac{ -  \frac{a}{2} }{ - a}

\tan(x)  =  -  \frac{a}{2}  \times  -  \frac{1}{a}  =  \frac{1}{2}

Now we take the arctan or inverse tan of 1/2.

\tan {}^{ - 1} ( \frac{1}{2} )  = 26.57

Scientists can use the location and depth of where a fossil is found to estimate the age of the fossil. To do this, they use
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

C the Law of Superposition

Explanation:

Basically the law of Superposition is applied in this regard. The law states that "the oldest layer is on the bottom and the youngest layer is on top".

When we find fossils at a particular depth we can relatively date a rock based on the strata we find them. A fossil in place in bottom beds will be older than the one in the topmost layer. Fossils also succeed one another in a definite pattern according to the principle of fossil and fauna succession.

In each of the four situations below an object is experiencing (nearly) uniform circular motion. State what force is providing t
Stells [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that a centripetal force is a form of force that gives rise or causes a body to move in a curved path.

Hence;

1. When a car is being driven around a track, it is the FORCE OF FRICTION that is acting upon the turned wheels of the vehicle, which transforms into the centripetal force required for circular motion.

2. When a ball being is swung on the end of a string, TENSION FORCE acts upon the ball, which transforms the centripetal force required for circular motion.

3. When the moon is orbiting the earth, it is the FORCE OF GRAVITY acting upon the moon, which transforms the centripetal force required for circular motion.

4. A rotating wheel on the other hand has NO centripetal force because centripetal force is pull towards the center of a motion. However the speed of the object is tangent to the circle, while the direction of the force is also perpendicular to the direction of the rotating wheel.
