What is occurring when two waves traveling along the same medium meet and cancel each other out?

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Destructive interference

Explanation:

Destructive interference occurs when two waves traveling along the same medium meet and cancel each other out. The resultant wave has a smaller amplitude than the individual waves. In this case, the maxima of two waves are 180 degrees out of phase.

Hence, the correct option is (A) "destructive interference"

Assuming no air resistance, how far will a 0.0010 kg raindrop have fallen when it hits the ground 30.0 s later. Assume g = 9.8 m

Serga [27]

D = (1/2)·at²
where d is the distance fallen, a is the acceleration (g in this problem), and t is the time
d = (1/2)·(9.8 m/s²)·(30 s)² = (1/2)·(9.8)·(900) m
d = 4410 m
The answer is b) 4410 m

Note: the mass of the raindrop is irrelevant since the acceleration due to gravity is independent of mass. (Galileo's Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment)

4. The atmosphere is composed of about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% argon. Typical atmospheric pressure in Boulder, Colorado

ANS

Step 1 :Explanation of required formula.

According to Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures, the partial pressure of a component of a gaseous mixture depends on the mole ratio of said component and the total pressure of the gaseous mixture

i.e Pi=Xi × Ptotal,

Here we don't know exactly how many moles of the mixture we have,

but we know that 78.0% of all the molecules present in the mixture are nitrogen molecules, 21.0% are oxygen molecules, and 1% are molecules of Ar gas.

As we know, a mole is simply a very large collection of molecules. In order to have one mole of a substance, we need to have 6.022 × 1023 molecules of that substance.

This means that the actual number of moles is not important here, because the ratio that exists between the number of molecules is equivalent to the ratio that exists between the number of moles.

Hence,

Step 2 : Calculate of mole fraction of the mixture.

mole fraction of nitrogen = 78 /100 = 0.78

mole fraction of O2 =

21 /100 = 0.21

mole fraction of Argon =

1 /100 = 0.01.

Step 3 : Calculate the pressure contributed by each of the mixture.

The pressure contributed by N2 = mole fraction of N2 × Total pressure = 0.78 × 0.83 atm = 0.6474 atm

The pressure contributed by O2 = 0.21 × 0.83 atm = 0.1743 atm

The pressure contributed by N2 = 0.01 × 0.83 atm = 0.0083 atm.

Thank You !!!!!!
