Which wave property changes when two waves interfere in the same medium?

1 answer:

3 0

<span>When two waves of same frequency travel in a medium simultaneously in the same direction then, due to their superposition, the resultant intensity at any point of the medium is different from the sum of intensities of the two waves. At certain points the intensity of the resultant wave has a large value while at some points it has a very small or zero. This is called wave interference.</span>

as the video shows, the star begins its life from a clump of gas that heats up as it contracts. where does the energy that heats

MAXImum [283]

When water vapor condenses during the formation of clouds, energy is released into the atmosphere through the process of latent heating.

Huge amounts of solar energy are absorbed during the evaporation process. There is no thermal equilibrium in protostars. They emit radiation that causes them to lose energy, but their interior temperatures aren't hot enough to start nuclear fusion to replenish the energy. They consequently tighten and warm up. Fusion can replace the energy they are losing once they are heated enough on the inside (about 107 K). The gas atoms start to collide more and get closer together as the cloud gets smaller, which warms them up. The cloud keeps shrinking and heating up until the force of gravity is balanced by the pressure from the heat.

Saturn has an orbital period of 29.46 years. In two or more complete sentences, explain how to calculate the average distance fr

soldi70 [24.7K]

$Given:\\T=29.46y\approx 9.29\cdot 10^8s\\M_S\approx2.0\cdot 10^{30}kg\\G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} \frac{m^3}{kg\cdot s^2} \\\\Find:\\R=?\\\\Solution:\\\\F_g= G\frac{mM_s}{R^2} \\\\F_c= \frac{mv^2}{R} \\\\F_g=F_c\\\\G\frac{mM_s}{R^2}=\frac{mv^2}{R} \Rightarrow G\frac{M_s}{R^2}=\frac{v^2}{R}\\\\v=\omega r\\\\G\frac{M_s}{R^2}= \frac{\omega^2R^2}{R}\Rightarrow G\frac{M_s}{R^2}=\omega^2R \\\\\omega= \frac{2 \pi }{T} \\\\G\frac{M_s}{R^3}= \frac{4 \pi ^2}{T^2}$

$GM_ST^2=4 \pi ^2R^3\Rightarrow R= \sqrt[3]{ \frac{GM_ST^2}{4 \pi ^2} }\\\\\\R= \sqrt[3]{ \frac{6.67\cdot 10^{-11} \frac{m^3}{kg\cdot s^2}\cdot2.0\cdot 10^{30}kg( 9.29\cdot 10^8s)^2}{4\cdot 3.14^2} } \approx 1.42\cdot 10^{12}m$

Determine if the data are qualitative, quantitative, or neither. Zinc is a silver-gray metal. Chlorine has a density of 3.2 g/L.

AysviL [449]

Qualitative data gives the information of quality which can not be measured in numbers. For example: Color of eyes, softness of skin.

Quantitative data is information of quantity that can be represented in numbers. For example length and mass of any object.

Zinc is a silver-gray metal is a qualitative data, here silver gray color is quality of zinc metal which can not be measured in numbers.

Chlorine has a density of 3.2 g/L is a quantitative data. The value of density can be compared with other elements by comparing the numbers.

Gallium is not found in nature is neither qualitative nor quantitative.

Nitrogen has a melting point of –210.00 °C is a quantitative data because this is expressed in numbers.

Aluminum is a solid is a qualitative data because it tells about the state of element which can not be measured in numbers.

Shelby the Skater's rocket provides a forward force of

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

$a=3.17\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Force force acting on the Skater's rocket is 220 N

Resistive force acting on it, F' = 30 N

Mass of Shelby, m = 60 kg

We need to find the acceleration of Shelby. Net force acting on Shelby is given by :

Net force = 220-30

= 190 N

The formula of net force is :

F = ma

a is acceleration of Shelby

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{190}{60}\\\\a=3.17\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of Shelby is $3.17\ m/s^2$

If one doubles the emfs in a circuit and doubles the resistances in the circuit at the same time, what happens to the currents t

bija089 [108]

Answer:

Same

Explanation:

Let R be the resistance of the cell and E be the emf.

Let i be the current in the circuit.

i = E / R ..... (1)

Now emf and resistance be doubled.

so, i' = 2E/2R = E/R

So, i' = i (From equation (1)

Current remains same.
