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>

How do mass and distance affect gravity?

elixir [45]

A gravitational force between objects depends on two things- their masses and the distance between them. So the greater the mass and the less distance there is, the more gravitational force and is the mass is less and the distance is great the gravitational force is weak

Which property of matter allows convection currents to form

USPshnik [31]

Convection currents are formed due to the density difference between layers of fluid. The heated layers rise up because their density is less than that of the colder layers. Hope this helps!

True or false the refraction of a wave is how many wavelengths pass a fixed point each second

Ksenya-84 [330]

False. That description fits the wave's 'frequency'.
It has nothing to do with refraction.
