When more than one wave is in the same location at the same time, then there is _____ between the waves?

1 answer:

4 0

The sentence can be completed as follows:
"When more than one wave is in the same location at the same time, then there is interference between the waves"

In fact, when there are two or more waves in the same location at the same time, their amplitude sum together. The two extreme possibilities are:
- costructive interference: the two waves arrive on phase at the same location (=their crests arrive at the same location at the same time). In this case, the amplitudes of the waves sum together and the resultant wave has greater amplitude.
- destructive interference: the two waves arrive out of phase at the same location. In this case, the amplitudes of the two waves cancel out, and the resultant wave has amplitude zero.

At the nose of a missile in flight, the pressure and temperature are 5.6 atm and 850°R, respectively. Calculate the density and

Contact [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the definition of the ideal gas equation, where we will clear the density variable. In turn, the specific volume is the inverse of the density, so once the first term has been completed, we will simply proceed to divide it by 1. According to the definition of 1 atmosphere, this is equivalent in the English system to

$1atm = 2116lb/ft^2$

The ideal gas equation said us that,

PV = nRT

Here,

P = pressure

V = Volume

R = Gas ideal constant

T = Temperature

n = Amount of substance (at this case the mass)

Then

$\frac{n}{V} = \frac{P}{RT}$

The amount of substance per volume is the density, then

$\rho = \frac{P}{RT}$

Replacing with our values,

$\rho = \frac{5.6*2116}{1716*850}$

$\rho = 0.00812slug/ft^3$

Finally the specific volume would be

$v = \frac{1}{\rho}$

$v = 123ft^3/slug$

Suppose that you are holding a pencil balanced on its point. If you release the pencil and it begins to fall, what will be the a

Naily [24]

Answer:

The angular acceleration of the pencil α = 17 rad·s⁻²

Explanation:

Using Newton's second angular law or torque to find angular acceleration, we get the following expressions:

τ = I α (1)

W r = I α (2)

The weight is that the pencil has is,

sin 10 = r / (L/2)

r = L/2(sin(10))

The shape of the pencil can be approximated to be a cylinder that rotates on one end and therefore its moment of inertia will be:

I = 1/3 M L²

Thus,

mg(L / 2)sin(10) = (1/3 m L²)(α)

α(f) = 3/2(g) / Lsin(10)

α = 3/2(9.8) / 0.150sin(10)

α = 17 rad·s⁻²

Therefore, the angular acceleration of the pencil is 17 rad·s⁻²
