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:
"<span>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.</span>

Suppose earth's mass increased but earth's diameter didn't change. Describe how the gravitational force between Earth and the ob

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

It increases proportionally

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the Earth and an object on its surface is given by

$F=G\frac{Mm}{R^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the mass of the object

R is the Earth's radius

In this problem, the Earth's mass is increased, while the diameter (and therefore, the radius) doesn't change. From the equation, we see that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the Earth's mass: therefore, if the mass is increased, the force will increase as well by the same proportion (for example, if the mass is doubled, the force will double as well)

1. I drop a penny from the top of the tower at the front of Fort Collins High School and it takes 1.85 seconds to hit the ground

Svetradugi [14.3K]

You have three known variables:

Acceleration - $9.8m/s^2$
Time - $1.85s$
Initial Velocity - $0m/s$

For the first part of your question:

$v = u + at

v = (0)+(9.8)(1.1)

v = 10.78 m/s v=11 m/s (2 significant figures)$

For the second part of your question:

$v=u+at

v=(0)+(9.8)(1.85)
v=18.13 m/s

$

This still needs to be converted to m/h:

$18.13m/s = 18.13\times 3600 metres/h=65628 metres/hour

65628 metres/hour = 65628\div1600 mi/h = 40.7925 mi/h

= 41 mi/hr (2 significant figures)
$

Answer:

Superconducting materials can transport electrons with no resistance, and hence release no heat, sound, or other energy forms. Superconductivity occurs at a specific material's critical temperature (Tc). As temperature decreases, a superconducting material's resistance gradually decreases until it reaches critical temperature. At this point resistance drops off, often to zero, as shown in the graph at right.

What three variable factors determine the force of gravity between any two objects?

brilliants [131]

The force of gravity between two objects is:
F = G*m1*m2/r^2

So, it is dependent of the two masses and the distance between their centers of mass.
