Answer;

A. two glass marbles bounce off each other.

Explanation;

Elastic collisions are collisions in which both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. The total system kinetic energy before the collision equals the total system kinetic energy after the collision. If total kinetic energy is not conserved, then the collision is referred to as an inelastic collision.

An elastic collision occurs when the two objects "bounce" apart when they collide. Two rubber balls are a good example. In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. Almost no energy is lost to sound, heat, or deformation.

Two light waves, initially emitted in phase, will interfere constructively with maximum amplitude if the path-length difference
777dan777 [17]

Two light waves will interfere constructively if the path-length difference between them is a whole number.

<h3>SUPERPOSITION</h3>

The principle of superposition state that, when two or more waves meet at a point, the resultant displacement at that point is equal to the sum of the displacements of the individual waves at that point.

Interference of waves can either be constructive, or destructive.

The two light waves, initially emitted in phase, will interfere constructively with maximum amplitude if the path-length difference between them is a whole number of wavelenght 1λ, 2λ, 3λ, 4λ etc

The equivalent phase differences between the waves will be 2\pi or 360 degrees, 4\pi or 720 degrees, 6\pi 1080 degrees etc

Therefore, the two light waves, initially emitted in phase, will interfere constructively with maximum amplitude if the path-length difference between them is a whole number.

How do scientists know our universe is older than 6500 years?
dmitriy555 [2]
<span>This is because astronomers have discovered that the Crab Nebula is 6500 light years from earth. This means it takes 6500 earth years for light to get from the Crab Nebula to earth. Therefore, if we are able to observe the Crab Nebula and beyond it then it means that earth has been in existence for 6500 years and over.  </span>
