How could two waves on a rope interfere so the rope does not move at all?

Physics

coldgirl [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

If a crest formed by one wave interferes with a trough formed by the other wave then the rope will not move at all.

Explanation:

Assume a straight rope tied to both ends is at rest. When a wave is created at one end of the rope, it travels to the other end of the rope through formation of alternative crest and trough. Due to these crest and trough the rope shifts up and down.

But when there are two waves travelling through the rope and both have opposite direction (directed towards one another) in such a way that crest formed by one wave is interfering with the trough formed by the other wave then due to this interference the waves will cancel the effects of each other on the rope and rope will be stable.

1.) A stone falls from rest from the top of a cliff.
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

ignore air resistance

Let t be the time of fall for the dropped stone.

½(9.8)t² = 43.12(t - 2.2) + ½(9.8)(t - 2.2)²

4.9t² = 43.12t - 94.864 + 4.9(t² - 4.4t + 4.84)

4.9t² = 43.12t - 94.864 + 4.9t² - 21.56t + 23.716

     0 = 21.56t - 71.148

t = 71.148/21.56 = 3.3 s

h = ½(9.8)3.3² = 53.361 = 53 m

or

h = 43.12(3.3 - 2.2) + ½(9.8)(3.3 - 2.2)² = 53.361 = 53 m

Rainwater draining from a neighborhood street initially travels at 4 ft/s through a pipe with a cross-sectional area of 15.7 ft2
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The  velocity  is v_2  =  0.96 \ ft/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The initial speed is  v_1  =  4 \ ft/s

   The  cross -sectional area of the first pipe is  A_1  =  15.7 \ ft

   The  cross -sectional area of the second pipe is A_2 =  65.4 \  ft

Generally from continuity equation we have that

     A_1 * v_1 =  A_2  * v_2

So  

     v_2  =  \frac{A_1 *  v_1  }{A_2 }

=>   v_2  =  \frac{15.7  *  4  }{65.4 }

=>   v_2  =  0.96 \ ft/s
