Answer:

Destructive interference

Explanation:

Destructive interference occurs when waves come together in such a way that they completely cancel each other out. When two waves interfere destructively, they must have the same amplitude in opposite directions.

If a moving car speeds up until it is going twice as fast, how much kinetic energy doe s it have compared with its initial kinet

dezoksy [38]

The kinetic energy of an object of mass m and velocity v is given by
$K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Let's call $v_i$ the initial speed of the car, so that its initial kinetic energy is
$K_i = \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2$
where m is the mass of the car.

The problem says that the car speeds up until its velocity is twice the original one, so
$v_f = 2 v_i$
and by using the new velocity we can calculate the final kinetic energy of the car
$K_f = \frac{1}{2} mv_f^2 = \frac{1}{2}m (2 v_i)^2 = 4 ( \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2)=4 K_i$
so, if the velocity of the car is doubled, the new kinetic energy is 4 times the initial kinetic energy.

When all else remains the same, what effect would decreasing the focal length have on a convex lens?

aniked [119]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

<u>It would make the lens stronger. </u>

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

The focal length is the distance between the optical center or the center of the lens to the focal point of a convex or concave lens.
The power of the convex lens is lens ability to undertake refraction or bend light. It is given as the reciprocal of focal length.
Power of the lens = 1/ f; therefore the smaller the focal length the higher the power and the larger the focal length the lower the power.
Thus; decreasing the focal length of a convex lens makes the lens stronger.
