The two waves shown here are the same distance from point x and are traveling toward each other

Answer:
A). 0.0 cm
Explanation:
When two waves travel and meet at the same point, a phenomenon known as interference occurs.
The two extreme cases of interference are the following:
- When two waves in phase meet at the same point, the resultant wave produced by the interference has amplitude which is the sum of the amplitude of the individual waves
- When two waves in anti-phase meet at the same point, the resultant wave produced by the interference has amplitude which is the difference between the amplitudes of the individual waves
In this problem, we have two waves of amplitde A1 = 2.0 cm and A2 = 2.0 cm that meet at X in anti-phase (because they have opposite displacement): therefore, it is a destructive interference, and the resultant amplitude will be

Here it is given that an elevator is moving down with an acceleration of 3.36 m/s² . And we are interested in finding out the apparent weight of a 64.2 kg man . For the diagram refer to the attachment .
- From the elevator's frame ( non inertial frame of reference) , we would have to think of a pseudo force.
- The direction of this force is opposite to the direction of acceleration the frame and its magnitude is equal to the product of mass of the concerned body with the acceleration of the frame .
- When a elevator accelerates down , the weight recorded is less than the actual weight .
From the Free body diagram ,
- Mass of the man = 64.2 kg
