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

A=A_1 -A_2 = 2.0 cm - 2.0 cm = 0.0 cm

A ball is kicked off of a roof at 23 m/s [R 25° U]. What is the height of
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Explanation:

Considering the fact that we ave been given an angle of inclination here, we best use it! That means that the velocity of 23 m/s is actually NOT the velocity we need; I tell my students that it is a "blanket" velocity but is not accurate in either the x or the y dimension of parabolic motion. In order to find the actual velocity in the dimension in which we are working, which is the y-dimension, we use the formula:

v_{0y}=v_0sin\theta and filling in:

v_{0y}=23sin(25) which gives us an upwards velocity of 9.7 m/s. So here's what we have to work with in its entirety:

v_{0y}=9.7m/s

a = -9.8 m/s/s

t = 2.8 seconds

Δx = ?? m

The one-dimensional motion equation that utilizes all of these variables is

Δx = v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2 and filling in:

Δx = 9.7(2.8)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(2.8)^2 I am going to do the math according to the correct rules of significant digits, so to the left of the + sign and to 2 sig fig, we have

Δx = 27 + \frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(2.8)^2 and then to the right of the + sign and to 2 significant digits we have

Δx = 27 - 38 so

Δx = -11 meters. Now, we all know that distance is not a negative value, but what this negative number tells us is that the ball fell 11 meters BELOW the point from which it was kicked, which is the same thing as being kicked from a building that is 11 meters high.

Michael is biking on a trail and is accelerating at a rate of 1.2 m/s/s for 15 seconds. He began this part of his ride with a ve
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Michael's final velocity is 19.62 m/s.    

Explanation:            

We can find the final velocity of Michael by using the following kinematic equation:

v_{f} = v_{0} + at   (1)    

Where:

v_{f}: is the final velocity =?

v_{0}: is the initial velocity = 1.62 m/s

a: is the acceleration = 1.2 m/s²

t: is the time = 15 s

By entering the above values into equation (1) we have:

v_{f} = 1.62 m/s + 1.2 m/s^{2}*15 s

v_{f} = 19.62 m/s

Therefore, Michael's final velocity is 19.62 m/s.

I hope it helps you!

A body is at equilibrium under the action of three forces. One force is 10N acting due east and one is 5N in the direction 60° n
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

If the body is in equilibrium the two forces add up and the third is the opposite of the resultant.

F(1x)=F(1)=10 N

F(2x)=F(2)cos60=5•0.5=2.5 N

F(2y) =F(2)sin60 = 5•0.866= 4.33 N

F(3x) =- F(x)=- (10+2.5 )= -12.5 N

F(3y) =- F(2y)= - 4.33 N

F(3) = sqrt{ F(3x)²+F(3y)²} =13.23 N

tan φ = F(3y)/F(3x) =4.33/12.5=0.364

φ = 19.1⁰ (south-west)
