A soccer ball is kicked from point Pi at an angle above a horizontal field. The ball follows an ideal path before landing on the
field at point Pf . Which of the following statements is true when the ball is at point X? A. The horizontal velocity vector points to the right & equals v cos θ.
B. The vertical velocity points up & equals v sin θ.
C. The acceleration vector points up.
D. The total velocity equals the initial velocity v.
A. The horizontal velocity vector points to the right & equals v cos θ.
Explanation:
The motion describes a parabolic path, where the horizontal speed is constant and the horizontal velocity vector always points to the right and equals v*cos θ.
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.
