Answer: The correct answer is "interference".

Explanation:

Interference: It is a phenomenon in which there is a superposition or a overlapping of the waves occur in the same medium. The resulting wave may have minimum amplitude or maximum amplitude. The interference can be : constructive and destructive depending on the amplitude of the resulting wave.

When the frequencies of the waves are not identical but they are similar interfere then the resulting wave is a beat frequency. Beat frequency is a pulsing sound. It goes up and down in loudness.

When you listen to the radio, you hear two stations at once. This interaction of this wave is interference.

Therefore, the correct option is (B).

Why is Earth’s North Pole a geographic north pole but a south seeking pole magnetically?

natima [27]

Answer:It is actually the South Magnetic pole

Explanation:The magnetic pole near earth's geographic north pole is actually the south magnetic pole. When it comes to magnets, opposites attract. This fact means that the north end of a magnet in a compass is attracted to the south magnetic pole, which lies close to the geographic north pole.

A force of 45 newtons is applied on an object, moving it 12 meters away in the same direction as the force. What is the magnitud

NARA [144]

<h2>Answer: 540 J</h2>

Explanation:

The Work $W$ done by a Force $F$ refers to the release of potential energy from a body that is moved by the application of that force to overcome a resistance along a path.

Now, when the applied force is constant and the direction of the force and the direction of the movement are parallel, the equation to calculate it is:

$W=(F)(d)$ (1)

In this case both (the force and the distance in the path) are parallel (this means they are in the same direction), so the work $W$ performed is the product of the force exerted to push the box $F=45N$ by the distance traveled $d=12m$ .

Hence:

$W=(45N)(12m)$ (2)

$W=540Nm=540J$

Let the displacement function of a particle is x(t)=(20t^2-15t+200). Find the total displacement, instantaneous velocity and ins

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

A.) 39.5 m

B.) 0

C.) 60m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that a displacement function of a particle is x(t)=(20t^2-15t+200).

To Find the total displacement,

Reduce everything by dividing them by 5

X(t) = 4t^2 - 3t + 40 ...... (1)

For instantaneous velocity, differentiate x(t). That is,

dy/dt = 60t - 15 ...... (2)

But dy/dt = velocity.

If dy/dt = 0, then

60t - 15 = 0

60t = 15

t = 15/60

t = 0.25s

Substitutes t in equation (1)

Total displacement will be

X(t) = 4(0.25)^2 - 3(0.25) + 40

X(t) = 0.25 - 0.75 + 40

Total displacement = 39.5 m

To calculate instantaneous velocity, substitute t into equation (2)

V = 60 (0.25) - 15

V = 0.

and to find instantaneous acceleration, differentiate dv/dt

dv/dt = 60

Therefore, acceleration = 60 m/s^2

when an object moves with constant velocity, does its average velocity during any time interval differ from its instataneous vel

BigorU [14]

For a constant-velocity object, the average and instantaneous are the same. So the answer is no. It's like taking a running average of a string of numbers that are all the same number. The average is always the sum of the numbers divided by how many have accumulated, which will always equate to the repeated number.
