Answer: A, C and D
Explanation:
Interference occurs when two waves superimpose to form a wave having a smaller or larger amplitude.
Constructive interference is said to occur when two waves superimpose to produce a wave having larger amplitude. It occurs for the waves having phase difference of multiple of 2π. On the other hand, destructive interference occurs for the waves having phase difference π, 3π, ..and so on.
In the given picture, the bright regions represent constructive interference where as the dark ones between them represent destructive interference. Thus, the correct letters representing constructive interference are: A, C and D.
'H' = height at any time
'T' = time after both actions
'G' = acceleration of gravity
'S' = speed at the beginning of time
Let's call 'up' the positive direction.
Let's assume that the tossed stone is tossed from the ground, not from the tower.
For the stone dropped from the 50m tower:
H = +50 - (1/2) G T²
For the stone tossed upward from the ground:
H = +20T - (1/2) G T²
When the stones' paths cross, their <em>H</em>eights are equal.
50 - (1/2) G T² = 20T - (1/2) G T²
Wow ! Look at that ! Add (1/2) G T² to each side of that equation,
and all we have left is:
50 = 20T Isn't that incredible ? ! ?
Divide each side by 20 :
<u>2.5 = T</u>
The stones meet in the air 2.5 seconds after the drop/toss.
I want to see something:
What is their height, and what is the tossed stone doing, when they meet ?
Their height is +50 - (1/2) G T² = 19.375 meters
The speed of the tossed stone is +20 - (1/2) G T = +7.75 m/s ... still moving up.
I wanted to see whether the tossed stone had reached the peak of the toss,
and was falling when the dropped stone overtook it. The answer is no ... the
dropped stone was still moving up at 7.75 m/s when it met the dropped one.
If the resistance in a circuit remains constant and the current increases, then the power will increase. <em>(A)</em>
In fact, it'll increase as fast as the <em><u>square</u></em> of the current ! Like, if the current somehow increases to 3 times as much, the circuit will start using <u><em>9 times</em></u> as much power as it did before.
