Two identical waves are traveling toward each other in the same medium. One has a positive amplitude, meaning that its peaks onl

y go upward, and the other wave has a negative amplitude, with peaks going downward.
What will occur when the waves peak at the same place at the same time?

constructive interference
destructive interference
a reflecting wave
wave refraction

The correct answer is Destructive Interference.

Consider the image attached below. Two waves are travelling towards each other. Blue wave always has a positive peak and the red wave always has a negative peak.

Now imagine these waves are moving through a rope. If blue waves will try to move the rope in positive direction, the red wave will pull it down, and thus the two waves will cancel the effect of each other. Thus resulting in a destructive interference.

A firecracker breaks up into three pieces, one of which has a mass of 200 g and flies off along the x-axis with a speed of 82.0
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

|P_3|=21.242m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass m=200g=0.2

Speed v=82.0m/s

Mass M_2=300g=0.3kg

Speed V_2=45.0m/s

Generally the equation for Magnitude of the Third piece is mathematically given by

P_1+P_2+P_3=0

|P_3|=|P_1+P_2|

Where

P_1=m_1v_1

P_1=0.2*82

P_1=16.4kgm/s

And

P_2=0.3*45

P_2=13.5kgm/s

Therefore

|P_3|=\sqrt{16.4^2+13.5^2}

|P_3|=21.242m/s

Which quantities indicate a direction and a magnitude?<br>Check all that apply.​
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Vector, in physics, a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. It is typically represented by an arrow whose direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude. Although a vector has magnitude and direction, it does not have position.

How could pig xenotransplantation affect humans?
Korolek [52]

It could cause them to catch animal disease

Explanation:

Xenotransplantation refers to the transplantation of organs or tissues between different species. E.g. Chimpanzee organ (liver) being transplanted into a human body would come under the category of xenotransplantation.

Pigs have come up as prospective organ donors since their organs and tissues are more or less to that of human’s. However, there are issues such as-

  1. Xenotransplantation of pig’s tissue into a human would allow easier passage for all types of zoonotic viruses.
  2. Moreover, if transgenic pigs are used instead of natural pigs it can lead to virus mutation as per the human body demands thus leading to increased susceptibility to human infection.

Thus,  engrafting of pig’s tissue in the human body poses a significant risk for humans of catching a zoonotic (animal) disease.

A4.00-kg box sits on a ramp that is inclined at 30°above the horizontal.The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and
enot [183]

From the calculation, we can see that the force that  moves the box forward is 5.7 N.

<h3>What is frictional force?</h3>

The term frictional force refers to the force that opposes motion. Given that;

ma = ukmgcosθ + F

Let F be the forward force.

Hence;

F = ma - ukmgcosθ

F = 4 * 3 - (0.32 * 4.00 * 9.8 * sin 30)

F =  5.7 N

A uniform steel girder of weight 22KN and of length 12m is lifted off the ground at one end by means of a crane. When the raised
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

For free body diagram see attached sheet .

W is weight of steel girder acting at the middle point of its length . T is tension in the cable .

OB = √ ( 12² - 2² )

= 11.83 m .

OC = 11.83 / 2 = 5.915 m

Taking moment of tension T and weight W about point O

W x OC = T x OB

22 x 5.915 = T x 11.83

T = 22 x 5.915 / 11.83

= 11 kN

Considering forces acting in vertical direction and equating forces in opposite direction

T + R = W

R = W - T

= 22 - 11 = 11 KN

So force of grinder on the ground = R

= 11 KN.
