Two waves meet and interfere

Physics
1 answer:
Illusion [34]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

b. amplitude

Explanation:

There are two types of intereference:

- Constructive interference: it occurs when two waves of same frequency meet at a point in phase - this means , the crest of one wave meets with the crest of the other wave. When this occurs, the resultant wave has an amplitude which is equal to the sum of the amplitudes of the two waves.

- Destructive interference: it occurs when two waves of same frequency meet at a point in opposite phase - this means , the crest of one wave meets with the trough of the other wave. When this occurs, the resultant wave has an amplitude which is equal to the difference between the amplitudes of the two waves.

When interference occurs, the other factors of the waves (period, frequency and wavelength) do not change.

A particle executes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 2.18 cm.
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

The positive displacement from the midpoint of its motion at the speed equal one half of its maximum speed is 3.56 cm.

Explanation:

Maximum speed is  :

                          v (max) = Aω

Speed v at any displacement y is given by  

v^{2} = w^{2} (A^{2} - y^{2})   ........................................................  i

And,

               v = \frac{1}{2} v (max)  

          or,  2 × v = Aω     ....................................................   ii

Eliminating  ω from equations i and ii,

                       \frac{1}{4} A^{2}  w^{2}  =  w^{2}  ( A^{2}  - y^{2})

                     or, y^{2} =  (\frac{3}{4}) A^{2}  =(\frac{3}{4}) 2.18^{2}

                    or,  y =  3.56 cm.
