Two waves meet and interfere

Physics
1 answer:
Illusion [34]2 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.

2. Three blocks, A,B and C of mass 2kg. 3kg. 5kg respectively kept side by side with one another are accelerated at 2m/s2 across
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Total mass of combination = 2+3+5 = 10kg.

Acceleration produced = 2m/s^2

hence force =( total mass × acceleration)= (2×10)= 20 N.

Net force on 3kg block = acceleration × mass = (2 × 2 )= 4 N

applied force on 2 kg block = 20N

Force between 2 kg and 3 kg block = (20-4) = 16N. ans

Net force on 3 kg block = 3 × 2 =6N.

Applied force on 3 kg block due to 2 kg block = 16N.

hence, force between 3 kg and 5 kg block = (16-6) = 10N .

answers:-

(a) 20 N

(b) 16N

(c) 10 N

An object has the acceleration graph shown in (Figure 1). Its velocity at t=0s is vx=2.0m/s. Draw the object's velocity graph fo
timama [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

We may notice that change in velocity can be obtained by calculating areas between acceleration lines and horizontal axis ("Time"). Mathematically, we know that:

v_{b}-v_{a} = \int\limits^{t_{b}}_{t_{a}} {a(t)} \, dt

v_{b} = v_{a}+ \int\limits^{t_{b}}_{t_{a}} {a(t)} \, dt

Where:

v_{a}, v_{b} - Initial and final velocities, measured in meters per second.

t_{a}, t_{b} - Initial and final times, measured in seconds.

a(t) - Acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

Acceleration is the slope of velocity, as we know that each line is an horizontal one, then, velocity curves are lines with slopes different of zero. There are three region where velocities should be found:

Region I (t = 0 s to t = 4 s)

v_{4} = 2\,\frac{m}{s}  +\int\limits^{4\,s}_{0\,s} {\left(-2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)} \, dt

v_{4} = 2\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(-2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (4\,s-0\,s)

v_{4} = -6\,\frac{m}{s}

Region II (t = 4 s to t = 6 s)

v_{6} = -6\,\frac{m}{s}  +\int\limits^{6\,s}_{4\,s} {\left(1\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)} \, dt

v_{6} = -6\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(1\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (6\,s-4\,s)

v_{6} = -4\,\frac{m}{s}

Region III (t = 6 s to t = 10 s)

v_{10} = -4\,\frac{m}{s}  +\int\limits^{10\,s}_{6\,s} {\left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)} \, dt

v_{10} = -4\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (10\,s-6\,s)

v_{10} = 4\,\frac{m}{s}

Finally, we draw the object's velocity graph as follows. Graphic is attached below.

What requirement must a force acting on a object satisfy in order for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Simple harmonic motion is the movement of a body or an object to and from an equilibrium position. In a simple harmonic motion, the maximum displacement (also called the amplitude) on one side of the equilibrium position is equal to the maximum displacement.

The force acting on an object must satisfy Hooke's law for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion. The law states that the force must be directed always towards the equilibrium position and also directly proportional to the distance from this position.

A fluid in an aquifer is 23.6 m above a reference datum, the fluid pressure (in gage pressure) is 4390 n/m2 and the flow velocit
Phoenix [80]

As per Bernuolli's Theorem total energy per unit mass is given as

\frac{P}{\rho} + \frac{1}{2}v^2 + gH = E

now from above equation

P = 4390 N/m^2

\rho = 0.999 * 10^3

v = 7.22 * 10^{-4} m/s

H = 23.6 m

now by above equation

\frac{4390}{0.999*10^3} + \frac{1}{2}*(7.22*10^{-4})^2 + 9.8*23.6 = E

E = 235.7 J/kg

Part B)

Now energy per unit weight

U = \frac{E}{g}

U = \frac{235.7}{9.8}

U = 24 m
