Answer:

Noise cancelling headphones have a microphone which listens to the ambient noise. The headphone then processes the sound and provides a wave to produce destructive interference. This cancels the ambient noise.

Explanation:

First, let us understand what interference is. Interference is the phenomenon that occurs when two waves superpose to form a wave which has a different wavelength, frequency, amplitude than the original two waves. When the crest of one wave superposes with the other waves crest then this results in the amplitude increasing. This is known as constructive interference. When the crest of one wave superposes with the other waves trough then this results in the amplitude decreasing. This known as destructive interference.

Why is it safe to watch an eclipse of the Moon but not an eclipse of the Sun
gavmur [86]
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon crosses in front of the Sun, blocking some or all of its rays. A lunar eclipse happens when the moon is directly behind the earth, blocking the moon from receiving light. The only light comes from the light on earth's reflected shadow.

You can look at a lunar eclipse because there is very little light or none at all. You can't look at a solar eclipse because you are looking directly at the sun unless it is complete. Before totality, only some of the Sun is blocked, causing your pupils dilate to let in more light. Since they do this, more of the Sun's rays can be let in to the eye, which effectively allows your eyes to burn. 

Some doctors and eye care specialists say that after someone complains of blindness after looking at a solar eclipse unaided, they can see what the Sun and moon looked like at the time that they looked at it, as it is burned onto their retinas.

The kinetic energy of an object is increased by a factor of 4 . By what factor is the magnitude of its momentum changed?(a) 16(b
maw [93]

The kinetic energy of an object is increased by a factor of 4 . By what factor is the magnitude of its momentum changed: 2.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>
  • A particle or an item that is in motion has a sort of energy called kinetic energy. An item accumulates kinetic energy when work, which involves the transfer of energy, is done on it by exerting a net force.
  • Kinetic energy comes in five forms: radiant, thermal, acoustic, electrical, and mechanical.
  • The energy of a body in motion, or kinetic energy (KE), is essentially the energy of all moving objects. Along with potential energy, which is the stored energy present in objects at rest, it is one of the two primary types of energy.
  • Explain that a moving object's mass and speed are two factors that impact the amount of kinetic energy it will possess.

The kinetic energy of an object is increased by a factor of 4 . By what factor is the magnitude of its momentum changed: 2.
