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.

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.

Calculate the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

De broglie wavelength, \lambda = \frac{h}{mv}, where h is the Planck's constant,  m is the mass and v is the velocity.

h = 6.63*10^{-34}

Mass of hydrogen atom,  m = 1.67*10^{-27}kg

v = 440 m/s

Substituting

   Wavelength \lambda = \frac{h}{mv} = \frac{6.63*10^{-34}}{1.67*10^{-27}*440} = 0.902 *10^{-9}m = 902 *10^{-12}m

1 pm = 10^{-12}m\\ \\ So , \lambda =902 pm

So  the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s is 902 pm

<span>It stores energy and delivers it in a short burst.

The whirring sound is produced by the charging of the capacitor. A capacitor is an electrical component which is capable of storing charge. When the capacitor stores charge, it is storing energy. After doing so, the capacitor releases the electrical energy that it had stored as light energy, which is seen as the flash of the camera. It must do so in a burst, because the intensity of the flash is very high and would require a high amount of energy to maintain.
