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.

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the specific heat of material be s

heat lost by material = m₁ s (T 1 - T ) ,  (T 1 - T ) is fall in temp , m₁ is mass of material

= .45 x s x (91 - 31.4 )

= 26.82 s

Heat gained by water

= m₂ cw (T2 - T )

1.3 x 4186 x ( 31.4 - 23 )

heat lost = heat gained

m₂ cw (T2 - T ) = m₁ s (T 1 - T )

1.3 x 4186 x ( 31.4 - 23 ) =  .45 x s x (91 - 31.4 )

45711.12 = 26.82 s

s = 1704.36

Throw two balls from the same height at the same time at an initial speed of 20 m/s. One is thrown vertically down, while the ot
labwork [276]

The time difference between their landing is 2.04 seconds.

<h3>Time of difference of the two balls</h3>

The ball thrown vertical upwards will take double of the time taken by the ball thrown vertically downwards.

Time difference, = 2t - t = t

t = √(2h/g)

where;

  • h is the height of fall
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

Apply the principle of conservation of energy;

¹/₂mv² = mgh

h = v²/2g

where;

  • v is speed of the ball

h = (20²)/(2 x 9.8)

h = 20.41 m

<h3>Time of motion</h3>

t = √(2 x 20.41 / 9.8)

t = 2.04 s

Thus, the time difference between their landing is 2.04 seconds.

Why does a lone pair of electrons occupy more space around a central atom than a bonding pair of electrons?
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The lone pair of electrons occupy more space because the electrostatic force becomes weaker.

Explanation:

When there is a bond pair of electrons in the 2 positively charged the atomic nuclei draw the electron density towards them, thereby reducing the bond diameter.

In the case of the lone pair, only 1 nucleus is present, and the enticing electrostatic force becomes weaker and the intensity of the electrons will be increases. Therefore, the lone pair occupies more space than the pair of bonds.

I don’t know why it glitches like that???? I need help tho...brainliest for best answer
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

B. They each contain the same amount of matter.

Explanation:

Scientifically, mass is the amount of matter in an object.

A. Whether an object is big or small does not mean that it will be a certain mass. If you have two objects that are the same size, the denser object will have more mass, and the less dense object will have less mass.

C. The amount of space an object takes up is called the volume.

D. Different combinations and amounts of elements can give you the same mass. Rocks, books and cans of soda are made of different things.

How does the nucleus of an atom change when it emits an alpha or beta particle?
maria [59]
First of all, an alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons (similar to a Helium atom). When an atom emits an alpha particle, its nucleus loses two protons and two neutrons. And its total mass decreases by 4 atomic mass units.(As mass of a proton or a neutron is 1 amu)

There are two kinds of beta emissions (or particles) positron or electron. 

When an atom emits a { \beta  }^{ + } (positron) particle, actually one if its protons releases the particle. Since a positron's charge is positive, when the atom releases a positron it loses its positive charge and turns into a neutron.

When an atom emits a { \beta  }^{ - } (electron) particle, one of its neutrons releases a { \beta  }^{ - } (electron). And since an electron's charge is negative (-) the neutron loses its negative charge (since neutron's electrical charge is neutral) and turns into a proton.

This is simply explained ^ 

There are some other details but this should be enough :)
