Since sinusoidal waves are cyclical, a particular phase difference between two waves is identical to that phase difference plus

a cycle. For example, if two waves have a phase difference of \frac{\pi}{4}, the interference effects would be the same as if the two waves had a phase difference of \frac{\pi}{4} + 2\pi. The complete criterion for constructive interference between two waves is therefore written as follows:
{\rm phase\ difference} = 0 + 2 \pi n \qquad {\rm for\ any\ integer}\ n
Write the full criterion for destructive interference between two waves.

Answer:

For destructive interference phase difference is

(2n+1)\pi where n∈ Whole numbers

Explanation:

For sinusoidal wave the interference affects the resultant intensity of the waves.

In the given example we have two waves interfering at a phase difference of \frac{\pi}{4} would lead to a constructive interference giving maximum amplitude at at the RMS value of the amplitude in resultant.

Also the effect is same as having a phase difference of  ( \frac{\pi}{4} + 2\pi) because after each 2π the waves repeat itself.

<em>In case of destructive interference the waves will be out of phase i.e. the amplitude vectors will be equally opposite in the direction at the same place on the same time as shown in figure.</em>

They have a phase difference of \pi or which is same as (2\pi+\pi)

Generalizing to:

a phase difference of (2n+1)\pi where n∈ {W}

{W}= set of whole numbers.

Which of these pairs of atoms are isotpoes? (Physical Science) Pair A Pair B Pair C # protons 6 8 5 2 12 12 # neutrons 8 8 5 3 1
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

I guess that the atoms are:

Protons:     6     8    5    2    12    12

Neutrons:  8     8     5   3     13    14

Now, two atoms are isotopes if they share the same number of protons (so both atoms are the same element) but they have a different number of neutrons.

From the given options, the only two that have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons are:

Protons 12, neutrons 13

and

Protons 12, neutrons 14.

These two are isiotopes.

What happens to the gravitational potential energy between two particles if the distance between them is halved? (a) It does not
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy between two particles, if the distance between them is halved, is multiplied by 4 (option c).

Explanation:

The gravitational force is the force of mutual attraction that two objects with mass experience.

The Law of Universal Gravitation enunciated by Newton says that every material particle attracts any other material particle with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them. Mathematically this is expressed as:

F=G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }

where m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, r the distance between them and G a universal constant that receives  the name of constant of gravitation.

If the distance between two particles is reduced by half, then, where F' is the new value of the gravitational force:

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{(\frac{r}{2} )^{2} }

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{2^{2} } }

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{4} }

F'=4*G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }

F'=4*F

You place a point charge q = -4.00 nC a distance of 9.00 cm from an infinitely long, thin wire that has linear charge density 3.
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N

Explanation:

Given:

  • quantity of point charge, q=-4\times 10^{-9}\ C
  • radial distance from the linear charge, r=0.09\ m
  • linear charge density, \lambda=3\times 10^{-9}\ C.m^{-1}

<u>We know that the electric field by the linear charge  is given as:</u>

E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi.\epsilon_0.r}

E=\frac{1}{2}\times 9\times 10^9\times \frac{3\times10^{-9}}{0.09}

E=150\ N.C^{-1}

<u>Now the force on the given charge can be given as:</u>

F=E.q

F=150\times 4\times 10^{-9}

F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N

Give an example of a compound machine. Explain how at least two simple machines are part of this complex machine.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Bicycle

Explanation:

A compound machine is a machine which is a combination of simple machines.

Simple machines are like the pulley, inclined plane or a screw.

Suppose a bicycle is considered, it has more than one simple machine combined together, for it to work. Wheel and axle is one of them and the beam which is pivoted at a fixed hinge is another simple machine in it.

The pedals of the bicycle function as the lever.
