Answer: The correct answer is destructive interference.

Explanation:

Interference is the phenomenon in which there is a superposition of the waves. If the amplitude of the resultant wave is more than the original wave then there will be constructive interference.

If the amplitude of the resultant wave is lower than the original wave then there will be destructive interference.

Suppose two waves collide and the temporary combined wave that results is smaller than the original waves.

Therefore, the correct option is b.

vagabundo [1.1K]
The characteristic of epithelial cells that makes them ideal for providing this type of protection is that the cells are packed tightly together. 
Skin, the body's largest organ,is our first and best defense against external aggressors. The many layers work hard to protect us, however when its condition is compromised, its ability to work as an effective barrier is impaired.

Magnesium Oxide Reaction
Verizon [17]

Answer:

When magnesium reacts with oxygen, it produces light bright enough to blind you temporarily. Magnesium burns so bright because the reaction releases a lot of heat. As a result of this exothermic reaction, magnesium gives two electrons to oxygen, forming powdery magnesium oxide (MgO).

When a man returns to his well-sealed house on a summer day, he finds that the house is at 35°C. He turns on the air conditioner
Paul [167]

Answer:

1353.38 Watt

Explanation:

T₁ = Initial temperature of the house = 35°C

T₂ = Final temperature of the house = 20°C

Δt = Time taken to cool the house = 38 min = 38×60 = 2280 s

m = mass of air in the house = 800 kg

Cv = Specific heat at constant volume = 0.72 kJ/kgK

Cp = Specific heat at constant pressure = 1.0 kJ/kgK

Heat removed

q = mCvΔT

⇒q = 800×720×(35-20)

⇒q = 8640000 J

Average rate of hear removal

Q=\frac{q}{\Delta t}\\\Rightarrow Q=\frac{8640000}{2280}\\\Rightarrow Q=3789.47\ W

COP=\frac{Q}{W}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{Q}{COP}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{3789.47}{2.8}\\\Rightarrow W=1353.38\ W

∴ Power drawn by the air conditioner is 1353.38 Watt

A sound wave travels in air toward the surface of a freshwater lake and enters into the water. The frequency of the sound does n
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity of sound in air at 20⁰C is 343 m /s

velocity of sound in water at 20⁰C is 1481 m /s

The wavelength of the sound is 2.86 m in the air so its frequency

= 343 / 2.86 = 119.93 .

This frequency of  119.93 will remain unchanged in water .

wavelength in water = velocity in water / frequency

= 1481 / 119.93

= 12. 35 m .
