<span>Two sound waves of equal amplitude interfere so that the compression of one wave falls on the rarefaction of the other. The statement which is true is that A. no sound is heard.
These waves interfere, which means that their equal amplitudes match and thus cancel each other out, which is why there is no sound.

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

A.No sound is heard.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Interference of a wave is the property a wave that occurs when two waves travelling in the same medium meet at a point or superpose at a point in the medium.</u></em>
  • Interference may be constructive or destructive. Constructive occurs when two identical waves travelling in the same medium in phase meet at a point. The resulting wave has twice the amplitude of the individual waves.
  • <u><em>Destructive interference occurs when two waves travelling in the same medium meet and out of phase. The resulting amplitude will be zero if the initial waves are identical, or the difference between the amplitude of the original waves if they are not identical.</em></u>
  • In this case,<em><u> the two sound waves are out of phase since the compression of one wave falls on the rarefaction of the other, and thus these waves cancel out and the resulting amplitude is zero and hence no sound will be heard.</u></em>

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

a) A = 4.0 m , b)   w = 3.0 rad / s , c)  f = 0.477 Hz , d) T = 20.94 s

Explanation:

The equation that describes the oscillatory motion is

          x = A cos (wt + fi)

In the exercise we are told that the expression is

          x = 4.0 cos (3.0 t + 0.10)

let's answer the different questions

a) the amplitude is

         A = 4.0 m

b) the frequency or angular velocity

         w = 3.0 rad / s

c) angular velocity and frequency are related

          w = 2π f

           f = w / 2π

           f = 3 / 2π

           f = 0.477 Hz

d) the period

frequency and period are related

           T = 1 / f

           T = 1 / 0.477

           T = 20.94 s

e) the phase constant

          Ф = 0.10 rad

f) velocity is defined by

          v = dx / dt

         

         v = - A w sin (wt + Ф)

speed is maximum when sine is + -1

         v = A w

          v = 4 3

          v = 12 m / s

g) the angular velocity is

          w² = k / m

          k = m w²

          k = 1.2 3²

          k = 10.8 N / m

h) the total energy of the oscillator is

          Em = ½ k A²

           Em = ½ 10.8 4²

          Em = 43.2 J

i) the potential energy is

           Ke = ½ k x²

for t = 0 x = 4 cos (0 + 0.1)

               x = 3.98 m

j) kinetic energy

           K = ½ m v²

for t = 00.1 ²

    v = A w sin 0.10

    v = 4 3 sin 0.10

    v = 1.98 m / s

Aleks04 [339]

Answer: Option A : Technician A

Explanation:

The statement/observation, "that the starter motor used to crank diesel engines can draw up to 400 amps of current" made by Technician A is correct.

A diesel engine uses up to 400+ Amperes of electricity to start up a diesel engine in the ignition chamber of motor engine.

Compare and contrast fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs.
dezoksy [38]

Incandescent light is a glowing white light produced by heat. An incandescent light bulb works by heating a filament in the bulb. Fluorescent light is a bright light produced by electricity flowing through a tube filled with ionized gas. Fluorescent light bulbs are more energy-efficient than incandescent bulbs
