Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem it will be necessary to apply the interference principle.

Under this principle interference is understood as a phenomenon in which two or more waves overlap to form a resulting wave of greater, lesser or equal amplitude. In this case, if both are at the same point, the result of the total displacement will be the sum of the individual displacements, therefore

x = \sum h_i\\\\x = 60cm + 80cm\\\\x =140cm

<h2>Therefore the resulting displacement above equilibrium is 140cm</h2>

Answer:

The resultant displacement is 140 cm

Explanation:

say first displacement d₁ is 60 cm

and second displacement d₂ is 80 cm

Resultant displacement = d₁ + d₂

= 60 + 80

= 140 cm

Which statement is true about a planet’s orbital motion?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Orbital motion results when the object’s forward motion is balanced by a second object’s gravitational pull.

Explanation:

The gravitational force is responsible for the orbital motion of the planet, satellite, artificial satellite, and other heavenly bodies in outer space.

When an object is applied with a velocity that is equal to the velocity of the orbit at that location, the body continues to move forward. And, this motion is balanced by the gravitational pull of the second object.

The orbiting body experience a centripetal force that is equal to the gravitational force of the second object towards the body.

The velocity of the orbit is given by the relation,

                                    V = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R + h} }

Where

                   V - velocity of the orbit at a height h from the surface

                    R - Radius of the second object

                    G - Gravitational constant

                    h - height from the surface

The body will be in orbital motion when its kinetic motion is balanced by gravitational force.

                         1/2 mV^{2} = GMm/R

Hence, the orbital motion results when the object’s forward motion is balanced by a second object’s gravitational pull.

A trombone plays a C3 note. If the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s and the wavelength of this note is
Umnica [9.8K]

The frequency of note C3 is 131 s^{-1}.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Frequency is the measure of repetition of same thing a certain number of times. So frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength. As wavelength is distance between two successive crests or troughs in a sound wave.

And frequency is the completion of number of cycles in a given time in sound waves. The frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other with velocity of sound being the proportionality constant.

Thus, here the speed of sound is given as 343 m/s, the wavelength of the note is also given as 2.62 m, then frequency will be as follows:

Frequency=\frac{speed of sound}{Wavelength of note}

Thus,

Frequency = \frac{343 m/s}{2.62 m} = 131 s^{-1}

So the frequency of note C3 is 131 s^{-1}.

3. Write any two types of force.​
Lerok [7]

Answer:

An <u>applied force</u> is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object. If a person is pushing a desk across the room, then there is an applied force acting upon the object. The applied force is the force exerted on the desk by the person.

A <u>friction force</u> is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing intermolecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an object can be calculated using the formula below:

F_{frict} = µ • F_{norm}
