Answer:

A. Constructive

B. Destructive

C. Destructive

D. Constructive

Explanation:

Constructive interference takes place at locations along the path of two superposed waves where the waves are in phase such that a high or low point of one of the waves corresponds with a high or low point of the other wave which gives a resulting wave amplitude which is the sum of the amplitudes of the individual waves

Destructive interference takes place at locations along the path of two superposed waves where one wave is out of phase with the other wave such that a high or low point of one of the waves coincides with a low or high point of the other wave respectively thereby cancelling the effect of the other wave and giving a resulting wave that has an amplitude which is the difference in the amplitudes of the individual waves

Therefore;

At point A, the peak of each wave partially coincides resulting in constructive interference

At point B, the peak of the blue wave and the trough of the red wave partially coincides resulting in destructive interference

At point C, the through of the blue wave and the peak of the back wave partially coincides resulting in destructive interference

At point D, the trough of each wave partially coincides resulting in constructive interference.

Olivia wants to find out whether a substance will fluoresce. She says she should put it in a microwave oven. Do you agree with h

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Disagree.
Fluoresce objects will only glow when put under actual Ultraviolet light. This is due to the molecules becoming excited by the ultraviolet radiation.

Microwaves give micro-waves that are present in another spectrum of wave length and will not be able to fluoresce the molecules. If it’s not “ultra violet “.... it’s not going to glow.

A) An automobile light has a 1.0-A current when it is connected to a 12-V battery. Determine the resistance of the light.

kirill [66]

Answer:

The resistance in first case is 12 Ω, power delivered is 12 W, and potential difference is 0.01 V

Explanation:

Given:

(A)

Current $I = 1$ A

Voltage $V = 12$ V

For finding the resistance,

$V = IR$

$R = \frac{V}{I}$

$R = \frac{12}{1}$

$R =$ 12Ω

(B)

For finding power delivered,

$P = I^{2} R$

$P = (1) ^{2} \times 12$

$P = 12$ Watt

(C)

For finding the potential difference,

$V = IR$

$V = 5 \times 10^{-3} \times 2$

$V = 10 \times 10^{-3}$

$V = 0.01$ V

Therefore, the resistance in first case is 12 Ω, power delivered is 12 W, and potential difference is 0.01 V

A 110-g bullet is fired from a rifle having a barrel 0.636 m long. Choose the origin to be at the location where the bullet begi

astraxan [27]

Data:
mass = 110-g bullet
d = 0.636 m
Force = 13500 + 11000x - 25750x^2, newtons.

a) Work, W

W = ∫( F* )(dx) =∫[13500+ 11000x - 25750x^2] (dx) =

W = 13500x + 5500x^2 - 8583.33 x^3 ] from 0 to 0.636 =

W = 8602.6 joule

b) x= 1.02 m

W = 13500x + 5500x^2 - 8583.33 x^3 ] from 0 to 1.02

W = 10383.5

c) %

[W in b / W in a] = 10383.5 / 8602.6 = 1.21 => W in b is 21% more than work in a.
