Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
There are two types of interference possible when two waves meet at the same point:
- Constructive interference: this occurs when the two waves meet in phase, i.e. the crest (or the compression, in case of a longitudinale wave) meets with the crest (compression) of the other wave. In such a case, the amplitude of the resultant wave is twice that of the original wave.
- Destructive interferece: this occurs when the two waves meet in anti-phase, i.e. the crest (or the compression, in case of a longitudinal wave) meets with the trough (rarefaction) of the other wave. In this case, the amplitude of the resultant wave is zero, since the amplitudes of the two waves cancel out.
In this problem, we have a situation where the compression of one wave meets with the compression of the second wave, so we have constructive interference.
The particles of the medium (slinky in this case) move up and down (choice #2) in a transverse wave scenario.
This is the defining characteristic of transverse waves, like particles on the surface of water while a wave travels on it, or like particles in a slack rope when someone sends a wave through by giving it a jolt.
The other kind of waves is longitudinal, where the particles of the medium move "left-and-right" along the direction of the wave propagation. In the case of the slinky, this would be achieved by giving a tensioned slinky an "inward" jolt. You would see that such a jolt would give rise to a longitudinal wave traveling along the length of the tensioned slinky. Another example of longitudinal waves are sound waves.
Explanation:
In the given question, the two metal spheres were hanged with the nylon thread.
When these two spheres were brought close together, they attracted each other. The attraction between these spheres is the result of the opposite charges between them.
The possible ways by which these two metal spheres can be charged are by induction that is touching the metal or by rubbing them.
During induction, the same charges are transferred to each sphere. In this case, either both the spheres will be negatively charged or positively charged.
It is not possible that after the sphere touch each other they will cling together because the same charge repels each other and during touching, if one sphere is neutral, then the charged one will transfer the same charge. And as we know that same charge repel each other therefore they will repel each other.
Answer:
wrong question
Explanation:
unit of acceleration is written in m/s which is wrong
A. 20m/s because the unit for velocity is m/s
