Answer:

1. The type of interference happening when intersecting light waves subtract from each other to create dark spots is known as destructive interference

Destructive interference happens when the positive displacement or crest of one wave is cancelled by the negative displacement, or through of another wave of the same frequency resulting in a wave with lower amplitude

The letter on the diagram that shows destructive interference is the letter "c"

2. When particles pass translate through a key hole, they do not interfere with each. Therefore, when light is considered as a stream of particles, when it passes through a keyhole, there will be no  interference, and the light will particles will not interact with other light particles such that the pattern formed on on a wall on the other where the particles impinge on will be the shape of the single slit or keyhole

3. Three behaviors of light that support the theory that light travels in waves includes;

a) Refraction

b) Interference

c) Diffraction

Refraction

Refraction describes the change in velocity of light when it travels from one medium to another of different density, in which the light changes its speed

Interference

Interference is the superposition of two or more waves with the addition of the wave displacements resulting in a wave of larger or lesser amplitude than each of the individual waves

Diffraction

Diffraction is defined as the tendency of light to bend or spread when it goes past an object placed in its path by passing around the objects edge

4. The properties of a blackbody radiator includes;

1) A blackbody radiator absorbs all electromagnetic radiation incident on it

2) A blackbody radiator is capable of emitting black-body radiation

3) The peak of the emitted radiation depends on the blackbody temperature

4) The length of the wavelength of the peak radiation is inversely proportional to the temperature of the blackbody

5) The blackbody has zero coefficient of reflection or transmission and therefore, it does not reflect incident heat or light which makes it black

An example of a blackbody radiator is a burglar alarm that flashes light when there is an incident but cannot be ordinarily seen because of its dark color which is meant to absorb all incoming light

Explanation:

Wave interference is the phenomenon which describes the effect of the coming together or superposition of two or more waves to result in a wave displacement at a given point that is either reinforced (larger), cancelled (lower) amplitudes or the waves may have their original amplitudes when there is no interference

The wave displacement for the waves coming from the same source are taken as vectors from which the combination is calculated by using vector addition.

A bowling ball traveling with constant speed hits the pins at the end of a bowling lane 16.5 m long. The bowler hears the sound
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

5.997m/s

Explanation:

We were told to calculate the speed of the ball,

Given speed of sound as 340 m

And we know that the sound of the ball hitting the pins is at 2.80 s after the ball is released from his hands.

Speed of ball = distance traveled/(time of hearing - time the sound travels).

Speed= S/t

Where S= distance traveled

t= time of hearing - time the sound travels

time=time for ball to roll+timefor sound to come back.

time of sound=16.5/340

=0.048529secs

solving for speedof ball

Then,Speed of ball = distance traveled/(time of hearing - time the sound travels).

=16.5/(2.80-0.048529) m/s = 5.997m/s

Therefore, the speed of the ball is

5.997m/s

A skier leaves the horizontal end of a ramp with a velocity of 25.0 m/s and lands 70.0 m from the base of the ramp. How high is
Valentin [98]

Answer:

<em>The end of the ramp is 38.416 m high</em>

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Motion </u>

When an object is thrown horizontally with an initial speed v and from a height h, it follows a curved path ruled by gravity.

The maximum horizontal distance traveled by the object can be calculated as follows:

\displaystyle d=v\cdot\sqrt{\frac  {2h}{g}}

If the maximum horizontal distance is known, we can solve the above equation for h:

\displaystyle h=\frac  {d^2g}{2v^2}

The skier initiates the horizontal motion at v=25 m/s and lands at a distance d=70 m from the base of the ramp. The height is now calculated:

\displaystyle h=\frac  {70^2\cdot 9.8}{2\cdot 25^2}

\displaystyle h=\frac  {4900\cdot 9.8}{2\cdot 625}

h= 38.416 m

The end of the ramp is 38.416 m high

Is language an innate or an acquired one
horsena [70]
It's acquired. Innate means you have it at birth, acquired means you picked it up. Obviously babies can't speak ;) so it's acquired.
