Which picture best demonstrates the phenomenon of diffraction?

Physics
1 answer:
timama [110]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The image to the left (with the disks on it)

Explanation:

Interference in any type of wave can be gotten in two forms, constructive interference, and destructive interference.

The constructive interference is between two waves with the same phase, that is, each crest and trough correspond with the crest and trough of the another getting as result a wave with twice the amplitude of the original one.

The destructive interference is between two waves out of phase, in which the crest of one cancels with the trough of another.

If light passes for a slit it will get a diffraction pattern in a screen, at which each bright pattern corresponds to a crest and a dark pattern to a trough, as a consequence of constructive interference and destructive interference in different points of its propagation to the screen.

The circular shape of the disks can be a representation of the wavefront and how the overlaps make constructive and destructive interference in order to get the diffraction pattern.

A 10- kilogram block is pushed across a horizontal surface with a horizontal force of 20 N against a friction force of 10 N. The
Temka [501]

Answer:

1m/s^2

Explanation:

Mass of block=10 kg

Applied horizontal force =F=20 N

Friction force=f=10 N

We have to find the acceleration of block.

Net force=Applied horizontal force-friction force

ma=F-f

Where F= Horizontal force

f=Friction force

m=Mass of object

a=Acceleration of object

10a=20-10=10

a=\frac{10}{10}=1 m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration of the block=1m/s^2

Momentum is a measure of the<br> of an object.<br> Which term accurately completes the sentence?
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Momentum is define as the product of the mass and velocity of a body. It is measured in Kgm/s.

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of an object. When an object or a body of mass 'm' is moving with velocity 'v', then its momentum can be determined as;

momentum (P) = mass × velocity

i.e            P = m × v

                  = mv

It is measured in Kgm/s.

The change in momentum of a body is referred to as its impulse (Ft).

ΔP = m(v - u) = Ft

Where: P is the momentum of the object, m is its mass, v is its final velocity, u is the initial velocity, F is the force and t is the time in which the force acts.

lara [203]

At the ground the ball will always have velocity along the direction of gravity. If upward motion is taken positive it will always have negative velocity at the ground because, if the ball was given an initial upward velocity then gravity will decelerate it and bring it down with a negative final velocity. If the ball is given an initial downward velocity then the ball will be further accelerated by gravity in the downward direction only, again maintaining negative direction. The magnitude however in both cases will be different. the final velocity at the ground will have higher magnitude in case of elevator moving downwards.
