These two waves travel along the same string: y1 = (4.17 mm) sin(2.24?x - 300?t), y2 = (5.96 mm) sin(2.24?x - 300?t + 0.727?rad)

. What are (a) the amplitude and (b) the phase angle (relative to wave 1) of the resultant wave? (c) If a third wave of amplitude 5.20 mm is also to be sent along the string in the same direction as the first two waves, what should be its phase angle in order to maximize the amplitude of the new resultant wave?

Answer:

a) Amplitude is 9.49 mm

b) ∅ = 0.43056 rad = 24.7°

c) phase angle = 2.24x - 300t + 0.43056 rad

Explanation:

Given that;

A1 = y1 = (4.17 mm) sin(2.24x - 300t)

A2 = y2 = (5.96 mm) sin(2.24x - 300t + 0.727rad)

now phase difference between y1 and y2 is;

Δ∅ =  (2.24x - 300t + 0.727rad) - (2.24x - 300t) = 0.727 rad =  41.65°

a)  the amplitude

Amplitude A = √( A1² + A2² + 2A1A2cosΔ∅)

we substitute

A = √( (4.17)² + (5.96)² + (2 × 4.17 × 5.96 × cos(41.65) )

A = √( 17.3889 + 35.5216 + ( 49.7064 × 0.7472 )

A = √(52.9105 + 37.1406 )

A =  √90.0511

A = 9.49 mm

Therefore, Amplitude is 9.49 mm

b) the phase angle (relative to wave 1) of the resultant wave;

tan∅ = A2sinΔ∅ / ( A1 + A2cosΔ∅)

we substitute

tan∅ = 5.96sin41.65 / ( 4.17 +  5.96cos41.65)

tan∅ = 3.96088 / ( 4.17 + 4.4534)

tan∅ = 3.96088 / 8.6234

tan∅ = 0.4593

∅ = tan⁻¹ ( 0.4593 )

∅ = 0.43056 rad = 24.7°

c)

For the third wave, maximum amplitude. it should be in the direction of resultant of A1 and A2

so, phase angle in order to maximize the amplitude of the new resultant wave will be;

phase angle = 2.24x - 300t + 0.43056 rad

A 400.0-m-wide river flows from west to east at 30.0 m/min. Your boat moves at 100.0 m/min relative to the water no matter which
Ratling [72]

Answer:

a. boat would drift towards a NE direction

b. 104.4m/min * t

c. false

d. point downstream of c, -79.19 deg NE

e. 3.898mins

f. 389.8m

Explanation:

a. downstream is a location with respect to the direction of the flow of the river, in this case from west to east. the boat would drift towards the NE direction due to the direction of water current.

b. lets say it takes time t to travel across the river, the resultant speed of boat would be given as Rs= sqrt ( 100/min^2 + 30m/mins^2) = 104.4m/mins

distance traveled would be 104.4 *t

c. false, the direction of boat wouldnt remain perpendicular the entire crossing but would drift toward the NE bearing provided the driver doesnt change or steer the boat.

d. a. taking the definition of downstream in question (a), your boat would land at a point x downstream to c

   b. to land at c boat must be inclined at an angle of -79.19 deg NE, given by using the width of river and the distance of b to c.

                            cosФ= 75/ 400

                                  Ф= 79.19°NE to get to c you must position boat at an angle of -79.19 deg from your initial bearing.

e. speed = distance/ time, time = distance / speed.

aiming toward point c, speed of boat is the resultant speed of boat with respect to the speed of water, using Pythagoras also

speed=  \sqrt{ 100^{2} + 30^{2} } = 104m/mins

distance to move from point a to c is given also given by

distance = \sqrt{400^{2} + 75^{2} }= 406.97m

time = 406.97/ 104.4 = 3.89mins...

f. on the ground the observer see the boat speed as 100m/min.

distance traveled is given by speed * time= 100 * 3.89= 389m

g. speed of boat observed would be 100m/min

Describe how Bohr’s model used the work of Maxwell.
pochemuha

Answer:

 The bohr's model is the primitive model for the hydrogen atom, comparatively to the atom of valence shell. And it is derived from the hydrogen atom of the first approximation by using the quantum mechanics.

Basically, the model state that the electron revolved around in circular orbit in atom around the central nucleus. And it can be fixed in the circular orbit at the set of discrete distance at the nucleus.
