Answer:

Explanation:

The amplitude of resultant wave as the result of  overlap of two waves depends upon the phase difference between the two.  If the waves meet crest to trough , the phase difference is 180 degree or they are in opposite phase . Hence they will destroy each other . The amplitude of resultant wave can be obtained by subtracting the amplitudes of two waves. They will interfere destructively.

Amplitude of resultant gives waves = 4.6 - 2 = 2.6 cm.

What the density of an object that has a volume of 20ml and mass of 3g.​
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The equation of D = m/V

Where D = density

m = mass

and V = volume

We are solving for V, so with the manipulation of variables we multiply V on both sides giving us  

V(D) = m  

now we divide D on both sides giving us

V = m/D  

We know our mass which is 600g and our density is 3.00 g/cm^3

so

V = 600g/3.00g/cm^3 = 200cm^3  or 200mL

a cubic centimeter (cm^3) is one of the units for volume. It's exactly like mL. 1 cm^3 = 1 mL

 

If you wish to change it to L, you'd have to convert

A mass m is tied to an ideal spring with force constant k and rests on a frictionless surface. The mass moves along the x axis.
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:x=\frac{x_m}{\sqrt{2}}

Explanation:

Given

initially mass is stretched to x_m

Let k be the spring Constant of spring

Therefore Total Mechanical Energy is \frac{kx_m^2}{2}

Position at which kinetic Energy is equal to Elastic Potential Energy

K=\frac{mv^2}{2}

U=\frac{kx^2}{2}

it is given

k=U

thus 2U=\frac{kx_m^2}{2}

2\times \frac{kx^2}{2}=\frac{kx_m^2}{2}

2x^2=x_m^2

x=\frac{x_m}{\sqrt{2}}

Why should a physical quantity be measured?​
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

It allows us to understand nature much more deeply than does qualitative description alone.

Explanation:

Without explaining the measurements, a quantity cannot always be measured.

The movement of water is like the flow of the electricity. Electricity must have a complete path for the flow. This movement is
Mama L [17]
The answer is current.

Current in the context of an electrical circuit is the flow of charge. Current is a quantity that is physical and can be measured. Current is defined as the rate of the flow charge past a certain point in a circuit. Current is expressed in Amperes which is equal to 1 coulomb/1second.
