The component of waves must have same frequency and phase.
when the component of waves vibrate at the same rate and attain maximum point at the same time, reinforcement of the waves amplitude occur to cause a constructive interference.However, when the two waves are out of phase where one is at minimum when the other is at maximum a destructive interference happens.
1) The mass of the continent is 
2) The kinetic energy of the continent is 274.8 J
3) The speed of the jogger must be 2.76 m/s
Explanation:
1)
The continent is a slab of side 5900 km (so the surface is 5900 x 5900, assuming it is a square) and depth 26 km, therefore its volume is:
The mass of the continent is given by
where:
is its density
is its volume
Substituting, we find the mass:
2)
To find the kinetic energy, we need to convert the speed of the continent into m/s first.
The speed is
v = 1.6 cm/year
And we have:
1.6 cm = 0.016 m
So, the speed is
Now we can find the kinetic energy of the continent, which is given by
where
is the mass
is the speed
Substituting,
3)
The jogger in this part has the same kinetic energy of the continent, so
K = 274.8 J
And its mass is
m = 72 kg
We can write his kinetic energy as
where
v is the speed of the man
And solving the equation for v, we find his speed:

While skydiving, its not just freely falling under Earth's gravity. Additional force called drag acts against the gravity which slows down the rate of fall. Drag is caused by the air molecules which pushes against the body as it falls through them. This is actually a significant amount of force which slows down the rate of fall of the body. Drag depends on the contact surface area and weight. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. No two persons have identical body shape and weight. Hence, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.
Answer:
E = 2,964 10⁻¹⁹ J
Explanation:
The energy of the photons is given by the Planck relation
E = h f
the speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency
c = λ f
we substitute
E = h c /λ
let's reduce the magnitude to the SI system
λ = 671 nm = 671 10⁻⁹ m
let's calculate
E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ /671 10⁻⁹
E = 2,964 10⁻¹⁹ J
