Answer:

Destructive interference

Explanation:

Destructive interference occurs when two waves traveling along the same medium meet and cancel each other out. The resultant wave has a smaller amplitude than the individual waves. In this case, the maxima of two waves are 180 degrees out of phase.

Hence, the correct option is (A) "destructive interference"

Define: New Moon, Full Moon, Waxing phases and Waning phases.
Nutka1998 [239]
Full moon: All of the moon or sun appears covers by the shadow.
When the moon is waxing, it means that the lit part is getting larger (going towards a full moon)
When the moon is waning , it means that the lit part is getting smaller (going towards a new moon)
The new moon represents the start of a new lunar cycle and occurs approximately every 29 days.

Hope that help:)

The presence of which element would indicate that a star is going through a high-mass star life cycle as opposed to a low-mass s
Delicious77 [7]
Celestial bodies in the universe like the stars, gain their energy by nuclear fusion. This is a nuclear reaction that emits radiation by joining subatomic particles together to yield another new element. This cause by instability of certain elements due to their high neutron-to-proton ratio. The most stable element there is, is Fe-26. Elements lighter than Fe-26 are most likely to undergo nuclear fusion (combining), while elements heavier than Fe-26 are most likely to undergo nuclear fission (breaking). 

So that is how the Sun gains its energy. It is very abundant in hydrogen, such that hydrogen undergoes nuclear fusion. Two protons from two hydrogen atoms combine at very very high temperatures to form a Helium atom. Therefore, a high-mass star life is very abundant in Hydrogen, while a low-mass star life is very abundant in Helium.

Is kinetic energy scalar quantity
VashaNatasha [74]

Yes, Kinetic Energy is a scalar quantity because the direction is not needed.  A scalar quantity is one dimensional measurement.

Explanation:

  • Kinetic Energy is a scalar quantity that means it has only a magnitude and no direction.
  • Energy has a size but no direction; two objects can have the same kinetic energy but they travel in opposite directions.
  • The formula of Kinetic Energy is
  1. K.E = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}
  • Mass is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.
  • squaring velocity will make vector to scalar quantity.
