What is occurring when two waves traveling along the same medium meet and cancel each other out?

Physics
1 answer:
liberstina [14]3 years ago
5 0

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"

A spring is used as part of a lift system and follows Hooke's law. If the spring is
salantis [7]

Answer:

1.05m or 105cm

Explanation:

Using the hooke's law equation as follows;

F = –k.x

Where;

F = force (N)

x = extension length (m)

k = constant of proportionality (N/m)

According to the information given in this question;

Displacement (x) = 85cm = 85/100 = 0.85m

Force = 12500N

Using F = kx, we find the proportionality constant

k = F/x

K = 12500/0.85

K = 14705.8N/m.

Also, since K = 14705.8N/m, the displacement (x), when the force increases to 15500N is;

F = kx

x = F/k

x = 15500/14705.8

x = 1.05m or 105cm

An object is projected horizontally at 18.4 m/s from the top of a 162.7 meter cliff.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

  106.03 meters  

Explanation:

The height is given by the formula for motion under the influence of gravity.

  h = -4.9t^2 +162.7

Height is 0 when ...

  0 = -4.9t^2 +162.7

  4.9t^2 = 162.7

  t^2 = 162.7/4.9

  t = √(162.7/4.9)

The horizontal distance traveled in that time is ...

  (18.4 m/s)√(162.7/4.9) s ≈ 106.03 m

The object will strike the ground about 106.03 meters from the base of the cliff.

A rock is dropped from a helght of 2.5 meters. What is its velocity when it reaches the ground?
Nataly_w [17]

u=0 m/s

h=2.5m

Using kinematic eq:

{v}^{2}  -  {u}^{2}  = 2gh \\  {v}^{2}  -  {0}^{2}  = 2gh \\ v =  \sqrt{2gh}  \\ v =  \sqrt{2 \times 10 \times 2.5}  \\ v =  \sqrt{50}  \\ v = 7.07m/s
