Answer:

No, the resulting wave in the diagram does not demonstrate destructive interference. The resulting wave in the diagram shows a bigger wave than Wave 1 or Wave 2. If it demonstrated destructive interference, it would be a smaller wave or a horizontal line. With destructive interference, waves break down to form a smaller wave, or cancel each other out, resulting in no wave formation.

Answer: The amplitude is 0. (assuming that the amplitude ot both initial waves is the same)

Explanation:

When two monochromatic light waves of the same wavelength and same amplitude undergo destructive interference, means that the peak of one of the waves coincides with the trough of the other, so the waves "cancel" each other in that point in space.

Then if two light waves undergo destructive interference, the amplitude of the resultant wave in that particular point is 0.

A bullet of mass 120g is fired horizontally into a fixed wooden block with a speed of 20m\s. The bullet is brought to rest in a
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

1) F = 24 N

2) Distance = 1 m

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass; m = 120 g = 0.12 kg

Initial velocity; u = 20 m/s

Final velocity; v = 0 m/s since it came to rest.

Time; t = 0.1 s

We can calculate acceleration from Newton's first equation of motion;

a = (v - u)/t

a = (0 - 20)/0.1

a = -200 m/s²

1) magnitude of the resistance will be;

F = ma

F = 0.12 × (-200)

F = -24 N

Since, we are dealing with the magnitude, we will take the absolute value. Thus, F = 24 N

2) To find the distance moved by the bullet, we know that;

Distance = Average speed × time

Thus;

Distance = ((v + u)/2) × t

Distance = ((0 + 20)/2) × 0.1

Distance = 1 m

polet [3.4K]
Here is the answer to the given question above. If Angela has been feeling fatigued and a test is used to check the basal metabolic rate and revealed that she has a low metabolic rate, therefore, the possible diagnosis for Angela would be HYPOTHYROIDISM. <span>The BMR test works by precisely measuring the amount of oxygen that you consume when your body is basal, or completely at rest. Hope this answers your question.</span>

What’s the difference between the offspring of an asexual organism and a sexual organism
laiz [17]
The offspring of an asexual organism (since asexual reproduction only requires one parent) will be completely identical to the parent, like bacteria or fungi. The offspring of a sexual organism (since sexual reproduction requires two organisms) will be a combination of both parents, like animals or (some) flowers.
