Two light waves of equal wavelength, lambda, are emitted in phase from separate sources and propagate to a common point P. Light

wave 1 must travel a longer distance (d1) than light wave 2 (d2) to reach point P, where d1 – d2 is equal to the path difference between the two light waves. If the two waves interfere constructively at point P, what must be true about the path difference between the two light waves?

Answer:

The path difference must be equal to an integral (1 * lambda, 2 * lambda, -------n * lambda) number of wavelengths for constructive interference to occur.

A 55 kg track and field athlete has an average power output of 5.4 kW during the 200 meter dash. How quickly did she finish the
olga_2 [115]

The time taken for the athlete to finish the race is 20 s (Option A)

<h3>What is power? </h3>

Power is simply defined as the rate at which work is done. It can be expressed mathematically as

Power (P) = work (W) / time (t)

But

Work = weight × distance

Therefore,

Power = (weight × distance ) / time

<h3>How to determine the time </h3>
  • Mass (m) = 55 Kg
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Weight = mg = 55 × 9.8 = 539 N
  • Power (P) = 5.4 KW = 5.4 × 1000 = 5400 W
  • Distance (d) = 200 m
  • Time (t) =?

Power = (weight × distance ) / time

5400 = (539 × 200) / t

5400 = 107800 / t

Cross multiply

5400 × t = 107800

Divide both side by 5400

t = 107800 / 5400

t = 20 s

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.37 L at 2.80×102 K and 1.15 atm. Calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.68 L and
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

p_2 = 1.76 atm

Explanation:

given data:

v_1 = 2.37 L

v_2 = 1.68 L

p_1 =1.15 atm

p_2 = ?

t_1 = 280 K

t_2 = 304 K

from Gas Law Equation

, WE HAVE

\frac{p_1 v_1}{t_1} =\frac{p_2 v_2}{t_2}

Putting the values

\frac{1.15*2.37}{280}  =\frac{p_2 *1.68}{304}

9.733*10^{-3} = \frac{p_2 *1.68}{304}

9.733*10^{-3}*304 = p_2*1.68

\frac{9.733*10^{-3}*304}{1.68} =p_2

p_2= 1.76 atm

Max and Jimmy want to jump on a trampoline. Max begins jumping in a steady pattern, making small waves in the trampoline. Jimmy
mylen [45]

Answer:

x_total = (A + B) cos (wt + Ф)

we have the sum of the two waves in a phase movement

Explanation:

In this case we can see that the first boy Max when he enters the trampoline and jumps creates a harmonic movement, with a given frequency. When the second boy Jimmy enters the trampoline and begins to jump he also creates a harmonic movement. If the frequency of the two movements is the same and they are in phase we have a resonant process, where the amplitude of the movement increases significantly.

         Max

               x₁ = A cos (wt + Ф)

         Jimmy

              x₂ = B cos (wt + Ф)

         

total movement

             x_total = (A + B) cos (wt + Ф)

 Therefore we have the sum of the two waves in a phase movement
