When water waves meet, they can combine to form new waves. In constructive waves, a ________ amplitude wave is formed. In destru
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

In constructive waves, a <u><em>greater</em></u> amplitude wave is formed. In destructive waves, a wave with a <u><em>smaller</em></u> amplitude is formed. (option A)

Explanation:

Interference is called the superposition or sum of two or more waves. Depending mainly on the wavelengths, amplitudes and the relative distance between them, there are two types of interference: constructive or destructive.

Constructive interference occurs when there are two waves of identical or similar frequency (both have motions equal to an even number of similar wavelengths) and overlap the peak of one with the peak of the other. These effects add together and make a wave of greater amplitude. All of this is possible because the waves were in the same phase in the beginning (in the same position).

Destructive interference occurs in the opposite case to constructive. When the crest of one wave overlaps the valley of the other, they cancel out since they are in different phases when they overlap (they were in different positions). That is, as in the case of constructive waves they were added, in the case of destructive waves they cancel out (subtract).

So, <u><em>In constructive waves, a greater amplitude wave is formed. In destructive waves, a wave with a smaller amplitude is formed. </em></u>

Mary walked north from her home to Sheila's home, which is 4.0 kilometers away. Then she turned right and walked another 3.0 kil
bixtya [17]
The answer is speed: 4.7 km/h, velocity: 3.3 km/h.

Distances and time are given:
d1 =  4 km
d2 = 3 km
d3 = 5 km
t = 1.5 h

The speed can be expressed as a distance (d) divided by time (t). The average speed (s) is total distance travelled divided by time:
s = (d1 + d2)/t = (4+3)/1.5 = 7/1.5 = 4.7 km/h

The average velocity (v) is total displacement (d₁) from the starting point divided by time. Since Mary's starting point was home, and she walked to the supermarket, which is 5.0 kilometers from her own home, her displacement is 5 km:
v = d₁/t = 5/1.5 = 3.3 km/h

A battery has a potential resistance of 12 V and a current of 1280 mA. What is the resistance? PLS HELP ME ASAPPPPPPPPPP
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Resistance (R) = <u>9.375 ohm (Ω)</u>

Steps:

R =   \frac{V}{I}

=    \frac{12 \: volt}{1280 \:  milliampere}

=  \frac{12 \: volt}{1.28 \: ampare}

= 9.375 \: ohm (Ω)

According to Ohm's law what would happen if the current was increased and the resistance was held constant?
Whitepunk [10]
<span>Ohm's law deals with the relation between voltage and current in an ideal conductor. It states that: Potential difference across a conductor is proportional to the current that pass through it. It is expressed as V=IR. Therefore, the correct answer is option B, the voltage would increase as well.</span>
