Why do you think fixed boundaries ""flip"" waves and loose boundaries do not?

Vinil7 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

When the obstacle is fixed, the law of action and reaction, makes the reflected wave is inverted.

When the obstacle is mobile, he mobile point, it moves in the direction of the wave, therefore there is no inversion of it.

Explanation:

Waves when they reach an obstacle behave like a shock, therefore if we use the conservation of momentum the wave must reverse its speed, this explains that the speed changes sign, the wave is reflected.

When the obstacle is fixed, the wave when it reaches the obstacle exerts a force on the point, by the law of action and reaction the point exerts on the wave a force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction, this reaction force which makes the reflected wave is inverted.

When the obstacle is mobile, this is without friction, when the wave arrives it exerts a force on the mobile point, it moves in the direction of the wave, reaching the maximum amplitude of the incident wave, when it is reflected the point begins to go down along with the wave, therefore there is no inversion of it.

During a free fall Swati was accelerating at -9.8m/s2. After 120 seconds how far did she travel? Use the formula =1/2 *
marta [7]
Distance fallen = 1/2 ( V initial + V final ) *t
We know
a = -9.8 m/s2
t=120s

To find distance fallen, we need to find V final
Use the equation
V final = V initial + a*t
Substitute known values
V final = 0 + (-9.8)(120)
V final = -1176 m/s

Then plug known values to distance fallen equation
Distance fallen = 1/2 ( 0 + 1176 )(120)
= 1/2(1776)(120)
=106,560 m

This way plugging into distance equation is actually the long way. A faster way is to plug the values into
Distance fallen = V initial * t + 1/2(a*t)
We won't need to find V final using another equation.

But anyways, good luck!
