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>

Answer:

15.3 s and 332 m

Explanation:

With the launch of projectiles expressions we can solve this problem, with the acceleration of the moon

    gm = 1/6 ge

    gm = 1/6  9.8 m/s² = 1.63 m/s²

We calculate the range

    R = Vo² sin 2θ  / g

    R = 25² sin (2 30) / 1.63

    R= 332 m

We will calculate the time of flight,

   Y = Voy t – ½ g t2  

   Voy = Vo sin θ

When the ball reaches the end point has the same initial  height Y=0

0 = Vo sin  t – ½  g t2

0 = 25 sin (30)  t – ½ 1.63 t2

0= 12.5 t –  0.815 t2

We solve the equation

0= t ( 12.5 -0.815 t)

 t=0 s

t= 15.3 s

The value of zero corresponds to the departure point and the flight time is 15.3 s

Let's calculate the reach on earth

R2 = 25² sin (2 30) / 9.8

R2 = 55.2 m

R/R2 = 332/55.2

R/R2 = 6

Therefore the ball travels a distance six times greater on the moon than on Earth

1)a persons ________ will change if they move from the earth to the moon
fgiga [73]

A person's weight will change if they move from the earth to the moon. This does not however, change the person's mass. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, and volume is how much space it takes up. On the moon, there is a lighter gravitational pull on said person, so they will not weigh as much if they stepped on a scale.
