What is happening when two waves with identical crests and troughs meet?

Physics

GenaCL600 [577]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

When two waves meet in such a way that their crests line up together, then it's called constructive interference. The resulting wave has a higher amplitude. In destructive interference, the crest of one wave meets the trough of another, and the result is a lower total amplitude.

You have two springs that are identical except that spring 1 is stiffer than spring 2, (k1 > k2). On which spring is more wor
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Two springs with spring constant k_1 and k_2

(a)If they are stretched using the same force

Force F=k_1x_1=k_2x_2

where x_1 and x_2 are the extension in the spring

so \frac{k_1}{k_2}=\frac{x_2}{x_1}

therefore x_2 > x_1

Work done is given by

W=F\cdot x

W_1=F\cdot x_1

W_2=F\cdot x_2

thus W_2 > W_1

(b)If they are stretched the same distance

\frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{k_1}{k_2}

Thus F_1 > F_2

For same extension, work done by Force 1 is more

W_1 > W_2

An ideal blackbody is an object that __________.a. absorbs most of the energy that strikes it. b. only absorbs energy at ultravi
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

c. absorbs all the energy that strikes it.

Explanation:

<em>An ideal black body is an object that absorbs every light energy (irrespective of the wavelength and direction) that strikes it without reflecting any in return. </em>

<em>Such objects or bodies usually appear perfectly black and will only emit radiation when heated to a very high temperature.</em>

A small circular loop of 5 mm radius is placed 1 m away from a 60-Hz power line. The voltage induced on this loop is measured at
marin [14]

Answer:

i = 101.4A

Explanation:

The steps to the solution can be found in the attachment below.

We have been given the frequency f = 60Hz. From this we can calculate the angular frequency of the power line.

It is assumed that sinwt = –1 in order to calculate the time varying current. Although the magnitude of the current is large, consideration should also be given to the distance between the coil and the power line. The induced emf is small considering the area of the coil which is 7.85×10-⁵m².

a block with a mass of 3 kg is swung on a cord in a horizontal circle with a radius of 2m. the speed of the block is 6m/s^. the
Ivenika [448]

Given Information:  

Mass = m = 3 kg

Speed = v = 6 m/s  

Radius = r = 2 m

Required Information:  

Magnitude of the acceleration = a = ?  

Answer:

Magnitude of the acceleration = 18 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of the block traveling along a circular path with some velocity is given by

a = v²/r

a = 6²/2

a = 36/2

a = 18 m/s²

Therefore, the magnitude of the acceleration of the block is most nearly equal to 18 m/s².

Bonus:

The corresponding force acting on the block can be found using

F = ma (a = v²/r)

F = mv²/r
