Two students walk in the same direction along a straight path, at a constant speedâone at 0.90 m/s and the other at 1.90 m/s.
mixer [17]

Answer:

456.143684211 seconds

564.3 m

Explanation:

s = Distance

v = Velocity

Time is given by

t=\dfrac{s}{v}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{780}{0.9}\\\Rightarrow t=866.67\ s

t=\dfrac{s}{v}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{780}{1.9}\\\Rightarrow t=410.526315789\ s

Difference in time = 866.67-410.526315789 = 456.143684211 seconds

According to the question

\dfrac{x}{0.9}-\dfrac{x}{1.9}=5.5\times 60\\\Rightarrow x(\dfrac{1}{0.9}-\dfrac{1}{1.9})=330\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{330}{\dfrac{1}{0.9}-\dfrac{1}{1.9}}\\\Rightarrow x=564.3\ m

The students would have to walk 564.3 m

Determine whether the interference is constructive or destructive at each location indicated.
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

A. Constructive

B. Destructive

C. Destructive

D. Constructive

Explanation:

Constructive interference takes place at locations along the path of two superposed waves where the waves are in phase such that a high or low point of one of the waves corresponds with a high or low point of the other wave which gives a resulting wave amplitude which is the sum of the amplitudes of the individual waves

Destructive interference takes place at locations along the path of two superposed waves where one wave is out of phase with the other wave such that a high or low point of one of the waves coincides with a low or high point of the other wave respectively thereby cancelling the effect of the other wave and giving a resulting wave that has an amplitude which is the difference in the amplitudes of the individual waves

Therefore;

At point A, the peak of each wave partially coincides resulting in constructive interference

At point B, the peak of the blue wave and the trough of the red wave partially coincides resulting in destructive interference

At point C, the through of the blue wave and the peak of the back wave partially coincides resulting in destructive interference

At point D, the trough of each wave partially coincides resulting in constructive interference.

When measuring the diameter of a cylinder the following measurements are obtained.
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

a. 1.80 %

b. 0.60 %

c. 1.20 %

d. 0.60 %

e. 0.60 %

Explanation:

In order to calculate percent uncertainties in each case, we forst need to calculate the average value:

Average Diameter = (16.4 mm + 16.8 mm + 16.9 mm + 16.6 mm +16.8 mm)/5

Average Diameter = 16.7 mm

Now, the formula for percent uncertainty is:

% Uncertainty = (Uncertainty/Average) * 100 %

where,

Uncertainty = |Value - Average|

For Each Case:

<u>a. 16.4 mm</u>:

Uncertainty = |16.4 mm - 16.7 mm| = 0.3 mm

Therefore,

% Uncertainty = (0.3 mm/16.7 mm) * 100%

<u>% Uncertainty = 1.80 %</u>

<u></u>

<u>b. 16.8 mm</u>:

Uncertainty = |16.8 mm - 16.7 mm| = 0.1 mm

Therefore,

% Uncertainty = (0.1 mm/16.7 mm) * 100%

<u>% Uncertainty = 0.60 %</u>

<u></u>

<u>c. 16.4 mm</u>:

Uncertainty = |16.9 mm - 16.7 mm| = 0.2 mm

Therefore,

% Uncertainty = (0.2 mm/16.7 mm) * 100%

<u>% Uncertainty = 1.20 %</u>

<u></u>

<u>d. 16.6 mm</u>:

Uncertainty = |16.6 mm - 16.7 mm| = 0.1 mm

Therefore,

% Uncertainty = (0.1 mm/16.7 mm) * 100%

<u>% Uncertainty = 0.60 %</u>

<u></u>

<u>e. 16.8 mm</u>:

Uncertainty = |16.8 mm - 16.7 mm| = 0.3 mm

Therefore,

% Uncertainty = (0.1 mm/16.7 mm) * 100%

<u>% Uncertainty = 0.60 %</u>
