When one wave crest overlaps the crest of another and they add together what happens to the amplitude?
A: stays the same
B: decreases
C: increases

Answers

Answer 1
I’d say the answer is “B”
Answer 2

When one wave crest overlaps with  the crest of another and they add together and their amplitude increases. Hence, C is correct.

What is amplitude ?

Amplitude of a wave is the distance from the midpoint of a crest to its top or the distance from the midpoint of a trough to its bottom. For a wave the peak to the top is called crest and peak to the bottom or decline is called troughs.

When two waves overlap by crest of one wave and trough of another wave, then their amplitude will decrease and it is called destructive interference.

Amplitude of a wave is directly related to its intensity. High amplitude waves are intense. When two waves overlaps by their crests and add up together their amplitude will be the sum of amplitudes of both waves. This is called constructive interference. Hence, option C is correct.

A. an active volcano starting to erupt B. a rock turning a red color from oxygen C. a waterfall breaking the rocks below it D. the wind picking up dust and carrying it

Answers

Answer:

D. the wind picking up dust and carrying it

Explanation:

Erosion is a process in which an agent transfer the top soil to another region, thereby exposing the lower soil. These agents have the ability to move the top layer of soil and deposit it at another place. The major agents in this case are; a running or flowing body of water and wind.

Therefore, the change to the Earth's surface that is an example of erosion is the wind picking up dust and carrying it. Thereby exposing the lower layers.

a
Use a meterstick and stopwatch to measure the distance the car travels for the 5s.
b
Use a balance to determine the mass of the car. Use a motion sensor to measure the speed of the car at a time of 0s and at time of 5s .
c

d
Use a motion sensor to measure the speed of the car at a time of 0s and a time of 5s . Use a meterstick to determine the distance the car travels for 5s .

Answers

Answer:

b  Use a balance to determine the mass of the car. Use a motion sensor to measure the speed of the car at a time of 0s and at time of 5s .

Explanation:

The right way to measure the net force on the car is take the measurement of its mass then find the speed of the car within the time 0s to 5s.

This is because the net force acting on car is given as;

   Force  = mass x acceleration

By using the balance, the mass is determine

 Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

     Acceleration  = [tex]\frac{v - u}{t}[/tex]  

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

  Now,

         Force  = mass x  [tex]\frac{v - u}{t}[/tex]

What are mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves?

       Usually, waves transfer energy from one place to another. Mechanical waves transfers via matter where as electromagnetic waves transfers via light. Both mechanical waves and electromagnet (light) waves measured through amplitude, wavelength, frequency and both will get transmitted, refracted, reflected, absorbed, diffracted when they react with matter. Both the electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves are transverse in nature but the mechanical waves can also be in longitudinal.

So, many characteristics were similar for mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves.

Hence, Option A, B, C are the three characteristics.

A pulse with a height of 20 cm and a length of 30 cm travels with a speed of 400 cm/s through a spring that has been stretched so it is 800 cm long. If we want to send another pulse through the spring that will have a different speed, which of the bolded words should we change? List all that will change the speed of the wave.

Answers

Answer:

To send a pulse of different speed, change the tension or stretch on the spring

Explanation:

A pulse is a single disturbance of a particle is a medium. The pulse has an amplitude or and a pulse length in the medium. The speed of the pulse is dependent on the amount of strain or tension ( stretch) applied to the medium. The speed also determines the length of the pulse but is unaffected by the or amplitude of the pulse.

A gun fires a bullet horizontally with a velocity of 90 m/s from a tower. Neglecting air resistance, how far will the bullet travel horizontally in 4 seconds?​

Answers

Answer:

The distance covered along the horizontal axis is [tex]s = 360 \ m[/tex]

The distance covered along the vertical  axis is  [tex]h = 78.4 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The horizontal velocity is  [tex]u_x = 90 \ m/s[/tex]

     The time considered is  [tex]t = 4 \ s[/tex]

Generally the distance which the bullet will cover in the horizontal direction for the given time is  mathematically represented as

    [tex]s = u_xt + \frac{1}{2}* at^2[/tex]

Here a is the acceleration along the horizontal direction and the value is  [tex]a = 0 \ m/s^2[/tex]

So

     [tex]s = 90 * 4 + \frac{1}{2}* * 0 * 4^2[/tex]

=>  [tex]s = 360 \ m[/tex]

Generally the distance which the bullet will cover in the vertical  direction for the given time is  mathematically represented as

            [tex]h= u_y t + \frac{1}{2}* gt^2[/tex]

Here  [tex]u_y[/tex] is the initial  velocity of the bullet along the vertical axis and the value is  [tex]u_y = 0 \ m/s[/tex]

             [tex]h = 0 * 4 + \frac{1}{2}* 9.8 *4^2[/tex]

=>          [tex]h = 78.4 \ m[/tex]
