Answer:
Suppose that the wave equation is:
f(x) = A*cos(k*x)
The wave is in phase for two points x₁ and x₂ if:
f(x₁) = f(x₂)
And if these points are consecutive (for example, two consecutive peaks) then the wavelength of the wave is:
wavelength = x₂ - x₁
In this case, we know that the wave is in phase for two points that are 2 m apart.
Then we can use the points:
x₁ and x₂ such that:
x₂ = x₁ + 2m
We also know that these are the nearest points such that this happens, then we can assume that the points are consecutive.
Then the wavelength will be:
wavelength = x₂ - x₁ = (x₁ + 2m) - (x₁) = 2m
Then the wavelength is 2m.
The correct option is C.
The local newspaper has published the passage below. Last week, scientists released incredible images of aurora australis, known as the northern lights, as seen from the Hubble telescope. The Hubble telescope was placed in orbit in 1990 by the space shuttle and has since delivered the sharpest images we have of our planet, our galaxy, and the universe. The images delivered last week show the beautiful display of lights in the southern hemisphere. These lights are the result of the solar activity known as solar wind. Traces of solar wind reach well beyond Earth and have been detected as far as Saturn. Which statement in the news passage above is inaccurate
Answer:
The statement as aurora australis known as northern lights is incorrect. As the designation of aurora australis is for the southern lights i.e. which occur in the southern hemisphere.
Explanation:
Aurora or natural lights is a phenomenon that occurs at the poles of the Earth due to interaction between the Earth's magnetic field and cosmic rays. This interaction results in the beautiful display of colors on both poles. These are named, aurora borealis or aurora australis depending on their geographical location. If they occur on the northern pole they are termed as aurora borealis while those occurring on the southern pole are named aurora australis.
Answer:
C. The aurora australis is known as the northern lights.

Determine whether the interference is constructive or destructive at each location indicated.
A.constructive or destructive
B. constructive or destructive
C. constructive or destructive
D. constructive or destructive
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.
2. Why is alcohol thermometer not suitable to measure high temperature?
Answer:
Alcohol thermometers are used rather than mercury thermometers in very cold regions because alcohol has a lower freezing point than mercury. Pure ethanol freezes at -115 degrees C, while mercury freezes at -38 degrees C.
Explanation:
It is less durable because alcohol evaporates faster than mercury. It cannot measure high temperature because of a low boiling point. It wets the walls of the thermometer, which can adversely impact the accuracy of readings

The velocity of a car increases from +4.0 m/s to +16.0 m/s
in a time period of 4.0 s. What was the average
acceleration?
Answer:
Explanation:
Although we do have an equation for this in terms of one-dimensional motion, it's easy enough just to use the mathematical definition of acceleration:
[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}[/tex] which says, in words, the acceleration of an object is equal to the objects final velocity minus its initial velocity, divided by the change in time. Since everything is given in m and s, our answer will be in m/s/s:
[tex]a=\frac{16.0-4.0}{4.0}[/tex] and
[tex]a=\frac{12.0}{4.0}[/tex] so
a = 3.0 m/s/s

Answer:
The wavelength is 1.7cm
Explanation:
Given
See attachment for wave pattern
Required
What is the wavelength
To do this, we simply calculate the distance between successive waves (see attachment 2 for point A and B)
Using the ruler, points A and B are at:
[tex]A = 0.6cm[/tex]
[tex]B = 2.3cm[/tex]
So, the wavelength is:
[tex]\lambda = B - A[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = 2.3cm - 0.6cm[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = 1.7cm[/tex]
If approximated, the wavelength is:
[tex]\lambda \approx 2cm[/tex]
