    Can Two Speakers Produce Destructive Interference with Longitudinal Waves?

    destructive interference between two waves occurs at m+(1/2) where m=0,1,2,3,... so, m=0 would be incorrect.

    How Much Should a Golfer Increase the Putt Speed to Overcome Grass Resistance?

    Well, if the golfer has already covered 0.67fraction of the distance to the whole, that equates to 2/3 of the total distance. if he has already covered 2/3's of the distance, that means that 1/3 is left to go. and since he was able to go 2/3 of the distance with his inital speed, how...

    well here, since you got the problem right already i'll try to explain it better for you, so you understand it and will be able to get it easily the next time you encounter a question like it. It says that each dot is 0.5s apart(2 frames/second) so if you see that the distance between the...

    Calculating Velocity in a Sticky Situation

    this is just a simple motion diagram, so hence you don't need any values to figure it out. it is totally conceptual. just look at the distance between the dots after the sticky part and you know the time in between those dots. hope this helps.

    Is This a Conservation of Momentum Problem?

    this question seems as if it is a conservation of momentum problem. therefore, initial momentum (before collison) must be equal to the final momentum (after collison) so just equate the two and you should get the correct answer. hope this helps.
