When two sound waves destructively interfere what does it sound like?

Destructive interference cancels out the sound - so all you hear is silence.


Examples of the application of interfrence of sound waves?

Since the two waves 180 degrees out of phase cancel each other you can use interference for noise dampening. Pick up the sound and generate a signal that cancels it.


What is the mechanical advantage of a jack that is able to lift a 5000N car with 400N of effort?

12.5. MA=Output Force/Input Force, so MA=5000N/400N=12.5 Note that there isn't a unit because N/N cancels out.


Is there a force that cancels out gravity?

The fact that we stand on the surface of the Earth - rather than falling right through to the center of the Earth - indicates that there is. The two forces - the Earth's surface pushing us upward, and Earth's gravity pulling us downward - cancel in this case. In the above, the forces cancel out -- we are pulled down, but the floor pushes up at the same force (different direction. But is there a force that cancels out gravity? The best I can think of is an Earth above and an Earth below, so that the two opposite directed forces cancel out. Although in orbiting, the centrifugal force cancels (equal and opposite) of gravity.


How does upthrust depend on accleration due to gravity?

it depends on acceleration due to gravity as f=mg, when acceleration due to gravity increases the force acting also increases.when force acting increases it cancels the upward thrust(buoyant force)so the body sinks in the liquid.

What are some advantages of noise cancelling headsets over noise isolating earbuds?

Noise cancelling headphones uses a microphone near to the ear to generate and anti noise which is then mixed with the main sound. This anti noise cancels out the noise by using the phenomenon of destructive interference. Therefore, the final sound from a noise cancelling headphone is crisper in comparison to its counterpart the noise isolating earbuds which try to block the noises by using some sort of cushions.

What does the twisting of the wire do in twisted-pair cable?

It provides some "shielding" to minimize coupling between signals in a cable, reducing crosstalk and other forms of interference. It is cheaper than the complete shielding provided by coaxial cable, when coaxial cable would be overkill for the problem.


Why do you put milk on bee stings?

You put milk on a bee sting because a bee sting is full of acid and by putting an alkali solution on the sting it neutralises the sting (balances it out) so the sting doesnt hurt.


Why pH changes when acids and based are mixed?

because the base cancels the acid out and the acid cancels the base out to make a more neutral solution


What do you call a reaction when it cancels out?

Phase cancelation
