Yolanda is studying two waves. the first wave has an amplitude of 2 m, and the second has an amplitude of 3 m. which statement accurately describes something that yolanda can do as a part of her study? a. she can use destructive interference to generate a wave with an amplitude of 3.1 m. b. she can use constructive interference to generate a wave with an amplitude of 1.5 m. c. she can use destructive interference to generate a wave with an amplitude of 2.8 m. d. she can use constructive interference to generate a wave with an amplitude of 3.5 m.

a) Not Accurate

b) Not Accurate

c) Accurate

d) Accurate

Explanation:

Part a

Not Accurate, because destructive interference would lead to maximum possible magnitude of < 3 m

Part b

Not Accurate, because constructive interference would lead to minimum possible magnitude of > 2 m

Part c

Accurate, because destructive interference would lead to maximum possible magnitude of < 3 m by varying the phase difference between two waves she can achieve the desired results.

Part d  

Accurate, because constructive interference would lead to minimum possible magnitude of > 2 m by varying the phase difference between two waves she can achieve the desired results.

b would be the answer
