Final answer:

Triggers in physics and other fields involve an event that causes an action, which is true. Various examples from physics, like external force descripition, wave interactions, and phenomena such as interference, are instances of events and resultant actions or effects. The additional true/false statements clarify specific physics concepts related to forces, waves and vector analysis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that "Triggers have two parts: the event and the action" is indeed true. In physics, this concept is often related to cause and effect scenarios. To clarify through the provided physics examples:

  • Event T represents a specific outcome, which is a discrete event. The action might be any consequence that depends on the event T occurring.
  • The complement of A would consist of all outcomes that are not event A, hence in the context of numbers, not being an even number.
  • A GIVEN B is a conditional probability referring to the likelihood of event A occurring given that B has occurred.
  • Similarly, B GIVEN A is the probability of event B occurring given that event A has occurred.

For the additional physics statements:

  1. External force: True - It is a force that originates outside the system in question and affects an object within the system.
  2. A pebble causing a pulse wave: False - A pebble in water creates a circular wave, not a pulse wave.
  3. Wave amplitude interaction: False - Amplitude of waves can be affected by each other regardless of precise alignment, through interference phenomena.
  4. Types of interference: True - There are indeed two types of interference: constructive and destructive interference.
  5. Vector right angle triangle: True - A vector's x and y components can be represented as the legs of a right-angle triangle.
  6. Displacement comparison: False - Displacement is the same for both cases as it is independent of path.
