Answer :

Frequency - The number of cycles of wave per second

Wavelength - The distance between adjacent crests or troughs

Amplitude - The height of wave from its equilibrium position

Explanation :

Frequency - The number of cycles of wave per second

Formula of frequency

$f=\dfrac{1}{T}$

Wavelength - The distance between adjacent crests or troughs

Formula of wavelength

$f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}$

Amplitude - The height of wave from its equilibrium position

Wavelength goes with- the distance between
amplitude- the height
frequency- the number of cycles. I just answered this on plato and got it right.

Answer:

work = 1728

Power = 134

Explaination:

by using the formula,

Work(W)= Force(F)×Distance(D)

Several springs are connected as illustrated below in (a). Knowing the individual springs stiffness k1 = 20 N/m, k2 = 30 N/m, k3

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring stiffness is

$k_{1}=20\ N/m$

$k_{2}=30\ N/m$

$k_{3}=15\ N/m$

$k_{4}=20\ N/m$

$k_{5}=35\ N/m$

According to figure,

$k_{2}$ and $k_{3}$ is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent

Using formula for series

$\dfrac{1}{k}=\dfrac{1}{k_{2}}+\dfrac{1}{k_{3}}$

$k=\dfrac{k_{2}k_{3}}{k_{2}+k_{3}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k=\dfrac{30\times15}{30+15}$

$k=10\ N/m$

k and $k_{4}$ is in parallel

We need to calculate the k'

Using formula for parallel

$k'=k+k_{4}$

Put the value into the formula

$k'=10+20$

$k'=30\ N/m$

$k_{1}$ ,k' and $k_{5}$ is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent stiffness of the spring

Using formula for series

$k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{k_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{k'}+\dfrac{1}{k_{5}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{1}{30}+\dfrac{1}{35}$

$k_{eq}=8.93\ N/m$

Hence, The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

Find the GCF 12, 18, and 84

ahrayia [7]

To find the answer, plot down the factors for every number.

12: 1, 2 ,3 ,4, 6, 12

18: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

84: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12

If you noticed, the number that was common to the 3 numbers, were 1, 2, 3, and 6
And 6 is the bigger number
So 6 is your GCF

Which of the following is NOT an argument for showing that the Earth must be round: a. during an eclipse of the Moon, the shadow

Hitman42 [59]

Answer: The correct option is option E (the Sun is seen blocking different constellations in the course of a year.

Explanation:

The earth, which is one of the planets of the solar system that supports life, is shperical in shape. The spherical ( round) shape of the earth is marked by the intervening highlands and oceans on its surface.

Evidence to show that the earth is shperical are:

--> The Lunar eclipse: During an eclipse of the Moon, the shadow of the Earth is always seen to be round.

--> Ships Visibility: When ships travel a large distance away, we see their hulls disappear first and their masts disappear last.

-->Altitude of Polaris (North Star): The height of the North Star changes as we travel to different latitudes. That is ,increases as you move toward the North pole, or decreases as you move toward the equator.

--> Aerial photographs: Photographs of the Earth from space always show a round body.

The statement that doesn't prove that the earth is spherical in shape is (the Sun is seen blocking different constellations in the course of a year). The sun is seen in front of stars blocking different constellation in a year because the earth orbits round the sun in a year and not that it is shperical in shape.
