They calculated the mean value
AlexFokin [52]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

average speed

Explanation:

Data collected for speed = 3 times

Say the three speeds are v1, v2 and v3

Now (v1 + v2 + v3) / 3

It gives the average speed.

How is amplitude changed in an instrument or tuning fork
azamat

Amplitude is affected by the energy wave in the instrument. High energy wave means high amplitude and low energy wave means low amplitude.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The amplitude of a periodic variable is a measure of its change over a single period. There are various definitions of amplitude, which are all functions of the magnitude of the differences between the variable's extreme values.

The amount of energy carried by a wave is related to the amplitude of the wave. Amplitude of an instrument is directly affected by the wave of the energy in the instruments. High energy wave means high amplitude and low energy wave means low amplitude in the instrument.

Lerok [7]

Answer:

Part a)

distance = 112 miles

Part b)

current position = 112 miles from the position of town

Explanation:

Part a)

Since the distance marker is showing the distance between the town and the position of john at all time

so here we have

d = 112 miles

Part b)

Current position of John is given as

r = 112 miles

from the position of the town

The diagram shows two charged objects, X and Y.
masya89 [10]

The missing diagram is in the attachments.

Answer: X: positive Y: positive

Explanation: Electric field is a vector quantity, which means it can be represented by a vector arrow: the arrow points in the direction of electric field and its length represents the magnitude at a given location. There are another representation of the electric field called electric field lines, <u>in which the line points away from a positively charged source and towards a negatively charged source</u>. This occurs because it follows a pattern, where the lines points in the direction that a positive test charge would have if it is accelerating on the line.

Analyzing the diagram, it can be observed that the lines are pointing away from both of the charged objects. Therefore, both X and Y are <u>positively charged</u>.
