I believe the answer is C. People use light years to figure out how far a planet is from either us, the sun, or other planets.

How are wave properties and energy related?<br> give me examples
klasskru [66]

Answer:

They don’t ‘represent’ anything, they are properties of the wave.

Depending on the type of wave, we experience them as various phenomena. For example, with a sound wave we experience frequency (or wavelength, which is just another way to describe the same property) as the pitch of the sound. We experience amplitude as the loudness of the sound, although due to the characteristics of the ear, frequency also effects perceived loudness.

If the wave is a light wave, we experience the frequency (wavelength) as the colour of the light, and the amplitude as the brightness of the light.

For many waves, we don’t perceive them at all (e.g. radio waves).

For ocean waves, frequency is the time for each peak or trough to reach us, and amplitude is how tall the wave is.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Explanation:

For each object, the initial potential energy is converted to rotational energy and translational energy:

PE = RE + KE

mgh = ½ Iω² + ½ mv²

For the marble (a solid sphere), I = ⅖ mr².

For the basketball (a hollow sphere), I = ⅔ mr².

For the manhole cover (a solid cylinder), I = ½ mr².

For the wedding ring (a hollow cylinder), I = mr².

If we say k is the coefficient in each case:

mgh = ½ (kmr²) ω² + ½ mv²

For rolling without slipping, ωr = v:

mgh = ½ kmv² + ½ mv²

gh = ½ kv² + ½ v²

2gh = (k + 1) v²

v² = 2gh / (k + 1)

The smaller the value of k, the higher the velocity.  Therefore:

marble > manhole cover > basketball > wedding ring

Papessa [141]

Answer:

A) 1000 kg

Explanation:

vf = vi + at

0 = 20 + (a)(10)

a = -2.0 m/s^2

F = ma

2000 = (m)(2)

m = 1000 kg
