Explanation :

The amplitude, wavelength and time period of three waves are given.

We know that energy of a wave is given by :

E=\dfrac{h\ c}{\lambda}

It is clear that energy of a wave is inversely proportional to the wavelength i.e E\propto \dfrac{1}{\lambda}

So, the wave having less wavelength will have the greatest energy.

Also, we know that energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of amplitude i.e. E\propto(Amplitude)^2

So, again the wave having maximum amplitude will have maximum energy.

Hence, the correct option is (C) i.e. "amplitude = 14 cm; wavelength = 7 cm; period = 12 seconds".

The equation for the energy of a wave is given by the equation of E = A^2 where E is the energy of the wave and A is the amplitude. The higher the amplitude, the greater the energy of the wave is and vice versa. An amplitude of 14cm has the greatest energy of the wave followed by 12cm and then 7cm.

A sample of gas at 301 Kelvin and 1.5 atmospheres has a density of 3.90 g/L. What is the molar mass of this gas? Show all of the
meriva
PV = nRTP is pressure, V is volume in L, n is number of moles, R is the gas constant,and T is temperature in K

(1.5 atm)(1 L) = (n)(.08206)(301K)

n = .06 moles in one liter

If there are 3.9 grams in .06 moles then

1/.06 x 3.9 = 64.2 grams per mol

two people start out 100 meters apart from each other and start moving towards each other at the same time. One person is moving
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

1.332 meters per second. // 2.664 meters per second.

Explanation:

the slower person moved 33.3 meters, and the faster person moved 66.6 meters.

the slower person is moving 33.3 meters in 25 seconds, while the other person is moving 66.6 meters in 25 seconds

slower person moved 33.3/25 = 1.332 meters per second.

faster person moved 66.6/25 = 2.664 meters per second.
