Waves are observed passing under a dock. Wave crests are 8.0 meters apart. The time for a complete wave to pass by is 4.0 second

s. The markings on the post submerged in water indicate that the water level fluctuates from a trough at 6.0 meters to a crest at 9.0 meters. What is the amplitude of the wave?

The amplitude of a wave can be obtained by measuring the distance from the resting position of the wave to its crest. The resting position is half of the distance from the crest to the trough. Given that the distance between the crest and the trough is 3 meters, the amplitude should be half of that, which is 1.5 meters.

While playing a video game on your laptop, the laptop gets very hot. Which Thermodynamics Law does this exemplify?
Ksivusya [100]

Answer

The dedicated graphics card is used when performing hardware-intensive tasks so as to ensure efficiency and balanced performance. However, it uses more power and thus produces more heat. When the cooling system is not sufficient or the room is not well ventilated, your PC begins to overheat while playing games.     Explanation: How does the second law of thermodynamics relate to the direction of heat flow? Heat of itself never flows from a cold object to a hot object. ... The second law expresses the maximum efficiency of a heat engine in terms of hot and cold temperatures. one of these answers i am not sure

What is power, and what is its relationship to voltage and amperage?
kvasek [131]
The relationship between amperage, voltage, and power is that power equals the amperage quantity times the amount of voltage.

Power: is the amount of energy transferred or converted per unit time.

Rzqust [24]
<span>A tri-fold brochure has two parallel folds, splitting the brochure into three sections. Even when printed on low-weight paper, tri-folds can stand up easily, which makes them a great choice for displaying at conventions. You can fold both folds inwards so that the left and right sections of the brochure sit on top of one another, or you can have one fold inwards and the other outwards, to create an accordion effect, which looks very attractive.</span>

An automobile engineer found that the impact of a truck colliding at 14 km/h with a concrete pillar caused the bumper to indent
BlackZzzverrR [31]
Hello
Here we must use the equation of motion 
v^2 = u^2 + 2as; where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is the acceleratoin and is the distance travelled.
We select this one because the time of collision is unknown to us.
We know the truck stopped so its final velocity is 0; thus v = 0.
Converting the initial velocity to SI units, we get 3.89 m/s.
The distance traveled, s, is 0.062 meters.
Inserting all of these values into the equation,
0 = (3.89)^2 + 2(a)(0.062)
and solving for a, we get a to be
-122.0 ms^(-2)
The negative sign indicates the acceleration is in the opposite direction to the initial motion, which means the truck decelerated. This is consistent with the given condition.
