Mechanical
waves are oscillation of matter, they are important because they all
transfer energy from one place to another. There are 2 types of
mechanical waves. A transverse wave where the particles vibrate
perpendicular to the direction of energy travel and a longitudinal
wave where particle vibrations are parallel to the direction of the
energy transfer.

Answer:
c = 5 m
Explanation:
this exercise you want to divide the rectangular room into two triangular rooms
the area of triangles is
A = ½ base height
A = ½ 4 3
A = 6 m²
the length of the curtain can be found using the Pythagorean theorem
c² = b² + a²
c = √ (4² + 3²)
c = 5 m
this is the length of the curtain
Let the distance between the towns be d and the speed of the air be s.
distance = speed * time
convert the minutes time into hours.
When flying into the wind, ground speed will be air speed MINUS wind speed, hence the against the wind trip is described by:
d
s−15
=
7
3
return trip is then :
d
s+15
=
7
5
Cross-multiplying both we get the two-variable system:
3d=7∗(s−15)5d=7∗(s+15)
3d=7s−1055d=7s+105
subtract first equation from second equation we get
2d=210d=105km
Substitute the value of d in the above equations for s.
5∗105=7s+1057s=420s=60km/hr
Amplitude is a measurement of the magnitude of displacement (or maximum disturbance) of a medium from its resting state, as diagramed in the peak deviation example below (it can also be a measurement of an electrical signal's increased or decreased strength above or below a nominal state).
