Explanation:

In the case of a wave, the speed is the distance traveled by a given point on the wave (such as a crest) in a given interval of time. In equation form, If the crest of an ocean wave moves a distance of 20 meters in 10 seconds, then the speed of the ocean wave is 2.0 m/s.

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Amplitude and wavelength

Explanation:

- The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of the wave, measured with respect to the equilibrium position (so, for a water wave it is the maximum height of the wave relative to the equilibrium position)

- The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two consecutive crests (or throughs) of a wave. So, for a water wave, it is the distance between two consecutive waves

Therefore, in the example in the problem we have:

- 2 meters corresponds to the amplitude

- 35 meters corresponds to the wavelength

Two identical space probes are orbiting Jupiter. Scientists determine that one of the space probes has a larger gravitational fo
galina1969 [7]

If the probes are identical, then the one that feels a larger gravitational
force is orbiting closer to Jupiter than the other one is.

If they're not identical, then the one with greater mass will feel more
gravitational force than the one with less mass, even if they're both
the same distance from Jupiter.  (We know this from the experimental
observation that fatter people weigh more, even on Earth.)

If you are given force and time, you can determine power if you can know watts energy joules distance
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

distance

Explanation:

Distance is the missing quantity. It is needed to estimate the amount of work done by a force, and afterwards it is used to estimate the power, which is the work done over the time it took to complete it.

A 25-kg child sits at the top of a 4-meter slide. After sliding down, the child is traveling at 5 m/s. How much PE does he start
Semmy [17]

Daniddmelo says it right there, don't know why he got reported.

The potential energy (PE) is mass x height x gravity. So it would be 25 kg x 4  m x 9.8 = 980 joules. The child starts out with 980 joules of potential energy. The kinetic energy (KE) is (1/2) x mass x velocity squared. KE = (1/2) x 25 kg x 5 m/s2 = 312.5 joules. So he ends with 312.5 joules of kinetic energy. The Energy lost to friction =  PE - KE. 980- 312.5 = 667.5 joules of energy lost to friction.

Please don't just copy and paste, and thank you Dan cause you practically did it I just... elaborated more? I dunno.
