the weight of an object on a planet depends not only on its mass, but also on its distance from the planets center. This table l

(a) 0.96 m/s
The period of the wave corresponds to the time taken for one complete oscillation of the boat, from the highest point to the highest point again. Since the time between the highest point and the lowest point is 2.5 s, the period is twice this time:
The frequency of the waves is the reciprocal of the period:
The wavelength instead is just the distance between two consecutive crests, so
And the wave speed is given by:
(b) 0.265 m
The total distance between the highest point of the wave and its lowest point is
d = 0.53 m
The amplitude is just the maximum displacement of the wave from the equilibrium position, so it is equal to half of this distance. So, the amplitude is
(c) Amplitude: 0.15 m, wave speed: same as before
In this case, the amplitude of the wave would be lower. In fact,
d = 0.30 m
So the amplitude would be
Instead, the wave speed would not change, since neither the frequency nor the wavelength of the wave have changed.
Answer:
The amount of mass that needs to be converted to release that amount of energy is
Explanation:
From Albert Einstein's Energy equation, we can understand that mass can get converted to energy, using the formula
where = change in mass
c = speed of light =
Making m the subject of the formula, we can find the change in mass to be
There fore, the amount of mass that needs to be converted to release that amount of energy is 1.122 X 10 ^-7 kg
