Answer:

a) Frequency remains constant

b) Wavelength remains constant

c) speed of the wave remains constant

d) Intensity decreases

e)  amplitude of its electric field decreases

Explanation:

a)  Frequency can be defined as the number of crests that pass a fixed point in the medium in unit time. It is the source of the wave that will determine the frequency. If the small source is changed to a bigger and faster one then the frequency will change. In our case, there is no change of source of wave, so the frequency remains constant.

b) The speed of of the wave is directly proportional to the wavelength. If we double the speed, the wavelength also doubles. Since the speed has not been doubled in our case, the wavelength will remain constant.

c) As indicated in b) since the wavelength is proportional to speed and it has not changed in our case, then the speed remains constant.

d) The intensity of a wave decreases as it moves further away from the source.

e) The intensity is related to the amplitude. Since the intensity decreases, the amplitude also decreases.

you purchase 723 shares of Nike at $47.75 per share and one year later you are ready to sell your 723 shares for the current mar
Anettt [7]
The answer to this question is "you gained profit". The amount of money you gain from selling the stocks now is higher compared to the amount you spent a year ago. The amount you gain from the shares is ($62.25) x 723 = $45006.75. The amount you spent last year is ($47.75) x 723 = $34523.25. The difference between the values is $10483.47. Thus, you gained $10483.47.

\frac{x^{2} + x - 2}{6x^{2} - 3x} = \sqrt{2x} + \frac{3x^{2}}{2}
\frac{x^{2} + 2x - x - 2}{3x(x) - 3x(1)} = \frac{2\sqrt{2x}}{2} + \frac{3x^{2}}{2}
\frac{x(x) + x(2) - 1(x) - 1(2)}{3x(x - 1)} = \frac{2\sqrt{2x} + 3x^{2}}{2}
\frac{x(x + 2) - 1(x + 2)}{3x(2x - 1)} = \frac{2\sqrt{2x} + 3x^{2}}{2}
\frac{(x - 1)(x + 2)}{3x(2x - 1)} = \frac{2\sqrt{2x} + 3x^{2}}{2}
\frac{(x - 1)(x + 2)}{3x(2x - 1)} = \frac{2\sqrt{2x} + 3x^{2}}{2}
3x(2x - 1)(2\sqrt{2x} + 3x^{2}) = 2(x + 2)(x - 1)
3x(2x(2\sqrt{2x} + 3x^{2}) - 1(2\sqrt{2x} + 3x^{2}) = 2(x(x - 1) + 2(x - 1))
3x(2x(2\sqrt{2x}) + 2x(3x^{2}) - 1(2\sqrt{2x}) - 1(3x^{2})) = 2(x(x) - x(1) + 2(x) - 2(1)
3x(4x\sqrt{2x} + 6x^{3} - 2\sqrt{2x} - 3x^{2}) = 2(x^{2} - x + 2x - 2)
3x(4x\sqrt{2x} - 2\sqrt{2x} + 6x^{3} - 3x^{2}) = 2(x^{2} + x - 2)
3x(4x\sqrt{2x}) - 3x(2\sqrt{2x}) + 3x(6x^{3}) - 3x(3x^{2}) = 2(x^{2}) + 2(x) - 2(2)
12x^{2}\sqrt{2x} - 6x\sqrt{2x} + 18x^{4} - 9x^{3} = 2x^{2} + 2x - 4
12x^{2}\sqrt{2x} - 6x\sqrt{2x} = -18x^{4} + 9x^{3} + 2x^{2} + 2x - 4
6x\sqrt{2x}(2x) - 6x\sqrt{2x}(1) = -9x^{3}(2x) - 9x^{3}(-1) + 2(x^{2}) + 2(x) - 2(2)
6x\sqrt{2x}(2x - 1) = -9x^{3}(2x - 1) + 2(x^{2} + x - 2)
