<span>The zero reference position should be the position the system has the least potential energy. As an object falls, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. Gravity's ability to do work (potential energy) reaches zero when it hits the ground and stops falling, hence the ground is the most common zero reference position.</span>

The data table shows how the amplitude of a mechanical wave varies with the energy it carries. Analyze the data to identify the
Maslowich

The energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave.

<h3>What is the relationship between energy and amplitude?</h3>

There is direct relationship between energy of the wave and the amplitude of the wave. The energy transported by a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave. This means if energy is increase the amplitude of wave becomes double and vice versa.

Energy = (amplitude)2

So we can conclude that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave.

Which part of the ear receives the signal from the eardrum?​
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Ossicles

Explanation:

Sound causes eardrums to vibrate. These vibrations are then passed on to the ossicles, which is made up of 3 small bones-- the malleus, incus, and stapes. The stapes are connected to the inner ear, specifically to the cochlea which transforms sound waves into electrical signals that are sent to the brain.

s person is deciding whether to install solar panels on her house. lt and explain three pieces of info she needs to consider to
Marrrta [24]
Efficiency- How much energy is wasted and how much useful energy is produced
Money- How expensive to install them
Location- She has to consider the location where she places them so that there is enough sunlight and light energy for the solar panels, obviously she should have solar panels if the location receives a sufficient amount of sunlight
