It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier.

Scientific notation is a system used in order to It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier. It is useful as it allows very large number that would take a lot of space to write otherwise, and it allows them to be calculated easier. 10^{23} for example is a incredible large number, but written in this form is immediately understandable and useful for calculation.

Discuss how energy conservation applies to a
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

a) in the upper position. b) in the lower position. c) in the lower position. d) in the upper position. f) Its kinetic and potential energy will be 0, but the energy is transferred to the element or body that stopped the movement of the pendulum

Explanation:

In the attached image we have the sketch of a pendulum system.

A) The potential energy is maximum when the pendulum is in the upper position (image, fig 1) because the elevation (h) is maximum with respect to the reference point.

B) the potential energy is minimum when the pendulum is in the lower pasition (image, fig 2) because the elevation (h) is cero with respect to the reference point.

Note: When the pendulum is coming down the potential energy is transforming in kinetic energy.

C) The kinetic energy is maximum when the pendulum is in the lower position (image, fig 2), because the potential energy has been transformed in kinetic energy.

D) The kinetic energy is maximum when the pendulum is in the upper position (image, fig 1) because at this moment the pendulum is at rest it means its velocity is 0. We know that the kinetic energy depends on the velocity.

f) The energy is transferred to the element or body that stopped the movement of the pendulum

This chart shows characteristics of three different waves, all with the same wavelength of 10 m but moving at different Which st
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Wave X is moving the fastest.

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of the wave is given as the product of frequency and wavelength

so here we will have

\lambda = 10 m

now for wave X

f = 6 Hz

now the speed of this wave is

v_x = 10 \times 6 = 60 m/s

now for wave Y

f = 0.5 Hz

now the speed of this wave is

v_y = 10 \times 0.5 = 5 m/s

now for wave Z

f = 2 Hz

now the speed of this wave is

v_z = 10 \times 2 = 20 m/s

So correct answer will be

Wave X is moving the fastest.
