This distance is known as the amplitude of the wave, and is the characteristic height of the wave, above or below the equilibrium position. Normally the symbol A is used to represent the amplitude of a wave. The SI unit of amplitude is the metre (m).

Explanation:
The mass of an object determines the object's inertia.
Answer:
Law of refraction
Explanation:
An experiment to analyze the refraction of light in water can easily be performed with a laser pointer and protractor.
We throw the fishing rod line into the water, place the protractor at the point where the line touches the water and use the direction of the line for the direction of the laser pointer (on), the laser is visible by the reflection on the particles in the air.
The vertical line is called Normal and all angles must be measured with respect to this reference in optics.
Having these angles and the refractive index of water we can use the law of refraction
n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂
θ₂ =
we can repeat several times to analyze several different input points (different angles) and to decrease the errors in the measurements.
the refractive index of air is n1 = 1 and n2= 1.33 (water)
Answer:Ice that formed thousands of years ago is often found to contain tiny bubbles of gas. This gas came from the ATMOSPHERE.
Explanation:
Atmospheric gases which consists of carbondioxide, nitrogen oxides and rare gases can be trapped inside the water body as bubbles. If these bubbles are surrounded by ice when they form, they get trapped and remain in the ice cube. A typical example of ice that contains bubbles of gases includes glacier ice. These are mass of ice that moves slowly over the land. It preserve bits of atmosphere from thousands of years ago in tiny air bubbles, or, deeper within the core, trapped within the ice itself. This is one way scientists know that there have been several Ice Ages.
