If the amplitude of a wave is 4 feet, what is the Wave Height?

Alexus [3.1K]3 years ago

A wave is a disturbance that moves along a medium from one end to the other. If one watches an ocean wave moving along the medium (the ocean water), one can observe that the crest of the wave is moving from one location to another over a given interval of time. The crest is observed to cover distance. The speed of an object refers to how fast an object is moving and is usually expressed as the distance traveled per time of travel. In the case of a wave, the speed is the distance traveled by a given point on the wave (such as a crest) in a given interval of time. In equation form,

Explanation :

The height of the wave is defined as the elevation of the crest minus the elevation of the trough.

or

The wave height is defined as the twice of the amplitude.

It is given that the amplitude of the wave is 4 feet. The height of the wave is given as :

H=2a

Where a is the amplitude of the wave.

So, H = 8 feet.

Hence, this is the required solution.

If a rock on a cliff starts with 3,000 J of GPE and 0 J of KE and ends with 0 J of GPE and 5,000 J of KE, what law of physics wo
alexgriva [62]

The law of physics that this scenario would violate is the law of conservation of energy.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>

The law of conservation of energy states that energy possessed by an object or physical body can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be transformed from one form to another.

This ultimately implies that, the energy possessed by the rock at the beginning must be equal to the energy possessed by the rock at the end in accordance with the law of conservation of energy.

Let this oscillator have the same energy as a mass on a spring, with the same k and m, released from rest at a displacement of 5
allochka39001 [22]
There are a lot of same examples that you may have worked before, where the mass on a spring uses a classics when it comes to mechanics. So in this system, always put in your mind that there is an enormous quantum standard that one can use in the equation. It should be 2.10x10 raise to a negative sixth. J.

A rod of 2.0-m length and a square (2.0 mm X 2.0 mm) cross section is made of a material with a resistivity of 6.0 E–8 Ohm meter
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

8.33*10^-16 Watt

Explanation:

Given that

Length of the rod, l = 2 m,

Area of the rod, A = 2 x 2 mm² = 4*10^-6 m²

resistivity of the rod, p = 6*10^-8 ohm metre,

Potential difference of the rod, V = 0.5 V

Let R be the resistance of the rod, then

R = p * l / A

R = (6*10^-8 * 2) / (4*10^-6)

R = 3*10^14 ohm

Heat generated per second = V² / R Heat = (0.5)² / (3*10^14)

Heat = 0.25 / 3*10^14

Heat = 8.33*10^-16 Watt

Therefore, the rate at which heat is generated is 8.33*10^-16 Watt
