Answer:

1.21 times

Explanation:

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

Mathematically:

E\propto A^2

where

E is the energy of the wave

A is its amplitude

In this problem, the amplitude of the wave increases by a factor of 1.1; it means that the new amplitude can be written as

A'=1.1 A

Therefore, this means that the energy of the wave increases by a factor:

E'\propto A'^2=(1.1 A)^2 = 1.1^2 A^2 =1.21 A^2 = 1.21 E

Therefore, the energy of the wave increases by a factor 1.21.

Which of the following solutions is a good buffer system? Which of the following solutions is a good buffer system? a solution t
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

A solution that is 0.10 M HC2H3O2 and 0.10 M LiC2H3O2 is a good buffer system.

Explanation:

A buffer is defined as the mixture between a weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.

For the solutions:

0.10 M HF and 0.10 M LiC2H3O2. HF is a weak acid but LiC2H3O2 is the conjugate base of the weak acid (HC2H3O2, acetic acid).

0.10 M HC2H3O2 and 0.10 M LiC2H3O2. Here, you have a mixture of HC2H3O2, acetic acid, weak acid, and LiC2H3O2 is its conjugate base. Thus, <em>this is a good buffer system</em>

<em></em>

0.10 M LiOH and 0.10 M KOH. LiOH ans KOH are both strong bases.

0.10 M HF and 0.10 M NH4+. Again, HF is a weak acid but NH4+ is the conjugate acid of a weak base (NH3).

) A magnet that’s domains remain aligned when removed from a magnetic field.
True [87]

Answer:

Above the Curie temperature, a magnet permanently loses all or some of its magnetism. External magnetic fields: Strong, opposing magnetic fields can cause the magnetic domains to lose their orientation and relax into a lower state of energy where they are not aligned.

What is the ph of a (6.00x10^-3) m hi solution?
KatRina [158]
HI is strong acid, so:
[H+] = [HI]
[H+] = 6 × 10^-3 M

pH = -log[H+]
pH = -log(6 × 10^-3) = 2,22
