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.

Explain the conductivity results observed for sodium chloride in the solid state and in aqueous solution
Fittoniya [83]

NaCl when in solid state does not conduct electricity while it does in aqueous solution.

Explanation:

NaCl (or what we call common salt) first needs to be either melted or dissolved in a solution for it to conduct electricity. The reason for this is that electrons in a solid state does not have enough freedom to move to either the Cathode (-ve) or to the Anode (+ve). So in a liquid state the electrons are now free enough to move.
