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.

If you have 20.0 g of CO2, how many atoms of Oxygen (O) are present in the sample?
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

20 g of CO₂ have 5.47x10²³ oxygen atoms

Explanation:

1 mol of CO₂ has 1 mol of C and 2 moles of O.

Mass / Molar mass = Moles

20 g / 44 g/m = 0.454 moles

In 1 mol we find 2 moles of O

In 0.454 moles of CO₂, we will find ( 0.454  .2) = 0.909 moles

1 mol has _____ 6.02x10²³ atoms

0.909 moles have (0.909 .  6.02x10²³) = 5.47x10²³ atoms
