<u>Answer:</u> The amplitude of the wave is 3 cm

<u>Explanation:</u>

Amplitude is defined as the maximum distance that is moved by a point on a wave which is measured from its equilibrium position. It is equal to the half the length of the vibration path.

In the given figure,

OA is the one half of the distance of the vibration pathway and is the amplitude of the wave.

Distance of OA = 3 cm

Hence, the amplitude of the wave is 3 cm

The amplitude is from the absolute value of the 0 point on the y-axis to the highest(peak) or lowest(troph) point of the wave. In this question, 3cm is the highest and -3cm is the lowest, so the amplitude is 3cm.

A primary advantage of composite materials is: (choose all that apply). 1.) high strength 2.) low weight 3.) ease of constructio

icang [17]

Answer:

primary advantage of composite material are high strength, low weight, corrosion resistance

Explanation:

The primary advantage of composite material is

1) high strength - they are stronger in strength than commanly used material like steel and aluminium.

2)low weight - lighter than most of the material like woods and others metals

3) corrosion resistance - it resist extreme condition of weather and can be good place where handling of chemicals takes place.

Answer:

b) √[(kx²/m) - 2gx]

Explanation:

The energy at the lowest point is equal to:

$E_{elas}=\frac{1}{2} *k*x^{2}$

where:

Eelas = elastic energy [J]

k = spring constant [N/m]

x = extension of the spring [m]

We consider the lowest point, as the point where the potential energy is zero. At the moment when the person goes back through the point of the normal length of the elastic cord, it is this point that the person will have potential energy and kinetic energy.

$E_{elas}=E_{pot}+E_{kine}\$

$\frac{1}{2}*k*x^{2}=m*g*x +\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\v^{2} = \frac{k*x^{2} }{m}-2*g*x\\ v=\sqrt{\frac{k*x^{2} }{m}-2*g*x}$
