DescriptionThe amplitude of a periodic variable is a measure of its change in a single period. There are various definitions of amplitude, which are all functions of the magnitude of the differences between the variable's extreme values. In older texts the phase is sometimes called the amplitude.

Amplitude is a measurement of the magnitude of displacement (or maximum disturbance) of a medium from its resting state, as diagramed in the peak deviation example below (it can also be a measurement of an electrical signal's increased or decreased strength above or below a nominal state).

How do laws differ from theories?

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

A theory is an explanation for what has been shown many times. A scientific law is a relationship in nature that has been proved many times and there are no exceptions.

What are used by organisms for long-term energy storage

kifflom [539]

Answer:

Fatty acids.

Explanation:

-Long term energy storage is stored in the form of triglycerides .

-They are efficient storing molecules. They are more efficient thatn glycogen(cabohydrates).

-Fatty acids are more calori dense hence them being ideal for long term energy storage.

The energy in the typical thunderstorm is about 1.4×1011j. a typical lightning flash transfers 30 c across a potential differenc

iragen [17]

780 seconds, or 13 minutes.

In the future, please use proper capitalization. There's a significant difference in the meaning between mV and MV. One of them indicated millivolts while the other indicates megavolts. For this problem, I'll make the following assumptions about the values presented. They are:
Total energy = 1.4x10^11 Joules (J)
Current per flash = 30 Columbs (C)
Potential difference = 30 Mega Volts (MV)

First, let's determine the power discharged by each bolt. That would be the current multiplied by the voltage, so
30 C * 30x10^6 V = 9x10^8 CV = 9x10^8 J

Now that we know how many joules are dissipated per flash, let's determine how flashes are needed.
1.4x10^11 / 9x10^8 = 1.56E+02 = 156

Since each flash takes 5 seconds, that means that it will take about 5 * 156 = 780 seconds which is about 780/60 = 13 minutes.

determine whether the following equations are dimensionally correct if not how can you make them dimensionally correct 1 /2 mv2

serg [7]

Answer:

$1 /2 mv^{2} =mgh$

Explanation:

The correct equation follows the law of conservation of energy where kinetic energy is all transformed to potential energy, since we know that kinetic energy is expressed as

$1 /2 mv^{2}$ while potential energy is mgh where m is the mass of the object, v is the velocity or speed of the object, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the vertical height. Therefore, relating the two equations we should have $1 /2 mv^{2} =mgh$
