Answer:

It is increased

Explanation:

If the amplitude of a transverse wave in a string is increased, then also, the speed of that wave along the string also increases.

In transverse waves, the particles of the medium does move vertically, m either up or down and also moves at right angles to the direction of the wave. It should be noted also, that the wave amplitude of a transverse wave is defined as the difference in height between the crest(high) and the resting position(low).

The highest point particles of the medium reach is often tagged as the crest, while the lowest point is tagged as the resting position. The higher the height of the crests are, the greater the amplitude of the wave will be.

If wheel turning at a constant rate completes 100 revolutions in 10 s its angular speed is:

GenaCL600 [577]

The frequency of the wheel is given by:
$f= \frac{N}{t}$
where N is the number of revolutions and t is the time taken. By using N=100 and t=10 s, we find the frequency of the wheel:
$f= \frac{100}{10 s}=10 s^{-1}$

And now we can find the angular speed of the wheel, which is related to the frequency by:
$\omega=2 \pi f=2 \pi (10 s^{-1})=62.8 s^{-1}$

What is the stretch when you pull with a force of 25 N on a spring with a spring constant of 8 N/m? *

Pani-rosa [81]

Hooke's Law

$\tt F=k.\Delta x$

k = spring constant

x = stretch

F = force

Input the value

$\tt \Delta x=\dfrac{F}{k}=\dfrac{25}{8}=3.125\rightarrow 3.13\:m$

Explain how all the organelles in a cell model work together to provide nutrition and energy for the cell.

slega [8]

These organelles are like the organs in a human and they help the cell stay alive. Each organelle has it's own specific function to help the cell survive. The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell directs the cell's activities and stores DNA. Eukaryotes also have a golgi apparatus that packages and distributes proteins.
