Answer:

a.) high amplitude, high frequency

Explanation:

Frequency and amplitude are properties of sound. Varying these properties changes how people perceive sound.

While hearing sound of a particular frequency we call it pitch i.e., the perception of a frequency of sound.

High pitch means high frequency and high frequency is perceived to have a shrill sound.

The loudness of a sound is measured by the intensity of sound i.e., the energy the sound possesses per unit area. As the amplitude increases the intensity increases. So, a loud sound will have higher density.

Hence, the loud shrill whistle will have high frequency and high amplitude.

Compare and contrast an earthquake and a tsunami.

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

An earthquake is a trembling movement of the earth's crust. These tremors are generally caused by shifts of the plates that make up the earth's surface. ... A tsunami (pronounced soo-NAHM-ee) is a series of huge waves that occur as the result of a violent underwater disturbance, such as an earthquake or volcanic eruption.

anzhelika [568]

The Earth takes (365 and 1/4) days to orbit the sun. That's the length of our 'year'.

Since it's not really possible to make our calendar a quarter of a day longer every year, we make the calendar a <u><em>whole</em></u> day longer every 4 years.

So "Leap years" make up for the extra one-fourth day the Earth takes to orbit the sun.

An object begins at position x = 0 and moves one-dimensionally along the x-axis witļi a velocity v

Liula [17]

Answer:

The answer is "between 20 s and 30 s".

Explanation:

Calculating the value of positive displacement:

$\ (x_{+ve}) = \frac{1}{2} \times 15 \times 20 \\\\$

$= \frac{1}{2} \times 300 \\\\= 150 \\\\$

Calculating the value of negative displacement upon the time t:

$(x_{-ve}) = \frac{1}{2} \times 5 \times 20- 20(t-20) \\\\$

$= \frac{1}{2} \times 100- 20t+ 400 \\\\= 50- 20t+ 400 \\\\$

$\to X= X_{+ve} + X_{-ve} \\\\$

$\to 150 - 50 -20t+400 =0\\\\\to 100 -20t+400 =0 \\\\\to 500 -20t =0\\\\\to 20t =500 \\\\\to t=\frac{500}{20}\\\\\to t=\frac{50}{2}\\\\\to t= 25$

That's why its value lie in "between 20 s and 30 s".

Sam is observing the velocity of a car at different times. After two hours, the velocity of the car is 54 km/h. After four hours

MariettaO [177]

With that information you can only suppose a uniformly accelerated motion. This is, acceleration is constant.

Then, acceleration = change in velocity / change in time = (58 -54)km/h / 2 h = 4km/h / 2 h = 2 km/h^2

Then the equation for velocity, V is

V = Vo + a*t = Vo + 2 (km/h^2) * t = Vo + 2t

Vo is the initial velocity, which you can find using V = 54km/h and t = -2

Vo = V after 2 hours - a*(2hours) = 54km/h - 2(km/h^2)*2h = 54km/k - 4km/h = 50km/h

Then, the equation is: V = 50 km/h + 2t

Valid for constant acceleration.
