Wavelength - the distance from one wave crest or trough to another wave crest or trough. Amplitude - the distance from the median point or "middle" of the wave straight up to a crest (a maximum) or straight down to a trough (or minimum), which is the peak amplitude; or the distance from a trough straight up to a crest, or a crest straight down to a trough, called peak-to-peak amplitude.
Answer:
The solution was to implement an absolute magnitude scale to provide a reference between stars. To do so, astronomers calculate the brightness of stars as they would appear if it were 32.6 light-years, or 10 parsecs from Earth.
Explanation:
Answer:
A lateral eruptions or lateral blast is a volcanic eruption which is directed laterally from a volcano rather than upwards from the summit. Lateral eruptions are caused by the outward expansion of flanks due to rising magma. Breaking occurs at the flanks of volcanoes making it easier for magma to flow outward.
Explanation:
Explanation:
The increase in the body temperature of pronghorn, the fastest North American animal, results from the chemical energy of the pronghorn converting into kinetic energy with efficiency less than 100%. The remaining energy is converted into heat energy. Thus, raising the temperature of pronghorn.
Due to the chemical energy it gains both kinetic and heat energy.
