The amplitude of a sound wave is directly related to the loudness of the sound.

Answer: The correct answer is -

a) amplitude.

Amplitude of a sound wave corresponds to the loudness or intensity or volume of sound.

This means that large amplitude means the energy carried by sound waves is higher, producing higher vibration and thus large intensity of sound is produced.

Thus, amplitude is the right answer.

Explain, step by step, how to calculate the amount of current (I) that will go through the resistor in this circuit

anygoal [31]

Answer:

0.03 A

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Voltage (V) = 12 V

Resistor (R) = 470 Ω

Current (I) =?

From ohm's law, the voltage, current and resistor are related by the following formula:

Voltage = current × resistor

V = IR

With the above formula, we can obtain the current in the circuit as follow:

Voltage (V) = 12 V

Resistor (R) = 470 Ω

Current (I) =?

V = IR

12 = I × 470

Divide both side by 470

I = 12 / 470

I = 0.03 A

Thus, the current in the circuit is 0.03 A

A 75-m-long train begins uniform acceleration from rest. the the train has a speed of 23 m/s when it passes a railway worker tan

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

acceleration a = 1.04 m/s2

Explanation:

Assume the train has a speed of 23m/s when the last car passes the railway workers. Once this happens the last car would have traveled a total distance of the 180m distance between the railway worker standing 180 m from where the front of the train started plus the 75m distance from the first car to the last car:

s = 75 + 180 = 255 m

We can use the following equation of motion to find out the distance traveled by the car:

$v^2 - v_0^2 = 2as$ where v = 23 m/s is the velocity of the car when it passes the worker, $v_0$ = 0m/s is the initial velocity of the car when it starts, a m/s2 is the acceleration, which we are looking for.

$23^2 - 0^2 = 2*a*255$

$510a = 529$

$a = 529 / 510 = 1.04 m/s^2$

When the sound from two sound waves goes up and down (loud, soft, loud, soft) it makes a distinctive sound pattern called beats.

djverab [1.8K]

The beats are actually two new sounds.

Their frequencies are (the sum of the original two frequencies) and (the difference of the original two frequencies).

The existence of the beats is the result of the difference in the frequencies of the original two sounds. <em> (b)</em>

Jonathan must lift a 3000n rock using a lever. jonathan uses 300n of force to push down on the lever to move the rock. what is t

-Dominant- [34]

The load is the weight of the rock that Jonathan lifts:
$L=3000 N$
The effort instead is the force applied in input to the lever in order to lift the rock:
$E=300 N$

So, the ratio between load and effort for this exercise is
$\frac{L}{E}= \frac{3000 N}{300 N}=10$
So, the ratio is 10:1.
