Answer:

A: the full height of a wave

Explanation:

Amplitude of wave is defined as the maximum displacement of wave from it's mean position.

So here when we draw the wave shape then the maximum displacement of wave will be the height of wave which we can draw here as amplitude

mean position is defined as the middle of the wave at which we can say that its net force will be zero and all particles will be at mid point at that.

so we can find the distance of mid point and maximum distance from that which is known as amplitude

The amplitude of the wave is the 'full height of the wave.' Amplitude is measured in m (meters) and is measured over the change of a single period.

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

C. 14.93 m

Explanation:

The given frequency of the wave, f = 100 Hz

The given equation for the wave speed, <em>v</em>, is presented as follows;

v = f × λ

The speed of sound in water, v = 1,493 m/s

Therefore, we get;

The wavelength, λ = v/f

∴ λ = 1,493 m/s/(100 Hz) = 14.93 m

The wavelength, λ = 14.93 m.

During a demonstration of the gravitational force on falling objects to her class, Sarah drops an 11 lb. bowling ball from the t
leonid [27]

The instant it was dropped, the ball had zero speed.

After falling for 1 second, its speed was 9.8 m/s straight down (gravity).

Its AVERAGE speed for that 1 second was (1/2) (0 + 9.8) = 4.9 m/s.

Falling for 1 second at an average speed of 4.9 m/s, is covered <em>4.9 meters</em>.

ANYTHING you drop does that, if air resistance doesn't hold it back.
