Answer:
According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed, although it can be changed from one form to another. KE + PE = constant. A simple example involves a stationary car at the top of a hill. As the car coasts down the hill, it moves faster and so it’s kinetic energy increases and it’s potential energy decreases. On the way back up the hill, the car converts kinetic energy to potential energy. In the absence of friction, the car should end up at the same height as it started.
This law had to be combined with the law of conservation of mass when it was determined that mass can be inter-converted with energy.
One can also imagine the energy transformation in a pendulum. When the ball is at the top of its swing, all of the pendulum’s energy is potential energy. When the ball is at the bottom of its swing, all of the pendulum’s energy is kinetic energy. The total energy of the ball stays the same but is continuously exchanged between kinetic and potential forms
Exothermich cools and endo heats so it heats
Answer A is incorrect
A crest is just one point. It is not the distance between 2 crests.
B is incorrect
A trough is just 1 point. It is not the distance between 2 troughs.
C is incorrect.
the amplitude measures the height of a crest from the middle of the wave to the crest (or trough).
D is the correct answer. That is the distance between 2 crests or 2 troughs
Meters per second squared:
If you think about it, acceleration is about how fast speed changes. Speed is measured in meters per second:
So if you take that and just measure it over time, you get meters per second squared.
