Answer:
hertz (Hz)
The number of periods or cycles per second is called frequency. The SI unit for frequency is the hertz (Hz).
Location A receives more rainfall than Location B due to the rain shadow effect.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- Rain shadow effect is caused due to the presence of mountains.
- A rain shadow area is an area of land that has been forced to become dry, devoid of any vegetation growth due to the blockage of precipitation by mountains. These rain shadow areas will have a dry climate.
- The other side of the mountain would receive plenty of precipitation and therefore would be flourished with plant growth. These areas will have a cool and wet climate.
- In this case, Location A is on the other side of the mountain and so receives more rainfall or precipitation. Meanwhile, Location B is on the rain shadow region and so receives less rainfall.
For the first hour, the slope is zero.
After that, the slope is -2 miles per hour.
Answer: D(t) = 
Explanation: A harmonic motion of a spring can be modeled by a sinusoidal function, which, in general, is of the form:
y =
or y = 
where:
|a| is initil displacement
is period
For a Damped Harmonic Motion, i.e., when the spring doesn't bounce up and down forever, equations for displacement is:
or 
For this question in particular, initial displacement is maximum at 8cm, so it is used the cosine function:
period =
12 =
ω = 
Replacing values:

The equation of displacement, D(t), of a spring with damping factor is
.
