There's supposed to be a blank in the statement, where the answer is supposed to be inserted.
The question is supposed to say: "A wave is a disturbance that carries ______ from one place to another through matter or space".
To answer the question, write the word "<em>energy</em>" in the blank.
<span>C.
Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy
in an
incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material
is the
smallest.
The coefficient of absorption is the percentage of incident sound
that's absorbed. So the highest coefficient of absorption results in
the smallest </span><span>percentage of the energy in an
incident wave that remains.
That's what you want. </span>
<span>Given:
3,500 kilometers
Find:</span>
Years for two continents to collide = ?
<span>Solution:
We know that </span>typical motions of one plate relative to another
are 1 centimeter per year.
So first, we convert 3,500 km to cm.<span>
</span><span>
</span>
The solution would be like this for this specific problem:
1 km = 100,000 cm
3,500 km x 100,000 = 350,000,000 cm
Since we know that 1 cm = 1 year, then that means
350,000,000 cm is equivalent to 350,000,000 years.
Therefore, it would take 350 million years for two continents
that are 3500 kilometers apart to collide.
<span>
To add, </span>a phenomenon of the plate tectonics of Earth that occurs at
convergent boundaries is called the continental collision.
The formula for work is
. Plugging in the numbers, you get:
The answer is 30 N.
