What of a wave is a measure of the energy it carries

Physics

horsena [70]4 years ago
8 0


The amplitude of a wave is a measure of the energy it carries. The amplitude of a wave is the distance between the midline of a wave and its crest or trough.

Amplitude measures the amount of energy  being transported by a wave. The larger the amplitude, the more the energy that a wave has.

Wave such as water waves have energy. Smaller waves have less energy because they have a smaller amplitude. Tsunamis have very high amplitudes and thus have a huge amount of energy

Your question: "the picture shows a professional diver with a mass of 93 kg from a 25 m high cliff. Earths Gravity is acting on
GuDViN [60]

When we see the words "Which statement ... ", we know right away that there
will be a list of choices, and we're expected to select our answer from that list.
Strangely, the list of answer-choices for this question has been lost.

Similarly, when we see the words "The picture shows ... ", it's hard to fight
the impulse to look around.  In the present situation, <em>that's</em> missing too.

If the diver is just standing there, then the reaction force provided by the cliff
against his feet must be exactly equal to his weight.  If the vertical forces acting
on the soles of his feet were not balanced, then his feet would be accelerating
vertically.

His weight is  (mass) x (gravity) =

                     (93 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = <em>911.4 newtons</em> (about 205 pounds) .

That's also the strength of the upward reaction force provided by the cliff.

Two children weighing 40 lbs and 50 lbs each are balancing their teacher weighing 120 lbs on a seesaw. The teacher is sitting 5
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

5 feet

Explanation:

First lets imagine that the values are in meters and kg, to make it easier for me.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The force created by the teacher is 120 × 5 = 600N.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The force created by the 50 kg student is 50 × 8 = 400N

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The force that needs to be created by the 40 kg student is 600N - 400N = 200N.

To create that force that student needs to sit 200 ÷ 40 = 5m.

So the 40 lbs student is sitting 5 feet from the fulcrum.

A box is being pushed by two stellar science students , one on each side of the box . Chidera is pushing the box with a force of
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Chidera is the stronger individual pushing the box with a net force of 5N to the left.

Explanation:

Chidera is using more force meaning they are stronger and the net force is 5N because when you plug in the equation

F1 = 30 + F2 = -25 = 5N

you get 5N
