Answer

Correct answer is amplitude

Explanation:

Frequency: frequency is the number of complete waves which passes through a point in one second. SI unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz). Frequency depends on Wavelength. Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength. It means if wavelength of wave is higher, then its frequency will be shorter.

Wavelength: wavelength is the distance between adjacent crests. SI unit of wavelength is meters. Wavelength depends on frequency. Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency, it means if frequency of wave is higher, then its wavelength will be shorter.

Speed : Speed of wave is defined as the speed with which a wave propagate in a medium or vacuum. SI unit of speed is m/s. Wave speed depends on wavelength and frequency by following equation

$speed=frequency\times wavelength$

Amplitude: Amplitude is the height of the wave. SI unit of amplitude is meter. Amplitude is independent of frequency, wavelength and speed. So it is correct answer

vredina [299]

A car is built from various subsystems. If these subsystems are not working properly it is dangerous because it can cause a serious traffic accident.

<h3>What subsystems do cars have?</h3>

When you're testing the build of a car, you have to check its many subsystems:

the battery
the engine
the cabin
the thermal-management system
the gearbox
the chassis
the suspension

<h3>Why is a car with damaged subsystems dangerous?</h3>

The subsystems of a car are very important components that allow the proper functioning of the car. These subsystems work synchronously making the car work properly.

However, if one of these subsystems is not working properly it could cause a malfunction that could lead to a traffic accident.

Why do the planets appear in different locations in the night sky while the pattern of stars in a constellation stays the same?

Goshia [24]

I'm sure you've noticed that an airplane high in the sky, far away
from you, looks like it's moving very slowly. At the same time,
somebody passing you on a skateboard whizzes past you at
high speed. The farther away something is from you, the slower
it appears to move.

The nearest star outside the solar system is almost 32 thousand times
as far away from us as the farthest visible planet (Saturn) is, and all of the
other stars are farther than that.

That's why you have to wait a few thousand years before you notice
that the shape of a constellation has changed.

To put it a slightly different way . . . Everything is in motion. The motion is
more noticeable for nearby things, and less noticeable for farther-away things.
Objects within our solar system are the only ones near enough so that a human
lifetime is a long enough period in which to notice the change in their position.
Even Pluto moves less then 1.5° against the 'background' stars in a whole year.

This all makes me feel small. How about you ?
