1.) The properties of a wave are the following.
a) <span><span>Amplitude - the height of the wave, measured in meters.
</span><span>b) Wavelength - the distance between adjacent crests, measured in meters.
</span><span>c) Period - the time it takes for one complete wave to pass a given point, measured in seconds.
</span><span>d) Frequency - the number of complete waves that pass a point in one second, measured in inverse seconds, or Hertz (Hz).
</span><span>e) Speed - the horizontal speed of a point on a wave as it propagates, measured in meters / second.

Among these properties, PERIOD and SPEED changes if the wave changes media. The others remain the same.

2. Speed = Wavelength * Frequency
    Wavelength and Frequency are independent from each other. But you can use the given formula and assume values to check the reaction of one from another.

3. Energy of a wave is based on its amplitude. High amplitude means high energy and vice versa. To increase the energy of a wave, the amplitude must be increased. Another way of increasing the energy of a wave is using elastic medium. </span></span>

Calculation using Ohm's Law: If a circuit has a voltage of 500 V and a resistance of 250 ohms, what is the current?
konstantin123 [22]

I = V / R

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

Current = (500 V) / (250 ohms)

Current = (500/250) Amperes

<em>Current = 2 Amperes</em>

A planet’s gravity is related to which of the following? (Points : 5)
katovenus [111]

-- <span>The gravitational force that you feel when you stand on the surface
of a planet depends on the planet's mass and size.  It has </span><span><span>nothing
to do with the planet's orbit.  (</span>Of course,"size" is also related to the
planet's mass, density, and surface area.)

-- One possible cause of deforestation is the removal of trees without
adequate replanting.

-- According to Hubble’s Law, the farther away a galaxy is, the faster
it is moving away from us

-- Electromagnetic energy can be defined as energy that moves at
the speed of light.  If you conduct experiments to determine whether
the electromagnetic energy is moving in the form of particles or waves,
you find that it behaves as both.</span>

The intensity of light from a star varies inversely as the square of the distance. If you lived on a planet ten times farther aw
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

the intensity of the sun on the other planet is a hundredth of that of the intensity of the sun on earth.

That is,

Intensity of sun on the other planet, Iₒ = (intensity of the sun on earth, Iₑ)/100

Explanation:

Let the intensity of light be represented by I

Let the distance of the star be d

I ∝ (1/d²)

I = k/d²

For the earth,

Iₑ = k/dₑ²

k = Iₑdₑ²

For the other planet, let intensity be Iₒ and distance be dₒ

Iₒ = k/dₒ²

But dₒ = 10dₑ

Iₒ = k/(10dₑ)²

Iₒ = k/100dₑ²

But k = Iₑdₑ²

Iₒ = Iₑdₑ²/100dₑ² = Iₑ/100

Iₒ = Iₑ/100

Meaning the intensity of the sun on the other planet is a hundredth of that of the intensity on earth.

Which particle is most likely to interact with your hand? Select one: a. Alpha particle b. Beta particle c. Gamma particle d. Ne
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The correct option is a

Explanation:

The alpha particle has the lowest penetrating power of the trio of alpha, beta and gamma particles and can be stopped by a sheet of paper and hence cannot penetrate a human skin. Beta particle has a higher penetrating power than alpha particle (some of it penetrates the human skin and some do not) while the gamma particle has the highest penetrating power (with all of it penetrating the human skin).

From the above description, it can be deduced that the alpha particle will stay and interact with the hand (because of its low penetrating power) as the remaining particles move through the skin.
