Answer: option A - an increase in the height of the sound wave
Explanation:
Loud sounds are carried by waves that have a higher amplitude (height between peak and trough) than quiet sounds. The bigger the amplitude of a sound wave, the louder it sounds to our ears.
So, the perceived increase in the volume of sound is best explained by an increase in the height of the sound wave
According to the kinetic molecular theory, the average kinetic energy of gas particles is proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas. This can be expressed with the following equation where k represents the Boltzmann constan
Answer:
The activity which causes the least amount of wetland and estuary degradation when it occurs near the coast is:
A. dune grass rehabilitation
Explanation:
This is actually a rehabilitation effort, unlike the other three options that cause land degradation. A dune grass rehabilitation accretes sand and minimizes the rates of beach erosion. The program tries to protect coastal infrastructure and upland properties from storm damage by planting vegetation, fencing off sensitive areas, blocking storm surge, creating dune walkways, and absorbing wave energy. During dune grass rehabilitation, activities that adversely affect the dunes are avoided.
