Answer:

Explanation:

a. The amplitude is the measure of the height of the wave from the midline to the top of the wave or the midline to the bottom of the wave (called crests). The midline then divides the whole height in half. Thus, the amplitude of this wave is 9.0 cm.

b. Wavelength is measured from the highest point of one wave to the highest point of the next wave (or from the lowest point of one wave to the lowest point of the next wave, since they are the same). The wavelength of this wave then is 20.0 cm. or \lambda=20.0cm

c. The period, or T, of a wave is found in the equation

f=\frac{1}{T} were f is the frequency of the wave. We were given the frequency, so we plug that in and solve for T:

50.0=\frac{1}{T} so

T=\frac{1}{50.0} and

T = .0200 seconds to the correct number of sig fig's (50.0 has 3 sig fig's in it)

d. The speed of the wave is found in the equation

f=\frac{v}{\lambda} and since we already have the frequency and we solved for the wavelength already, filling in:

50.0=\frac{v}{20.0} and

v = 50.0(20.0) so

v = 1.00 × 10³ m/s

And there you go!

BlackZzzverrR [31]
An exfoliation dome is a geological structure wherein it is primarily when the overburden of a surface gets removed by erosion, thus leading to rock relaxation. In addition, the term would be best applied to the national landmark of Yosemite National Park wherein the place has one of the best waterfalls in California.

Answer:

it should be right it's from go.ogle hm!!!

Explanation:

Anterior or ventral - front (example, the kneecap is located on the anterior side of the leg). Posterior or dorsal - back (example, the shoulder blades are located on the posterior side of the body). Medial - toward the midline of the body (example, the middle toe is located at the medial side of the foot).

Which type of force can be in the same it opposite direction?
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

C) unbalanced

Explanation:

Equal forces acting in opposite directions are called balanced forces. Balanced forces acting on an object will not change the object's motion. When you add equal forces in opposite direction, the net force is zero.
