If the ice absorbed 350,000 joules in 5 minutes, then it absorbed energy
at the rate of
(350,000 joules) / (5 x 60 seconds) =<em> 1,166-2/3 watts</em> .
Surely the ice cube didn't absorb every joule delivered to the cooking chamber,
so the microwave oven's cooking power had to be significantly more than that.
I say around 40% - 60%

(I just corrected the question. Sorry if it is still incorrect.)
Answer:
a) v = 0.9167 m / s, b) A = 0.350 m, c) v = 0.9167 m / s, d) A = 0.250 m
Explanation:
a) to find the velocity of the wave let us use the relation
v = λ f
the wavelength is the length that is needed for a complete wave, in this case x = 5.50 m corresponds to a wavelength
λ = x
λ = x
the period is the time for the wave to repeat itself, in this case t = 3.00 s corresponds to half a period
T / 2 = t
T = 2t
period and frequency are related
f = 1 / T
f = 1 / 2t
we substitute
v = x / 2t
v = 5.50 / 2 3
v = 0.9167 m / s
b) the amplitude is the distance from a maximum to zero
2A = y
A = y / 2
A = 0.700 / 2
A = 0.350 m
c) The horizontal speed of the traveling wave (waves) is independent of the vertical oscillation of the particles, therefore the speed is the same
v = 0.9167 m / s
d) the amplitude is
A = 0.500 / 2
A = 0.250 m
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. In order for a person to "see" an object, light waves pass through the cornea. The cornea is the transparent layer forming at the front of the eye. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
