Answer:

OPTION D (The waves will sometimes get very high and very low) is the answer.

Explanation:

Wavelength = velocity ÷ frequency

As the frequency which measures the number of waves per unit of time is inversely proportional to the wavelength, point X which lies between two sources, and one source is shorter than another, the wave heights at point x will vary as the distances from point X vary too. This means that waves at point X depending on the wave type and source will get very high at times and very low.

A person observes a firework display for A safe distance of .750 km. Assuming that sound travels at 340 m/s in air what is the t
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

t = 2.2 s

Explanation:

Given that,

A person observes a firework display for A safe distance of 0.750 km.

d = 750 m

The speed of sound in air, v = 340 m/s

We need to find the between the person see and hear a firework explosion. let it is t. So, using the formula of speed.

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{750\ m}{340\ m/s}\\\\t=2.2\ s

So, the required time is 2.2 seconds.

What has highest frequency in electromagnetic spectrum color?
natulia [17]
In Electromagnetic spectrum, X-rays has very high frequency but gamma-rays has more than that. If you consider cosmic rays as an electromagnetic wave, then it would be highest energetic and has highest frequency.

In short, Your Answer is "Cosmic rays"

Hope this helps!

2. As a pendulum swings, its energy is constantly converted between kinetic
Alex

Answer:

at point F

Explanation:

To know the point in which the pendulum has the greatest potential energy you can assume that the zero reference of the gravitational energy (it is mandatory to define it) is at the bottom of the pendulum.

Then, when the pendulum reaches it maximum height in its motion the gravitational potential energy is

U = mgh

m: mass of the pendulum

g: gravitational constant

The greatest value is obtained when the pendulum reaches y=h

Furthermore, at this point the pendulum stops to come back in ts motion and then the speed is zero, and so, the kinetic energy (K=1/mv^2=0).

A) answer, at point F
