T = 12.4 h, x(t) = .250 d (displacement)
The total amplitude is half of the distance d from the highest to lowest level. 
Using the equation x(t) = x(m) cos(wt + φ), we get: 

.250d = .5d cos(wt + φ) 
To find w, use the equation w = 2π / T 

.250d = .5d cos((2π / 12.4)t + φ) 

.250d = .5d cos((2π / 12.4)t + 0) 

Solve the equation for t. 
.250d / .5d = cos ((2π / 12.4) t) 
arccos(.5) = 2π / 12.4 * t 
arccos(.5) * 12.4 / 2 / π = t 
t = 2.066666 hours

What is the change all living things undergo as the grow
Vladimir [108]
All of the change that living things undergo as they grow is called development. That is the name when the changes are within a single unit and over a period of time as short as a lifetime. When the change occurs over thousands of years then it's called evolution.

A ski lift carries people along a 220-meter cable up the side of a mountain. Riders are lifted a total of 110 meters in elevatio
jeka94

The ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) can be determined by the following equation:

 IMA= Input distance/Output distance

 The Input distance and Output distance are:

 Input distance=220 meters

 Output distance=110 meters

 When you substitute in the equation of the ideal mechanical advantage (IMA), you obtain:

 IMA= Input distance/Output distance

 IMA= 220 meters/110 meters

 IMA=2

Moving the probe 1 cm towards the non-grounded electrode changes the value the potential from about 0.90 V to about 1.2 V. Expla
svp [43]

Answer:

-30 N/C

Explanation:

Since the potential changes from 0.90 V to 1.2 V when I move the probe 1 cm closer to the non-grounded electrode, the electric field is the gradient between the two points is given by E = -ΔV/Δx where ΔV = change in electric potential and Δx = distance of potential change = 1 cm = 0.01 m

Now ΔV = final potential - initial potential = 1.2 V - 0.90 V = 0.30 V

Since E = -ΔV/Δx

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

E = -ΔV/Δx

E = -0.30 V/0.01 m

E = -30 V/m

Since 1 V/m = 1 N/C.

E = -30 N/C

So, the average electric field is -30 N/C
