Given that amplitude and energy are related, the amplitude of a wave is dependent upon A. the amount of energy carried by the wave.
These two are connected, so one affects the other and vice versa.

Answer:

A. the amount of energy carried by the wave. B. the maximum displacement from the rest position.

Explanation:

The amplitude of wave is the maximum displacement by the particle from the rest position. The displacement in positive axis is called the crest of wave while the displacement in negative axis is called the trough of a wave. It is also known as the amount of energy carried by the wave.

Hence, the correct options is D "both A and B".

An electron accelerates through a 12.5 V potential difference, starting from rest, and then collides with a hydrogen atom, excit
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Initial state    Final state

     3           ⇒        2

     3           ⇒        1

     2          ⇒         1

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Bohr's atomic model

         E = - 13.606 / n²

where is the value of 13.606 eV is the energy of the ground state and n is the integer.

The energy acquired by the electron in units of electron volt (eV)

          E = e V

          E = 12.5 eV

all this energy is used to transfer an electron from the ground state to an excited state

        ΔE = 13.6060 (1 / n₀² - 1 / n²)

the ground state has n₀ = 1

       ΔE = 13.606 (1 -  1/n²)

        1 /n² = 1 - ΔE/13,606

         1 / n² = 1 - 12.5 / 13.606

         1 / n² = 0.08129

          n = √(1 / 0.08129)

          n = 3.5

 since n is an integer, maximun is

         n = 3

because it cannot give more energy than the electron has

From this level there can be transition to reach the base state.

     3           ⇒        2

     3           ⇒        1

     2          ⇒         1

Suppose that the weight (in pounds) of an airplane is a linear function of the amount of fuel (in gallons) in its tank. When car
Inessa [10]

Answer:

W=2219pounds

Explanation:

If the weight  is a linear function of the amount of fuel, the following correlation is fulfilled :

\frac{2153pounds-1999pounds}{46gallons-18gallons} = \frac{W-1999pounds}{58gallons-18galons}

we solve the equation:

W=2219pounds

explain y it is easier to loosen a tight but using a spanner with along handle than with a short handle​
8090 [49]

Answer:

This is because using a long handled requires less force to the center of gravity and makes it easier to rotate than a short handled spanner

4. Compare how thermal and electrical energy transfer between objects and give an example of how you can
Leokris [45]

Answer:

4) we take a can of cold soda there is a transfer from hand to can.  a current passes through a light bulb, it becomes incandescent and gives ligh

5) the law of energy conservation states that energy is neither created nor destroyed, therefore what happens is that you use energy and transform it into another type of energy,

Explanation:

4) This exercise is asked to give some examples of thermal and electrical energy transfer

the transfer of thermal energy occurs when we grasp a hot or cold body due to the difference in temperature between the body and us there is an exchange of heat, for example when drinking a cup of hot coffee there is a transfer of energy from the cup to the hand .

If we take a can of cold soda there is a transfer from hand to can.

Electrical transfer occurs, for example, when a current passes through a light bulb, it becomes incandescent and gives light.

In all modern electrical appliances there is transformation of electrical energy

5) the law of energy conservation states that energy is neither created nor destroyed, therefore what happens is that you use energy and transform it into another type of energy,

For example, when you lift a box, the potential energy of the box increases with height, but the energy of the person decreases because it does work that is negative.

In amusement park rides, the energy accumulated in one part of the game generally with height is transformed into energy of movement in another part of the game, but the total energy remains constant.
