<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is a chainsaw, diesel truck, rustling leaves.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The amplitude of the sound wave is the maximum displacement of the particles from their resting position.
  • Higher the amplitude means high sound.
  • So the sound of a chainsaw is high, so its amplitude will be great and after that the amplitude of diesel truck is high and rustling leaves have the lowest amplitude.

The correct option is:

<span>chainsaw, diesel truck, rustling leaves

In fact, this option lists the sounds from greatest amplitude (which means, greatest loudness) to smallest amplitude. For comparison, this is the intensity of the three different sounds:
- chain saw: approximately 120 dB
- diesel truck: approximately 80 dB
- rustling leaves: approximately 20 dB

Which of the following represents the velocity of an object?
mr_godi [17]

Answer:Velocity can be represented by an arrow, with the length of the arrow representing speed and the way the arrow points representing direction. Objects have the same velocity only if they are moving at the same speed and in the same direction. ... The SI unit for velocity is m/s, plus the direction the object is traveling.
