<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 Equation will you use to solve this question (use the chart at the end of the lesson) While skiing, Sam flies down a hill
ozzi

A.Momentum Equation

m = mass = 75 kg

v = velocity = 18 m/s

P = momentum

Using the momentum equation , momentum is given as

P = mv

P = 75 x 18

P = 1350 kgm/s

“Is it correct to say that a radio wave can be considered a low-frequency light wave?
klio [65]

It's weird but technically correct to say that a radio wave can be considered a low-frequency light wave.  Radio and light are both electromagnetic waves.  The only difference is that radio waves have much much much longer wavelengths, and much much much lower frequencies, than light waves have.  But they're both the same physical phenomenon.

However, a radio wave CAN'T also be considered to be a sound wave.  These two things are as different as two waves can be.

-- Radio is an electromagnetic wave. Sound is a mechanical wave.

-- Radio waves travel more than 800 thousand times faster than sound waves do.

-- Radio waves are transverse waves. Sound waves are longitudinal waves.

-- Radio waves can travel through empty space. Sound waves need material stuff to travel through.

-- Radio waves can be detected by radio, TV, and microwave receivers. Sound waves can't.

-- Sound waves can be detected by our ears. Radio waves can't.

-- Sound waves can be generated by talking, or by hitting a frying pan with a spoon. Radio waves can't.

-- Radio waves can be generated by an alternating current flowing through an isolated wire. Sound waves can't.
