The amplitude of a wave tells us about the intensity or brightness of the light relative to other light waves of the same wavelength.
Answer:
Option C. 1.2 m
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
horizontal velocity (u) = 2.08 m/s
Horizontal distance (s) = 0.96 m
Height (h) of the table =?
Next, we shall determine the time taken for the lab cart to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:
horizontal velocity (u) = 2.08 m/s
Horizontal distance (s) = 0.96 m
Time (t) =?
s = ut
0.96 = 2.08 × t
Divide both side by 2.08
t = 0.96 / 2.08
t = 0.5 s
Finally, we shall determine the height of the table as illustrated below:
Time (t) = 0.5 s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Height (h) of the table =?
h = ½gt²
h = ½× 9.8 × 0.5²
h = 4.9 × 0.25
h = 1.2 m
Thus, the height of the table is 1.2 m
