Answer A is incorrect
A crest is just one point. It is not the distance between 2 crests.
B is incorrect
A trough is just 1 point. It is not the distance between 2 troughs.
C is incorrect.
the amplitude measures the height of a crest from the middle of the wave to the crest (or trough).
D is the correct answer. That is the distance between 2 crests or 2 troughs
Start by facing East. Your first displacement is the vector
<em>d</em>₁ = (225 m) <em>i</em>
Turning 90º to the left makes you face North, and walking 350 m in this direction gives the second displacement,
<em>d</em>₂ = (350 m) <em>j</em>
Turning 30º to the right would have you making an angle of 60º North of East, so that walking 125 m gives the third displacement,
<em>d</em>₃ = (125 m) (cos(60º) <em>i</em> + sin(60º) <em>j</em> )
<em>d</em>₃ ≈ (62.5 m) <em>i</em> + (108.25 m) <em>j</em>
The net displacement is
<em>d</em> = <em>d</em>₁ + <em>d</em>₂ + <em>d</em>₃
<em>d</em> ≈ (287.5 m) <em>i</em> + (458.25 m) <em>j</em>
and its magnitude is
|| <em>d</em> || = √[ (287.5 m)² + (458.25 m)² ] ≈ 540.973 m ≈ 541 m
Answer:
Machine Efficiency
Explanation:
Efficiency is the percent of work put into a machine by the user (input work) that becomes work done by the machine (output work). The output work is always less than the input work because some of the input work is used to overcome friction. Therefore, efficiency is always less than 100 percent
The answer is D. Either absorbed or reflected. The reason is because if no light is being shown on the other side, the substance is not letting any light pass through. Since we do not know anything else about the substance, we do not know which one of the two it is doing. The scientist would not see any light on the detector if 100% of the light is reflected and the same thing would happen if 100% of the light was absorbed.
