The energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the waves amplitude. Therefore, E = A² where A is the amplitude. This therefore means when the amplitude of a wave is doubled the energy will be quadrupled, when the amplitude is tripled the energy increases by a nine fold and so on.
Thus, in this case if the energy is 4J, then the amplitude will be √4 = 2 .
Answer:
Solid-state
Explanation:
A solid-state device can be defined as a crystalline material that is typically made up of semiconductor and as such controls the number and rate of flow of charged carriers such as holes or electrons.
Some examples of a solid-state device are light emitting diodes (LED), integrated circuit (IC), Transistors, liquid crystal display (LCD) etc.
A solid-state device such as a transistor, refers to a semiconductor component that is used to control the flow of voltage or current and as a gate (switch) for electronic signals. Thus, a transistor allows for the amplification, control and generation of electronic signals in a circuit.
Hence, solid-state devices need constant power to operate. The timing functions are initiated by the presence or absence of a separate "trigger" signal.
Basically, these solid-state devices use the optical and electrical properties of semiconductor components such as transistors, triacs, thyristors, diodes to perform its input-output switching and isolation functions.
Answer: 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1
Explanation: The electric flux, electric field intensity and area are related by the formulae below.
Φ= EAcosθ,
Where Φ= electric flux (Nm²c^-1)
E =electric field intensity (N/m²)
A = Area (m²)
θ= this is angle between the planar area and the magnetic flux
For our question E=3.80KN/c= 3800 N/c
A= 0.700 x 0.350= 0.245m²
θ= 0° ( this is because the electric field was applied along the x axis, thus the electric flux will be parallel to the area).
Hence Φ= 3800 x 0.245 x cos(0)
= 3800 x 0.245 x 1 (value of cos 0° =1)
= 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1
Thus the electric field is 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1
First, when the student added the layers of wax over each other, this became a representation of sedimentary rocks.
Then the student folded his/her palm and squeezed the layers of wax. This means that the student applied heat and pressure on the wax (sedimentary rocks)
Referring to the diagram below which represents the rock cycle, we will find that applying heat and pressure on sedimentary rocks would convert these rocks into metamorphic rocks.
Based on the above, the best choice would be:<span>d. Heat and pressure can change sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks.</span>
Answer:
(B) The speed is larger at A than at B.
Explanation:
Point B, the final point of the trajectory, has higher electric potential than point A, the initial point of the trajectory, so the electric potential energy of the charged particle increases, which means that its kinetic energy must be decreasing, thus the speed at B must be lower than the speed at A.
