The amplitude of a wave decreases gradually as the wave travels down a long, stretched string. What happens to the energy of the

wave when this happens? (The frequency is the same).

Answer:

energy decreases

Explanation:

The energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of amplitude of a wave.

Amplitude is defined as the maximum displacement of the wave particle from its mean position.

So, as the amplitude goes on decreasing, the energy of the wave is also decreasing.

You place your hands over a steaming bowl of soup to warm them. Which type of heat transfer are you experiencing?
Pani-rosa [81]

There could be a little bit of conduction through the air that's between the soup and your hand.  But it's very small, because air is not a good conductor of heat.

It's mostly <em>convection</em> ... hot air and steam rising from the soup to your hand.

Then, of course, there HAS to be some conduction when the hot gases reach your hand ... their heat has to soak into your skin, and that's conduction.

Two large parallel conducting plates carrying opposite charges of equal magnitude are separated by 2.20 cm. Part A If the surfac

Answer:

5308.34 N/C

Explanation:

Given:

Surface density of each plate (σ) = 47.0 nC/m² = 47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2

Separation between the plates (d) = 2.20 cm

We know, from Gauss law for a thin sheet of plate that, the electric field at a point near the sheet of surface density 'σ' is given as:

E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

Now, as the plates are oppositely charged, so the electric field in the region between the plates will be in same direction and thus their magnitudes gets added up. Therefore,

E_{between}=E+E=2E=\frac{2\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

Now, plug in  47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2 for 'σ' and 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m for \epsilon_0 and solve for the electric field. This gives,

E_{between}=\frac{47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2}{8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m}\\\\E_{between}= 5308.34\ N/C

Therefore, the electric field between the plates has a magnitude of 5308.34 N/C

leva [86]

Answer:

B ) Ascend using my buddy alternative air source / make an emergency Ascent

Explanation:

From the description it can be seen his buddy is close by of which he can easily use the alternative air source. Also we can see that he is closer to the water surface than his buddy, of which controlled emergency swimming ascent is highly favourable in this condition.
