Answer:
Amplitude.
Explanation:
A wave can be defined as a disturbance in a medium that progressively transports energy from a source location to another location without the transportation of matter.
In Science, there are two (2) types of wave and these include;
I. Electromagnetic waves: it doesn't require a medium for its propagation and as such can travel through an empty space or vacuum. An example of an electromagnetic wave is light.
II. Mechanical waves: it requires a medium for its propagation and as such can't travel through an empty space or vacuum. An example of a mechanical wave is sound.
An amplitude can be defined as a waveform that's measured from the center line (its origin or equilibrium position) to the bottom of a trough or top of a crest.
Hence, an amplitude is a word that describes the maximum displacement a point moves from its rest position when a wave passes.
On a graph, the vertical axis (y-axis) is the amplitude of a waveform and this simply means that, it's measured vertically.
Mathematically, the amplitude of a wave is given by the formula;
x = Asin(ωt + ϕ)
Where;
x is displacement of the wave measured in meters.
A is the amplitude.
ω is the angular frequency measured in rad/s.
t is the time period measured in seconds.
ϕ is the phase angle.
Answer:
An object decreases in size due to the collision of materials. An object increases in size due to the addition of materials. Gas particles are formed from solar nebula materials.
<h2>
Answer: 0.17</h2>
Explanation:
The Stefan-Boltzmann law establishes that a black body (an ideal body that absorbs or emits all the radiation that incides on it) "emits thermal radiation with a total hemispheric emissive power proportional to the fourth power of its temperature":
(1)
Where:
is the energy radiated by a blackbody radiator per second, per unit area (in Watts). Knowing
is the Stefan-Boltzmann's constant.
is the Surface area of the body
is the effective temperature of the body (its surface absolute temperature) in Kelvin.
However, there is no ideal black body (ideal radiator) although the radiation of stars like our Sun is quite close. So, in the case of this body, we will use the Stefan-Boltzmann law for real radiator bodies:
(2)
Where is the body's emissivity
(the value we want to find)
Isolating from (2):
(3)
Solving:
(4)
Finally:
(5) This is the body's emissivity
Umm... I think I saw this question somewhere else answered.... You should look for it.
