A small town has decided to forego the use of electrical power and send energy through town via mechanical waves on ropes

They use rope with a mass per length of 1.50 kg/m under 6000 N tension. If they are limited to a wave amplitude of 0.500 m, what must be the frequency of waves necessary to transmit power at the average rate of 2.00 kW?
A)

24.8 Hz

B)

169 Hz

C)

60.0 Hz

D)

2.07 Hz

E)

How do we know whether or not global warming is caused by humans?

A) From computer calculations that "predict" 20th-century temperatures based on natural variations, then on human-caused variations, and then on a mix of natural and human variations; the actual historical measurements then show that only natural variations are important. B) From experiments in which excess carbon is injected into a laboratory-created Earth-like atmosphere, and the resulting temperature is measured. C) From experiments in which a small experimental plot of forest is subjected to excess carbon, and the growth of the trees along with the temperature are then measured. D) From computer calculations that "predict" 20th-century temperatures, based on natural variations, then on human-caused variations, and then on a mix of natural and human variations; the actual historical measurements then show the importance of human variations. E) Actually, scientists have been unable to determine this.
