Why are “input” and “output” good words to use when discussing systems?

Afisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water. it takes a time of 2.20 s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.670 m . the fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 5.80 m apart. (a) how much is the wavelength? (b) find the period of the wave. (c) how fast are the waves traveling? (d) what is the amplitude a of each wave?

The electric potential v is constant everywhere within a certain region of space. which statement below is true? the choices are: the electric field is also constant (but not zero) within the region. a charged particle placed within the region will experience an electric force. the electric field is zero everywhere within the region. the electric field varies from place to place within the region.

Chameleons catch insects with their tongues, which they can rapidly extend to great lengths. in a typical strike, the chameleon's tongue accelerates at a remarkable 220 m/s2 for 20 ms, then travels at constant speed for another 30 ms.
