Your boss asks you to design a room that can be as soundproof as possible and provides you with three samples of material. the only information on each sample's label is the material's coefficient of absorption. the coefficient of absorption listed on sample a is 30%, on sample b is 47%, and on sample c is 62%. when your boss asks for your choice and the reasoning behind it, what would you tell him?

a. sample a would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest.
b. sample a would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the largest.
c. sample c would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest.
d. sample c would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the largest.

A250-n box is at rest on a frictionless horizotal floor. then a person shoves the box with a non-zero force of magnitude p. which statement best describes the relationship betweeen p and the motion of the box after it was shoved? -the box will not move when p< 250n but otherwise will accelerate at a constant rate that is directly proportional to p - the box will begin moving at a speed that is directly proportional to p, then will gradually slow to a halt -the box will move with constant velocity at a speed that is directly proportional to p -box will accelerate across the floor at a constant rate that is directly proportional to p
