How is amplitude related to loudness

Answers

The loudness of a sound is linked to the size of the vibration which produces it. A big vibration makes a louder sound. Scientists use the word 'amplitude' for the size of waves. For waves on water, it is easy to measure the amplitude.

What would happen if a rocket ran out of fuel in the Earth's atmosphere?

Answers

It would do exactly what a rock or a frisbee does when you toss it.

After the engines cut off, it couldn't get any more energy from
anywhere, and after that, as it pushed air aside to get through,
and had air molecules scraping against it, those would slowly
rob kinetic energy from it.  Sooner or later it would run out of
kinetic energy, start falling, and it would eventually make either
a big 'SPLOOSH' or else a big 'CRUNCH', depending on exactly
where it returned to Earth's surface.
The rocket would fall back down to the surface of earth because there would be nothing propelling it upwards.

What variables affect the acceleration of an object and in what manner do they affect the acceleration?

Answers

Acceleration, in physics, is the rate of change of velocity of an object. An object's acceleration is the net result of any and all forces acting on the object, as described by Newton's Second Law.

How can resistance be useful and where can they be useful?

Answers

-- Resistance can be useful among the population of a repressive government.
Although it can be dangerous for those who resist, it can also exert pressure
against the regime to alter its repressive practices.

-- Resistance can also be useful in electronic circuits. "Lumped" components with
known numerical values of resistance are used to divide voltage, limit current, and
dissipate controlled amounts of electrical energy.
