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 largest. b. 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. c. 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. 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.

Two charged particles, q1 and q2, are located on the x-axis, with q1 at the origin and q2 initially at x1 = 12.2 mm. in this configuration, q1 exerts a repulsive force of 2.62 µn on q2. particle q2 is then moved to x2 = 18.0 mm. what is the force (magnitude and direction) that q2 exerts on q1 at this new location? (give the magnitude in µn.)
