In 1940, the tacoma narrows bridge across the puget sound collapsed. the bridge was a suspension bridge. the wind blowing through the narrows matched the natural frequency of the bridge. this resulted in a large movement of roadway, which eventually caused the bridge to fail. what characteristic of waves caused the bridge to collapse?

absorption, because the bridge absorbed all the energy of the wind
diffraction, because the wind moved around the bridge, which set the bridge into motion
interference, because constructive interference occurred when the wind frequency matched the natural frequency of the bridge
interference, because destructive interference occurred when the wind frequency matched the natural frequency of the bridge

Researchers determine that the biodiversity in a woodland region is declining. they identify two major threats to the region's biodiversity, a method to address each threat, and the expected outcome of each method. this information is shown in the table. a) reforestation would not benefit many species because most forest species live on the ground. b) reforestation would take the longest time to be effective because trees take several years to grow. c) biological augmentation would benefit only a few species because is is typically not very effective. d) biological augmentation would take less time to ve effective because it targets the majority of prey species.
