A mechanical wave<span> is a </span>wave<span> that is an oscillation of </span>matter<span>, and therefore transfers energy through a </span>medium.[1]<span> While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the </span>medium of transmission<span>—the material—is limited. Therefore, oscillating material does not move far from its initial equilibrium position. Mechanical waves transport energy. This energy propagates in the same direction as the wave. Any kind of wave (mechanical or electromagnetic) has a certain energy. Mechanical waves can be produced only in media which possess elasticity and inertia.</span>
Answer:
a. True - Joules is the unit measure for energy.
b. False - Potential energy is associated with position
c. False - Kinetic energy is associated with movement.
d. False - It's climbing, which means it also has kinetic energy.
Answer:
Explanation:
The frequency is 16.0 Hz. That means that 16 of these waves can pass a single point in 1 second. We are given frequency and wavelength. The equation that relates them is
where f is frequency, v is velocity, and λ is wavelength. Putting all this together:
and solving for velocity,
v = 16.0(97.5) so
v = 1560 m/s. This wave can travel 1560 meters in a single second!!! Now that we know this velocity, we can use it in a proportion to find our unknown, which is how long, t, it will take to hear this sound 11000m away. (11 km is 11000m):
and cross multiply to get
1560t = 11000 so
t = 7.1 seconds
The answer is A because at a young age children will not understand and they need to learn at the appropriate level
