Physics
1 answer:
Ronch [10]3 years ago
6 0

Correct matching:


1 acceleration --> rate of change in velocity, which is the change in velocity divided by the change in time

2. speed --> the rate at which an object changes position when traveling in a certain direction

4. gravity --> force of attraction between all masses in the universe

5. Inertia --> an object´s resistance to a change in motion

3. friction --> force of resistance acting between objects in contact and tending to dampen their motion

6. velocity --> the rate at which an object changes position

What types of changes in motion cause acceleration?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Change in velocity and direction over a specific period of time.

Explanation:

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate the acceleration of an object.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

Acceleration (a) = \frac{final \; velocity  -  initial \; velocity}{time}

a = \frac{v  -  u}{t}

Where,

a is acceleration measured in ms^{-2}

v and u is final and initial velocity respectively, measured in ms^{-1}

t is time measured in seconds.

Hence, the types of changes in motion that cause acceleration is a change in velocity and direction over a specific period of time.

What does it mean to say that a wave is a cyclic, or periodic, disturbance
Ivenika [448]

Wave is a disturbance or energy that propagate through medium from one point to other point

So basically it is a flowing energy that flows into the medium and hence medium particles start oscillating about their mean position to and fro.

This motion of medium particles or this to and fro motion is about their mean position and this will always be cyclic or periodic motion

This means the disturbance or energy continuously flow through the medium such that it will change the position of medium particle and this will be cyclic in order

For an example

y = A sin(\omega t + kx + \phi)

so here above equation of wave is a travelling wave in which displacement of medium particle from its mean position is given by "y"

Now we can see that this disturbance depends upon the sine function and it will repeat its same position after every 2 pi time interval as it is cyclic function for this value

Due to this phenomenon of repeatation of its same position we can say that it is disturbance of wave is cyclic.
