The melting of polar ice is one effect of the greenhouse effect, or also global warming.
The greenhouse effect, as defined by Merriam-Webster, is "the <span>warming of the surface and lower atmosphere of a planet (as Earth or Venus) that is caused by conversion of solar radiation into heat in a process involving selective transmission of short wave solar radiation by the atmosphere, its absorption by the planet's surface, and reradiation as infrared which is absorbed and partly reradiated back to the surface by atmospheric gases".
In short, "</span>the warming of the surface and lower atmosphere of a planet".
The total work <em>W</em> done by the spring on the object as it pushes the object from 6 cm from equilibrium to 1.9 cm from equilibrium is
<em>W</em> = 1/2 (19.3 N/m) ((0.060 m)² - (0.019 m)²) ≈ 0.031 J
That is,
• the spring would perform 1/2 (19.3 N/m) (0.060 m)² ≈ 0.035 J by pushing the object from the 6 cm position to the equilibrium point
• the spring would perform 1/2 (19.3 N/m) (0.019 m)² ≈ 0.0035 J by pushing the object from the 1.9 cm position to equilbrium
so the work done in pushing the object from the 6 cm position to the 1.9 cm position is the difference between these.
By the work-energy theorem,
<em>W</em> = ∆<em>K</em> = <em>K</em>
where <em>K</em> is the kinetic energy of the object at the 1.9 cm position. Initial kinetic energy is zero because the object starts at rest. So
<em>W</em> = 1/2 <em>mv</em> ²
where <em>m</em> is the mass of the object and <em>v</em> is the speed you want to find. Solving for <em>v</em>, you get
<em>v</em> = √(2<em>W</em>/<em>m</em>) ≈ 0.46 m/s
Answer: Vibrating
Explanation:
Sound is produced when an object vibrates. The sound vibrations cause waves of pressure that travel through a medium, such as air, water, wood or metal. Sound is a form of mechanical energy.
