Answer: Mechanical waves carry energy through a medium; electromagnetic waves carry energy through media and space.

Explanation:

<u>The waves which require medium to travel are known as mechanical waves. </u>The waves carry energy forward by compression and rarefaction that is by changing density /pressure of medium particles.

<u>Electromagnetic waves can transfer energy through space as well as medium. </u>In an electromagnetic wave, electric field generates magnetic field and magnetic field generates electric field. Electric field and magnetic field are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of motion.

Who clarified the photoelectric effect?
sergiy2304 [10]
When visible light, X rays, gamma rays, or other forms of electromagnetic radiation are shined on certain kinds of matter, electrons are ejected. That phenomenon is known as the photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect was discovered by German physicist Heinrich Hertz (1857–1894) in 1887. You can imagine the effect as follows: Suppose that a metal plate is attached by two wires to a galvanometer. (A galvanometer is an instrument for measuring the flow of electric current.) If light of the correct color is shined on the metal plate, the galvanometer may register a current. That reading indicates that electrons have been ejected from the metal plate. Those electrons then flow through the external wires and the galvanometer. HOPE THIS HELPED

A ball is thrown up at a speed of 20 m/s.
ioda

Given:

(Initial velocity)u=20 m/s

At the maximum height the final velocity of the ball is 0.

Also since it is a free falling object the acceleration acting on the ball is due to gravity g.

Thus a=- 9.8 m/s^2

Now consider the equation

v^2-u^2= 2as

Where v is the final velocity which is measured in m/s

Where u is the initial velocity which is measured in m/s

a is the acceleration due to gravity measured in m/s^2

s is the displacement of the ball in this case it is the maximum height attained by the ball which is measured in m.

Substituting the given values in the above formula we get

0-(20x20)= 2 x- 9.8 x s

s= 400/19.6= 20.41m

Thus the maximum height attained is 20.41 m by the ball

Jaden has a mass of 45 kilograms on Earth. Jupiter has more gravity than the Earth. On Jupiter, Jaden's mass will be O more than
Dovator [93]

Answer:

m = 45 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of Jadan, m = 45 kg on Earth

Jupiter has more gravity than the Earth.

Mass of an object is the amount of matter contained inside an object. We need to tell about the mass of Jaden on Jupiter. The mass of the object remains same everywhere.It does not change in any of the location.

Hence, Jaden's mass will be 45 kg on Jupiter.

F a forklift raises a 76-kg load a distance of 2.5 m, about how much work has it done?
sleet_krkn [62]

W= FxD. Since the weight is not put into force you’re going to convert it by multiplying it by 9.8 (gravity). 76kg x 9.8 = 7448. Then multiply that by the distance (2.5). Your answer is 1862.
