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.

If an object force of 50 N is used to move an object a distance of 20 m, what distance must the object be moved if the input for

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

$\ d_{out} = 100 \ m.$

Explanation:

Given data:

$F_{in} = 50 \ \rm N$

$F_{out} = 10 \ \rm N$

$d_{in} = 20 \ m$

Let the distance traveled by the object in the second case be $d_{out}.$

In the given problem, work done by the forces are same in both the cases.

Thus,

$W_{in} = W_{out}$

$F_{in}.d_{in} = F_{out}.d_{out}$

$\Rightarrow \ d_{out} = \frac{F_{in}.d_{in}}{F_{out}}$

$\ d_{out} = \frac{50 \times 20}{10}$

$\ d_{out} = 100 \ m.$
