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.

The total distance a group of movers move a refrigerator is 22 m. If they complete this task in 15 minutes, their efforts would
lianna [129]

Answer:

Their efforts would be expressed in units of Joules per second

Explanation:

The unit of their efforts can be derived from the formula of power which is given by the product of mass, acceleration and distance (the product is energy with unit joules) divided by time taken to complete the task (unit is seconds)

Therefore, the unit of their efforts would be joules per second

netineya [11]

Answer:

Δu=1300kJ/kg  

Explanation:

Energy at the initial state

p_{1}=200kPa\\t_{1}=300^{o}\\u_{1}=2808.8kJ/kg(tableA-5)

Is saturated vapor at initial pressure we have

p_{2}=200kPa\\x_{2}=1(stat.vapor)\\v_{2}=0.8858m^3/kg(tableA-5)

Process 2-3 is a constant volume process

p_{3}=100kPa\\v_{3}=v_{2}=0.8858m^{3}/kg\\u_{3}=1508.6kJ/kg(tableA-5)

The overall in internal energy

Δu=u₁-u₃

We replace the values in equation

Δu=u₁-u₃

=2808.8kJ/kg-1508.6kJ/kg\\=1300kJ/kg

Δu=1300kJ/kg
