<h2>Answer: medium  </h2><h2 />

The propagation velocity of a wave depends on the medium in which it propagates.  

In addition, it depends on the type of wave, for example a mechanical or electromagnetic wave.  

In any case, the velocity of a wave is generally related to the value of the wavelength and the period, and can be expressed mathematically through the following formula:  

v=\frac{\lambda}{T}

where v is the velocity of the wave, \lambda is the wavelength and T is the period.

Therefore:

<h2>The propagation velocity of a wave depends on the <u>medium</u></h2>

Answer:

1) The temperature will be closer to water

2) T = 68.239°C

3) T = 72.142°C

4) T = 69.266 °C

Explanation:

1)

The temperature will be closer to water because  the heat capacity of water > heat capacity of coffee.

2)

137(1.089)(T - 23.8) = 137(4.186)(79.8 - T)

⇒(1.089)(T - 23.8) = (4.186)(79.8 - T)

⇒1.089 T - 25.9182 = 334.0428 - 4.186 T

⇒1.089 T +  4.186 T = 334.0428 + 25.9182

⇒5.275 T = 359.961

⇒ T = 68.239°C

3)

137(1.089)(T - 23.8) = 225(4.186)(79.8 - T)

⇒(149.193)(T - 23.8) = (941.85)(79.8 - T)

⇒149.193 T - 3550.7934 = 75159.63 - 941.85 T

⇒149.193 T +  941.85 T = 75159.63  + 3550.7934

⇒1091.043 T = 78710.4234

⇒ T = 72.142°C

4)

137(1.089)(T - 23.8) + 11.7(4.186)(T - 5.2)= 225(4.186)(79.8 - T)

⇒(149.193)(T - 23.8) + 48.9762(T - 5.2) = (941.85)(79.8 - T)

⇒149.193 T - 3550.7934  + 48.9762 T - 254.67624= 75159.63 - 941.85 T

⇒149.193 T +  941.85 T + 48.9762 T = 75159.63  + 3550.7934 + 254.67624

⇒1091.043 T + 48.9762 T = 78710.4234 + 254.67624

⇒1140.0192 T = 78965.09964

⇒ T = 69.266 °C

an ice skater applies a horizontal force to a 20.-kilogram block on frictionless, level ice, causing the block to accelerate uni
stiv31 [10]
The only vertical forces are weight and normal force, and they balance since the surface is horizontal. The horizontal forces are the applied force (uppercase F) in the direction the block slides and the frictional force (lowercase f) in the opposite direction.

Apply Newton's 2nd Law in the horizontal direction:
ΣF = ma
F - f = ma
where f = µmg

F - µmg = ma
F = m(a +µg)
F = (20 kg)(1.4 m/s² + 0.28(9.8 m/s²)

F = 83 N

Consider horizontal parallel plates with a fixed potential difference. The upper plate has a voltage difference of 30 V with the
BlackZzzverrR [31]

relation between potential difference and electric field is given as

E . d = \Delta V

so here we know that

d = 3 cm

\Delta V = 30 V

E \times 0.03 = 30

E = 1000 N/C

So now when plates are separated to 4 cm distance carefully

the potential difference between them will change but the electric field between them will remain constant

So at distance of 4 cm also the electric field will be E = 1000 N/C

Paha777 [63]
The energy of a compressed (or stretched) spring is given by

E= \frac{1}{2} k x^{2}

This gives
