<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>A mechanical wave transfers energy through matter</em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • A<em><u> wave is a transmission of a disturbance </u></em>from one point to another. Wave<u><em> involves transmission of energy from one point to another through a materials medium.</em></u>
  • Waves may require or may nor require a material medium for transmission. Those wave that do not require material medium for transmission are electromagnetic waves while <em><u>those that require material medium are called mechanical waves.</u></em>
  • <u><em>Mechanical waves</em></u> such as sound wave transfers energy from one point which is the wave source to another point through a material medium.

When astronomers look at distant galaxies, what sort of motion do they see?
arlik [135]
Hello! You can call me Emac or Eric.

I understand your problem, that question is pretty hard. But I found some information that I think you should read. This can get your problem done quickly.

Please hit that thank you button if that helped, I don’t want thank you’s I just want to know that this helped.

Please reply if this doesn’t help, I will try my best to gather more information or a answer.

Here is some good information that could help you out a lot!


Let’s begin by exploring some techniques astronomers use to study how galaxies are born and change over cosmic time. Suppose you wanted to understand how adult humans got to be the way they are. If you were very dedicated and patient, you could actually observe a sample of babies from birth, following them through childhood, adolescence, and into adulthood, and making basic measurements such as their heights, weights, and the proportional sizes of different parts of their bodies to understand how they change over time.

Unfortunately, we have no such possibility for understanding how galaxies grow and change over time: in a human lifetime—or even over the entire history of human civilization—individual galaxies change hardly at all. We need other tools than just patiently observing single galaxies in order to study and understand those long, slow changes.

We do, however, have one remarkable asset in studying galactic evolution. As we have seen, the universe itself is a kind of time machine that permits us to observe remote galaxies as they were long ago. For the closest galaxies, like the Andromeda galaxy, the time the light takes to reach us is on the order of a few hundred thousand to a few million years. Typically not much changes over times that short—individual stars in the galaxy may be born or die, but the overall structure and appearance of the galaxy will remain the same. But we have observed galaxies so far away that we are seeing them as they were when the light left them more than 10 billion years ago.


That is some information, I do have more if you need some! Thanks!

Have a great rest of your day/night! :)

What is the energy of the photon emitted when an electron in a mercury atom drops from energy level f to energy level b?
xeze [42]

The energy of the photon emitted when an electron in a mercury atom drops from energy level f to energy level b is 3.06 eV.

<h3>Change in energy level of the electron</h3>

When photons jump from a higher energy level to a lower level, they emit or radiate energy.

The change in energy level of the electrons is calculated as follows;

ΔE = Eb - Ef

ΔE = -2.68 eV - (-5.74 eV)

ΔE = 3.06 eV

Thus, the energy of the photon emitted when an electron in a mercury atom drops from energy level f to energy level b is 3.06 eV.

What type of energy is involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks?
ziro4ka [17]
<span>First question: The type of energy involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks is: option d. Kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy associated with motion. A body (in this case the water) that moves has an energy associated with its motion that is proportional to the speed (exactly to the square of the speed). When the water collides with the banks it is the kinetic energy of the river that erodes it Second question: the answer is the option d. As gravity pulls water down a slope potential energy changes to knietic energy. This is the, water loses altitude and gains velocity. The potential energy. which is proportional to the height, decreases and the kinetic energy, which is proportional to the square of the speed, increases.</span>

When a roller coaster gets to the bottom of a descent, describe the energy transfers and changes to energy stores that happen if
Feliz [49]

Answer:

its B

Explanation:

It's B & A at the same time because A. a roller coaster uses brakes to slow down and stop. B is the most reasonable answer. Because all roller coasters go up and over a second time over the hill, but they also slow down. But go with B.
