Answer:
A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the medium of transmission—the material—is limited. Therefore, the oscillating material does not move far from its initial equilibrium position.

Answer:
The acceleration is 2 m/s2.
Explanation:
We calculate the acceleration (a), with the data of mass (m) and force (F), through the formula:
F = m x a ---> a= F/m
a = 40 N/20 kg <em> 1N= 1 kg x m/s2</em>
a= 40 kgx m/s2/ 20 kg
<em>a= 2 m/s2</em>
Answer:
Drawing the triangle:
H / x = tan 52.2 = 1.29
H / (4.6 - x) = tan 28.8 = .550
H = 1.29 x
H = .55 * 4.6 - .55 x
1.84 x = 2.53 combining equations
x = 1.38
4.6 - 1.38 = 3.22
Total base of triangle = 1.38 + 3.22 = 4.6
H / x = tan 52,2 = 1.29
H = 1.29 * 1.38 = 1.78 height of triangle
Check:
1.78 / 3.22 = tan 28.9
This agrees with the given value of 28.8
