When a wave is acted upon by an external damping force what happens to the energy of the wave

Answer:

A-the energy of the wave decreases gradually

Explanation:

when a wave is acted upon by an external damping force the energy of the wave decreases gradually.

The energy degrades into the form of heat which is considered to be of less value and use. The reason is because it disperses and spreads more widely.

So therefore it end up as heat with a little sound but that is close to none because that too disperses into heat i.e. decreased form of energy.

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The maximum temperature rise = 0.047 °C

Explanation:

Potential Energy, P = mgh

Energy transfered, Q=mcΔT

Potential energy  = Energy transfered

mgh = mcΔT

gh = cΔT

ΔT = gh/c

ΔT = (9.81 * 20) / 4186

ΔT = 0.047 °C

atroni [7]

Answer:

    K = m g (A - A2)

Explanation:

In a block spring system the total energy is the sum of the potential energy plus the kinetic energy, for maximum elongation all the energy is potential

         Em = U₀ = m g A

For when the system is at an ele

Elongation A2 less than A, energy has two parts

        Em = K + U₂

       K = Em –U₂

We substitute

     K = m g A - m gA2

    K = m g (A - A2)
