It is a mechanical wave and cannot travel through a vacuum.
Answer:
Potential
Explanation:
The water in the bathtub has more potential energy than that in the tea cup because it has a greater number of water molecules.
Mass is a parameter that is very instrumental in determining potential energy.
The potential energy of a body is the energy due to the position of that body.
Potential energy = mass x acceleration due gravity x height
Mass is the amount of matter in a substance. Water in the tub will have more mass and contain a greater number of water molecules there in.
Since potential energy is directly proportional to mass, then, it will have a greater amount of potential energy.
Answer: a) r= 4.82 * 10^-4 m ; b) 1420 V
Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to take into account that potential for a sphere respec to V=0 at the infinity, which is given by:
V=k*Q/r where r is the radius of the drop
then we have
r=k*Q/V=9*10^9*38pC/710V= 4.82 * 10^-4 m
Finally if we join two drop to form one with the same radius but with twice charge the resultant potential is:
V= k*2*Q/(r)= 710*2= 1420 V
Answer:
0.667 grams per cm cubed
Explanation:
the formula for density is mass divided by volume
