Answers that apply include

  • Energy is transferred through vibrating particles
  • An ocean wave moving through water is an example of a mechanical wave
  • A longitudinal wave is a type of mechanical wave.
  • A transverse wave is a type of mechanical wave

Mechanical waves can't pass through vacuum like electromagnetic waves because t depends on the transfer of energy between particles of matter (matter that has inertia and elasticity). This energy propagates in the same direction as the wave. Another example of mechanical energy is sound. In addition to longitudinal and transverse waves, another type of mechanical wave is surface waves.

Problem: Hooke's law states that the force on a spring varies directly with the distance that it is stretched. If a spring has a
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Restoring force of the spring is 50 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring constant of the spring, k = 100 N/m

Stretching in the spring, x = 0.5 m

We need to find the restoring force of the spring. It can be calculated using Hooke's law as "the force on a spring varies directly with the distance that it is stretched".

F=kx

F=100\ N/m\times 0.5\ m

F = 50 N

So, the restoring force of the spring is 50 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A car traveling in a straight line has a velocity of 6m/s at some instant. After 6.32s its velocity is 13.2m/s . What is the ave
NeX [460]
Average acceleration  =  (change in speed) / (time for the change) .

Average acceleration  =  (13.2 - 6) / (6.32) = 7.2 / 6.32 = about  <em>1.139... m/s²</em> .

I. What is the initial velocity of the car?
qaws [65]

Answer:

I. 0 m/s

II. 20 m/s

III. Part BC

Explanation:

I. Determination of the initial velocity.

From the diagram given above,

The motion of the car starts from the origin. This implies that the car start from rest and as such, the initial velocity of the car is 0 m/s

II. Determination of the maximum velocity attained.

From the diagram given above, we can see clearly that the maximum velocity is 20 m/s.

III. Determination of the part of the graph that represents zero acceleration.

It important that we know the meaning of zero acceleration.

Zero acceleration simply means the car is not accelerating. This can only be true when the car is moving with a constant velocity.

From the graph given above, the car has a constant velocity between B and C.

Therefore, part BC illustrates zero acceleration.

What must happen to the temperature of a material for thermal expansion to occur.
Aloiza [94]
In most cases the temperature must increase for thermal expansion to occur. Most substances expand as temperature increases because the atoms or molecules vibrate faster as temperature increases and experience greater separation.
