Answer:

Option b. the wave s energy passes from particle to particle.

Explanation:

A wave is an propagation of energy along a medium. Waves need a medium in order for them to travel from one point or another. A wave is a particulate transfer of motion from one point to another. A very good example of the need of a medium is regarding sound. Sound cannot travel through a vacuum. This is because there are no air molecules to transfer the energy of the sound propagation. Hence no sound travels through the vacuum. The particle to particle interaction and vibration results in the transfer of energy in a wave propagation.

The correct answer to the question is: A) miles/hour and B) metre/ second.

EXPLANATION:

Before answering this question, first we have to understand speed.

The speed of a body is defined as the rate of distance travelled or the distance travelled by a body per unit time.

Hence, it is a derived quantity which is obtained from distance and time.

The unit of distance can be metre, miles, and the unit of time can be second, minutes or hour.

As speed is the distance covered per unit time, the perfect units will be miles/hour and metre/second.

Hence, the correct options are first and second.

An object is released from rest and falls a distance h during the first second of time. How far will it fall during the next sec
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

E. 3h

Explanation:

We know that

u = 0 m/s.

velocity after t = 1s

v = u+gt = 0+9.81 x 1s= 9.81 m/s

distance covered in 1st sec

= =>> ut+0.5 x g x t²

=>>0 + 0.5x 9.81 x 1 = 4.90m

Let 4.90 be h

distance travelled in 2nd second will now be used

So velocity after t = 1s

=>>1 x t+ 0.5 x g x t²

=>9.81x 1 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 1 = 3 x 4.90

So since h= 4.90

Then the ans is 3x h = 3h
