Answer:Work

Explanation:

When a spring is compressed the energy changes from kinetic to potential energy as Energy cannot be destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

This can be best explained with the help of work. Suppose a block with certain kinetic energy comes in contact to the spring its kinetic energy changes to Potential Energy of the spring or we can say that its Kinetic Energy is converted to Potential energy as the block does work on spring.  

Block compresses the spring by changing its length and it requires some work which is equal to change in its Potential Energy of spring.

Mechanical waves move energy through a medium by vibrating particles. Mechanical waves can't move energy through a vacuum because there is no matter inside of a vacuum. The three types of mechanical waves are transverse waves, surface waves, and longitudinal waves.

A solenoid with 3,000.0 turns is 70.0 cm long. If its self-inductance is 25.0 mH, what is its radius? (The value of μ0 is 4π x 1
nevsk [136]

Answer:

A. 2.2*10^-2m

Explanation:

Using

Area = length x L/ uo xN²

So A = 0.7m * 25 x 10^-3H /( 4π x10^-7*

3000²)

A = 17.5*10^-3/ 1.13*10^-5

= 15.5*10^-2m²

Area= π r ²

15.5E-2/3.142 = r²

An athlete swings a ball, connected to the end of a chain, in a horizontal circle. The athlete is able to rotate the ball at the
nydimaria [60]

Answer: a) the greater speed for the ball is getting with the large radius of the circle. b) 1.68* 10 ^3 m/s^2 c) 1.25*10^3 m/s^2

Explanation: In order to solve this problem firstly we have to consider that speed in a of the circular movement is directly the angular rotation multiply the radius of the circle so by this we found that the second radius get large speed.

Secondly to calculate the centripetal acceleration for the ball we have to considerer the relationship given by:

acceleration in a circular movement= ω^2*r

so

a1= (8.44 *2*π)^2*r1=1.68 *10^3 m/s^2

a2= (5.95*2*π)^2*r2=1.25*10^3  m/s^2

When sound is created it travels to the car through a
Rasek [7]

A sound wave is a longitudinal wave caused by vibrations and carried through a substance. The particles of the substance, such as air particles, vibrate back and forth along the path that the sound waves travel. Sound is transmitted through the vibrations and collisions of the particles.

This could maybe help you with your answer.
