Answer:
light is an example of a wave that is not mechanical .
it is different as it does not need material medium for its propagation
Answer:
statement - 'The work done by friction is equal to the sum of the work done by the gravity and the initial push' is correct.
Explanation:
The statement ''The work done by friction is equal to the sum of the work done by the gravity and the initial push" is correct.
The above statement is correct because, the initial push will tend to slide down the block thus the work done by the initial push will be in the downward direction. Also, the gravity always acts in the downward direction. thus, the work done done by the gravity will also be in the downward direction
here, the downward direction signifies the downward motion parallel to the inclined plane.
Now we know that the work done by the friction is against the direction of motion. Thus, the friction force will tend to move the block up parallel to the inclined plane.
Hence, for the block to stop sliding the the above statement should be true.
Explanation:
A) Use Hooke's law to find the spring constant.
F = kx
40 N = k (0.4 m)
k = 100 N/m
B) Period of a spring-mass system is:
T = 2π √(m / k)
T = 2π √(2.6 kg / 100 N/m)
T = 1 s
Frequency is the inverse of period.
f = 1 / T
f = 1 Hz
