Answer:
Starting from the beginning.
There is a radio signal that is received by the radio.
The radio interprets the signal and produces a current in response to it.
That current goes to a membrane that oscillates producing sound, the oscillation of the membrane is the first mechanical energy event here.
These oscillations can travel in material mediums, for example, the air. Then there is a production of waves (soundwaves) that travel in the air (second event).
Those waves now hit the wall that separates you and your neighbor, as the wall is made of a material, the soundwaves can travel through it, but they will be dispersed (a part of the waves rebounds on the wall, and another part is dissipated as the wave travels through the wall), there is also a transmitted part of the wave, that is now in your house. (this change of medium will be the third event). Now only the lower frequencies survive, this is why the sound is "muffled".
Those remaining frequencies now travel in your house, and when they reach your ear, your ear sends a signal to your brain and your brain interprets them as sound. The wave interacting with your ear will be the fourth and last mechanical energy event.
The cat has two directions of motions:
The horizontal motion = Dx = 2.2 m
The vertical motion = Dy = -1.3 m (negative sign indicates that the cat is falling)
a = 9.8 m/sec^2
Vy = zero (since you are not moving up)
From the laws of motion:
<span>Dy = Vyt + 0.5ayt^2
</span>-1.3 = 0(t) + 0.5(-9.8)t^2
<span>t = 0.52s
</span>
Then, again using the laws of motion (but for the horizontal direction this time)
Dx = Vxt
<span>2.2 = Vx0.52 </span>
<span>Vx = 2.2/0.52 </span>
<span>= 4.23 m/s
</span>
<span>Therefore the cat's speed when it slid off the table is 4.23 m/s horizontally.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
400 W = 400 J/s
300000 J / 400 J/s = 750 s or 12.5 minutes
Answer:
Fault lines
Explanation:
Earthquakes are most likely to occur near or on fault lines. A great example of this is the ring of fire, a gigantic fault line that gives catastrophic earthquakes.
Mars.
Water exists as small amounts of ice on Mars and as water vapor. It is suspected that Mars used to have flowing water on it, but that there is none left now.
