What is the best description of a mechanical wave?

Physics
1 answer:
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the medium of transmission—the material—is limited. Therefore, the oscillating material does not move far from its initial equilibrium position.

A boy pushes his baby sister in a stroller that has a mass of 45,000 g. What is the acceleration on the stroller if the force is
dlinn [17]

\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Force.

Force = Mass * Acceleration.

here, Mass = 45 kg and Force = 65 N

hence, Acceleration = 65/45

===> Acc. = 1.44 m/s^2

hence the acceleration is 1.44 m/s^2

A microwave oven has 1200 W. If it receives 120 V of potential difference, what is the current in the microwave?
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

10amps

Explanation:

Given data

Power =1200W

Voltage =120V

Required

The current I

From

P=IV

I= P/V

Substitute

I=1200/120

I= 10amps

Hence the current is 10amps

A proton is moving at 425 m/s. (a) How much work must be done on it to stop it? (A proton has a mass of 1.67×10−27 kg.) (b) Assu
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

a)1.51*10^-22joules b) 1.89*10^-7m

Explanation:

Work done to stop the proton = the kinetic energy of the proton = 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2* 1.67*10^-27* 425*425 = 1.51* 10 ^ -22 joules

b) net force acting to stop the proton = 8.01*10^-16

Work done needed to stop the proton = net force acting opposite the motion * distance

Distance covered = need work done/ net force

Distance = 1.51*10^-22/8.01*10^-16= 1.89*10^-7m
