What is the best description of a mechanical wave?

Physics

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.

The radiations detected by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson
were the original heat from the Big Bang.

Today, we call those waves the "Cosmic Microwave Background".

I'm not sure, but I think those guys were awarded a Nobel Prize in Physics
for that discovery.

A person pushes a refrigerator across a horizontal floor. The mass of the refrigerator is 110 kg, the coefficient of static fric
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of refrigerator, m = 110 kg

coefficient of static friction, μs = 0.85

coefficient of kinetic friction, μk = 0.59

(a) the minimum force required to just start the motion in refrigerator

F = μs x mg

F = 0.85 x 110 x 9.8

F = 916.3 N

(b) The force required to move the refrigerator with constant speed

F' = μk x mg

F' = 0.59 x 110 x 9.8

F' = 636.02 N

(c) Let a be the acceleration.

Net force = Applied force - friction force

F net = 950 - 636.02

F net = 313.98 N

a = F net / mass

a = 313.98 / 110

a = 2.85 m/s²
