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.

Two light bulbs are installed in two sockets, the sockets are connected in series, and power is then applied to the combination
Arisa [49]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

<em>If one of the bulbs is removed from the series, the other bulb will not come on at all.</em>

This is because the removal of one of the bulbs would interrupt the flow of current though the entire circuit.

Hence, that the other one will get brighter if one of two bulbs in a circuit is removed from its socket is not true.

what is the relationship between the number of turns of the wire and electrical output of the generator?
xxTIMURxx [149]

The number of turns of wire is directly proportional to voltage.

The higher the number of turns of wire the higher the voltage

Since .

Power (output) of a generator = voltage x current. Therefore the higher the voltage the higher the output of the generator.

So, the higher the number of turns of wire the higher the output of the generator.
