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.

Suppose that you are headed toward a plateau 55 meters high. If the angle of elevation to the top of the plateau is 40degrees​,
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

x=65.55m

Explanation:

Let x be the distance to the shore

From trigonometry properties:

tan(40^{o} )=\frac{55m}{x} \\x=\frac{55m}{tan(40^{o} )} \\x=65.55m

A force vector F1 points due east and has a magnitude of 200 Newtons, A second force F2 is added to F1. The resultant of the two
Andrew [12]
A force vector F1 points due east and has a magnitude of 200 Newtons, A second force F2 is added to F1. The resultant of the two vectors has a magnitude of 400 newtons and points along the due east/west line. Find the magnitude and direction of F2. Note that there are two answers. <span>The given values are
F1 = 200 N</span> F2 =? Total = 400 N

Solution: F1 + F2 = T 200 N + F2 = 400N
F2 = 400 - 200
F2 = 200 N

A ball weighing 2.0 N falls through a distance of 4 m.
Naddik [55]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, a possible question would be to calculate the work done by the ball.

Work done = 8J

Explanation:

Work done by an object is calculated my multiplying the force by the distance.

The weight of this ball is 2.0N, which also represents the force exerted by the ball. The ball travels through a distance of 4m

Hence, work done = F × d

Work done = 2N × 4m

Work done = 8Nm or 8J

4. What's the voltage drop if V, = 56 V, V2 = 35 V, and V3 = 3 V
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The correct option is A. 18 V

Therefore,

V_{1}=18\ V

Explanation:

Given:

Total Voltage,

V = 56 V,

Voltage drop

V_{2}=35\ V

V_{3}=3\ V

To Find:

V_{1}=? (Assumed ,as it is not given clearly in the question)

Solution:

So in series combination total Voltage is given as

V=V_{1}+V_{2}+V_{3}

Substituting the values we get

56=V_{1}+35+3\\\\V_{1}=56-38=18\ V

Therefore,

V_{1}=18\ V
