Answer:

<u>Compression - "</u>Compression is a process in which the actual space covered by any sort of entity is reduced and the values of the given parameters are lowered."

Explanation:

<u>Definition with respect to Stress and strain-</u> "The change in actual length,L to a new length,ΔL due to applied stress is called as compression".

<u>Definition with respect to longitudinal wave-</u> "The region of the wave where the particles present are more close to each other is called as compression".

Answer:

The answer that I found is.....

<h3><u><em>Compression. A compression is a region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are closest together. Rarefaction. A rarefaction is a region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are furthest apart.</em></u></h3>

A wheel, starting from rest, rotates with a constant angular acceleration of 2.80 rad/s2. During a certain 5.00 s interval, it t
igomit [66]

Answer:

a) time t1 = 2.14s

b) initial angular speed w1 = 6 rad/s

Explanation:

Given that;

Initial Angular velocity = w1

Angular distance = s = 65 rad

time = t = 5 s

Angular acceleration a = 2.80 rad/s^2

Using the equation of motion;

s = w1t + (at^2)/2

w1 = (s-0.5(at^2))/t

Substituting the values;

w1 = (65 - (0.5×2.8×5^2))/5

w1 = 6rad/s

Time to reach w1 from rest;

w1 = at1

t1 = w1/a = 6/2.8 = 2.14s

a) time t1 = 2.14s

b) initial angular speed w1 = 6 rad/s

How far from the surface of Earth is the magnitude of Earth's gravitational field equal to 7.86 N/kg?
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

7.48 x 10⁵ m

Explanation:

g = 7.86 N/kg

M = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg, R = 6.37 x 10⁶ m.

Find height h

g = GM/(R + h)²

(R + h)² = GM/g = 6.67 x 10⁺¹¹ x 5.97 x 10²⁴ /7.86 = 5.066 x 10¹³

R + h = 7.12 x 10⁶ m

so

h =  7.12 x 10⁶ - 6.37 x 10⁶ = 7.48 x 10⁵ m

What is the magnitude of the acceleration of a speck of clay on the edge of a potter's wheel turning at 45 rpm (revolutions per
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

a_{cp}=7.77m/s^2

Explanation:

The equation for centripetal acceleration is a_{cp}=\frac{v^2}{r}.

We know the wheel turns at 45 rpm, which means 0.75 revolutions per second (dividing by 60), so our frequency is f=0.75Hz, which is the inverse of the period T.

Our velocity is the relation between the distance traveled and the time taken, so is the relation between the circumference C=2\pi r and the period T, then we have:

v=\frac{C}{T}=2\pi r f

Putting all together:

a_{cp}=\frac{(2\pi r f)^2}{r}=4 \pi^2f^2r=4 \pi^2(0.75Hz)^2(0.35m)=7.77m/s^2
