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 forklift raises a 72-kg crate onto a shelf 3.6 meters above the floor. How much gravitational potential energy does the crate
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

<h2>2540.16 J</h2>

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

GPE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

GPE = 72 × 9.8 × 3.6 = 2540.16

We have the final answer as

<h3>2540.16 J</h3>

Hope this helps you
