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>

What is the resistance (R) when voltage is 179V and current is 5 Amps?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

R = 35.8 Ω

Explanation:

Recall Ohm's Law:

V = I * R

then R = V / I

in our case:

R = 179 V / 5 A = 35.8 Ω

What is its maximum altitude above the ground? The answer is the maximum height above the ground
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Maximum altitude above the ground = 1,540,224 m = 1540.2 km

Explanation:

Using the equations of motion

u = initial velocity of the projectile = 5.5 km/s = 5500 m/s

v = final velocity of the projectile at maximum height reached = 0 m/s

g = acceleration due to gravity = (GM/R²) (from the gravitational law)

g = (6.674 × 10⁻¹¹ × 5.97 × 10²⁴)/(6370000²)

g = -9.82 m/s² (minus because of the direction in which it is directed)

y = vertical distance covered by the projectile = ?

v² = u² + 2gy

0² = 5500² + 2(-9.82)(y)

19.64y = 5500²

y = 1,540,224 m = 1540.2 km

Hope this Helps!!!

Why is cheese only strechy when its hot not when its cold (i spelt stretchy wrong but i dont want to change it cuz that would ta
IgorC [24]
That is a really good question, cheese is stretchy when it is hot is because when you heat it up, it liquefies which makes it stretch. it doesn't stretch when it is cold because it is a solid and solids usually do not stretch.

A bird flying straight upward at 5 m/s drops a berry when it is 300 m above the ground. How fast is the berry going when it hits
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

v=77.62 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

h= - 300 m

speed of the bird ,u= 5 m/s

Lets take Speed of the berry when it hit the ground = v m/s

we know that ,if object is moving upward

v² = u² - 2 g h

u=Initial speed

v=Final speed

h=Height

Now by putting the values

v² = u² - 2 g h

v² = 5² - 2 x 10 x (-300)                ( take g = 10 m/s²)

v² =25 + 20 x 300

v² ==25 + 6000

v² =6025

v=77.62 m/s

Therefore the final speed of the berry will be 77.62 m/s.
