<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<u>Mechanical waves; </u>

  • sound waves
  • waves in a wheat field
  • water waves

<u> Electromagnetic waves</u>

  • Radio waves
  • Ultraviolet
<h3><u> Explanation;</u></h3>
  • A wave is a transmission of a disturbance from one place, the source to another.
  • Waves can be classified as mechanical waves or electromagnetic waves depending on the requirement of a material medium.
  • <em><u>Mechanical waves </u></em><em><u>are those waves that require a material medium for transmission, they include, sound waves, water waves, etc. The transmission of these waves is by vibration of particles in the medium.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Electromagnetic waves</u></em><em><u> are those waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.They include, radio waves, microwaves, and all the waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.</u></em>

Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, is 2.6 parsecs (8.6 light-years) from Earth, giving it a parallax of 0.379 arcseconds. An
Vikentia [17]

Answer: Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, is 2.6 parsecs (8.6 light-years) from Earth, giving it a parallax of 0.379 arcseconds. Another bright star, Regulus, has a parallax of 0.042 arcseconds. Then, the distance in parsecs will be,23.46.

Explanation: To find the answer, we have to know more about the relation between the distance in parsecs and the parallax.

<h3>What is the relation between the distance in parsecs and the parallax?</h3>
  • Let's consider a star in the sky, is d parsec distance from the earth, and which has some parallax of P amount.
  • Then, the equation connecting parallax and the distance in parsec can be written as,

                                     d=\frac{1}{P}

  • We can say that,

                                    dP=constant.\\thus,\\d_1P_1=d_2P_2

<h3>How to solve the problem?</h3>
  • We have given that,

                                     d_1=2.6 parsecs.\\P_1=0.379arcseconds.\\P_2=0.042 arcseconds.\\d_2=?

  • Thus, we can find the distance in parsecs as,

                                     d_2=\frac{d_1P_1}{P_2} =23.46 parsecs

Thus, we can conclude that, the distance in parsecs will be, 23.46.

A 20.00 kg lead sphere is hanging from a hook by a thin, massless wire 2.80 m long and is free to swing in a complete circle. Tr
Tema [17]

The minimum initial speed of the dart so that the combination makes a complete circular loop after the collision is 58.5 m/s.

<h3>Minimum speed for the object not fall out of the circle</h3>

The minimum speed if given by tension in the wire;

T + mg = ma

T + mg = m(v²)/R

tension must be zero for the object not fall

0 + mg = mv²/R

v = √(Rg)

<h3>Final speed of the two mass after collision</h3>

Use the principle of conservation of energy

K.Ef  = K.Ei + P.E

¹/₂mvf² = ¹/₂mv² + mg(2R)

¹/₂vf² = ¹/₂v² + g(2R)

¹/₂vf² = ¹/₂(Rg) + g(2R)

vf² = Rg + 4Rg

vf² = 5Rg

vf = √(5Rg)

vf = √(5 x 2.8 x 9.8)

vf = 11.7 m/s

<h3>Initial speed of the dart</h3>

Apply principle of conservation of linear momentum for inelastic collision;

5v = vf(20 + 5)

5v = 11.7(25)

5v = 292.5

v = 58.5 m/s

If gravity did not affect the pain of a horizontally thrown ball the ball would
Drupady [299]

If gravity had no effect on a ball after you threw it ... and there also
were no air to slow it down ... then the ball would continue traveling
in a straight line, in whatever direction you threw it. 

That's the heart and soul of Newton's laws of motion ... any object
keeps moving at the same speed, and in a straight line in the same
direction, until a force acts on it to change its speed or direction.\

If you threw the ball horizontally, then it would keep moving in the
same direction you threw it.  But don't forget:  The Earth is not flat.
The Earth is a sphere.  So, as the ball kept going farther and farther
in the same straight line, the Earth would curve away from it, and it
would look like the ball is getting farther and farther from the ground.
