Answer:

water and air

Explanation:

  • A wave is a transmission of a disturbance from one point or the source to another  point.
  • Transmission of a wave occurs through a material medium or a vacuum. Therefore a medium is the material through which a wave travels through.
  • The medium may be in gaseous form, slid form or liquid form. Therefore water and air are example of medium of transmission of a wave.

A man pushes a shopping cart across a level floor. What force resists the effort force? A) gravity B) friction C) the normal for
Kipish [7]

Answer:

B) Friction

Explanation:

Friction is a force that acts when an object is sliding along a surface. Microscopically, this force is due to the fact that the two surfaces are not perfectly smooth, but they have "imperfections" that cause a force that opposes the motion of the object.

For an object sliding on a flat surface, the force of friction has magnitude:

F_f = \mu_k mg

where

\mu_k is the coefficient of kinetic friction

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

The direction of the force of friction is always opposite to the direction of motion of the object.

In reality, friction also acts if the object is at rest and it is pushed by a force; in this case, we talk about static friction, and its magnitude is

F_f = \mu_s mg

where \mu_s is called coefficient of static friction, and it is generally larger than the coefficient of kinetic friction.

Explain the importance of measurement<br>Physics.<br><br>​
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Measurements are an important part of comparing things, as they provide the basis on comparing objects to other objects. Measurements allow us to recognize three hours and see how it's shorter than five hours, without having to observe the hours passing by themselves.

When landing after a spectacular somersault, a 35.0 kg gymnast decelerates by pushing straight down on the mat. calculate the fo
Sliva [168]

The deceleration experienced by the gymnast is the 9 times of the acceleration due to gravity.

Now from Newton`s  first law, the net force on gymnast,

F_{net} =F-W=ma

Here, W is the weight of the gymnast and a is the acceleration experienced by the gymnast (9\times g acceleration due to gravity)  

Therefore,

F= ma+W OR F=ma+mg=m(g+a)

Given m = 30 kg anda=9\times g=9\times 9.8 m/s^{2} =88.2 m/s^{2}

Substituting these values in above formula and calculate the force exerted by the gymnast,  

F=(40 kg) (88.2 m/s^{2} +9.8 m/s^{2} )

F=3.537\times10^{3}N

What are the units of measure for distance?
olga2289 [7]
The most common unit is meters (m for short). It is the base unit for distance or displacement in the metric system. If you are dealing with larger distances, you might use kilometers (I'm for short) which is just 1000 meters. On the other hand, centimeter (cm) are used for small distances and are 1/100 of a meter. Another common unit is millimeters (mm) which is 1/1000 of a meter.
