<em>Mechanical waves need a medium through which to transport energy is true</em>

Answer: <em>True </em>

Explanation:

Mechanical wave cannot travel in the absence of a material medium. The reason why sound can’t be heard in vacuum is because it is a mechanical wave. Seismic wave, which is produced during earthquakes and ocean waves are also mechanical waves.

Mechanical waves are of three types and they are

  • <em>Transverse wave </em>
  • <em>Longitudinal wave </em>
  • <em>Surface wave </em>

Electromagnetic waves are known for their propagation without a material medium. X-rays, light waves, infrared waves etc are electromagnetic waves.

Characteristic features of a wave are its frequency, wavelength, speed etc.

Answer:True

Explanation: The mechanical waves need a medium through which to transport energy because the perturbation travels inside of the medium so it needs molecules that connect elastically the displacement of the wave. For example the sound mainly uses the air molecules to transport the energy also the sound can be traveled in solid materials like metal rods.

Can anyone help me with this question please​
JulsSmile [24]

Explanation:

V=u+at

where,

v=final speed

u=initial speed,(starting speed)

a=acceleration

t=time

  1. v=u+at = 6=2+a*2

6=2+2a

2a=6-2

2a=4

a=4/2 = 2

a =2

2. to find time taken

v=u+at

25=5*2t

2t=25-5

2t=20

t=20/2

t=10sec

3. finding final speed

v=u+at

v=4+10*2

=4+20

v=24m/sec

5.v=u+at

=5+8*10

=5+80

V=85m/sev

6. v=u+at

8=u+4*2

8=u+8

U=8/8

u=1

these are your missing values

There are two possibilities for final stage of extremely massive stars. The first is a
makkiz [27]

Answer: Black hole.

Explanation:

As the massive star "compacts" under its own gravity, it triggers a massive supernova, after this point the remains of the star can become a neutron star, which is a very compact star made primarily, as the name says, of neutrons. The other possibility is a black hole, which is a finite region of space wherein it's interior there is a big concentration of mass, which creates a gravitational field strong enough that there is no particle that can escape it.

On Earth, plasma exists in the ionosphere, in flames, and in chemical and nuclearexplosions. Matter in a controlled thermonuclea
nasty-shy [4]

The cost of developing thermonuclear power with plasmabe defended because D. It can provide an inexpensive power source.

<h3>How did the cost of developing thermonuclear power defended?</h3>

The  cost of developing thermonuclear power defended becvause we can see in the paragraph how it was told that the generation of ths power can be donee through the understanding of  the occurrence of plasmain nature,

It should be noted that this  thermonuclear power with plasmabe  posses the characteristics which make it to exist in the ionosphere, and it can be felt in the flames as well; as in the chemical and nuclearexplosions.

In conclusion the power can be seen as an inexpensive source power because the p[roduction of this power cn be found in most of the thing that can be found around us as discused above.

Therefore, option D is correct.
