Answer: The correct word for the blank is 'oscillates'

" a mechanical wave is created when a medium <em>oscillates</em> , or moves back and forth or up and down

Explanation:

When the matter oscillates or vibrates it transfers energy through the medium in the form of wave which termed s mechanical wave.For example: Sound wave,slinky waves, water waves are the examples of mechanical waves.

So, " a mechanical wave is created when a medium <em>oscillates</em> , or moves back and forth or up and down

A. A child is twirling a 1.52 kg object in a vertical circle with a radius of 67.6
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

(a) 4.21 m/s

(b) 24.9 N

Explanation:

(a) Draw a free body diagram of the object when it is at the bottom of the circle.  There are two forces on the object: tension force T pulling up and weight force mg pulling down.

Sum the forces in the radial (+y) direction:

∑F = ma

T − mg = m v² / r

v = √(r (T − mg) / m)

v = √(0.676 m (54.7 N − 1.52 kg × 9.8 m/s²) / 1.52 kg)

v = 4.21 m/s

(b) Draw a free body diagram of the object when it is at the top of the circle.  There are two forces on the object: tension force T pulling down and weight force mg pulling down.

Sum the forces in the radial (-y) direction:

∑F = ma

T + mg = m v² / r

T = m v² / r − mg

T = (1.52 kg) (4.21 m/s)² / (0.676 m) −  (1.52 kg) (9.8 m/s²)

T = 24.9 N

Frequency of the wave below?
agasfer [191]

It's hard to tell exactly what's happening in that 110 cm that you marked over the wave. What is under the ends of the long arrow ? How many complete waves ? I counted 4.5 complete waves ... maybe ?

If there are 4.5 complete waves in 110cm, then the length of 1 wave is (110/4.5)=24.44cm.

Frequency = speed/wavelength

Frequency = 2m/s /0.2444m

Frequency = 8.18 Hz
