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

What does a mechanical advantage less then one mean? What is gained?
GrogVix [38]
A mechanical advantage less than ' 1 ' means the output <u>force</u> is less than the input
force. But <em>distance</em> is gained ... the load moves farther than the driving force moves.

An example of all this is a big father and his little 4-year-old daughter playing
on the see-saw in the park.  He adjusts the board so that he's much closer
to the pivot than she is, and that way, their weights can balance each other.

It's set up so that the mechanical advantage from him to her is less than ' 1 '.
Now, look at what happens when Dad sits down on his end of the see-saw,
and pushes it down with his 180 pounds of force.  At the other end, the board
is barely lifting her with a force of just 30 pounds.  BUT ... as he sinks down
only 1 foot against his end of the board, <em>her</em> end rises 6 feet off the ground.

Water is poured into a bowl at a constant rate of 17.0 cm^3/s. The bowl has a circular cross section, but does not have a unifor
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

10.29 cm/s

Explanation:

Discharge in to the bowl = 17.0 cm³/s

Diameter of the bowl, d₁ = 1.45 cm

Now,

Rate at which water level rise at its diameter = \frac{\textup{Discharge}}{\textup{Area of cross-section}}

also,

Area of cross-section = \frac{\pi}{\textup{4}}\times1.45^2

or

Area of cross-section = 1.651 cm²

Therefore,

Rate at which water level rise at its diameter = \frac{\textup{17}}{\textup{1.651}}

or

Rate at which water level rise at its diameter = 10.29 cm/s

Which is true?A)The spin angular momentum vector itself can be measured, and it can be aligned along the measurement axis (z axi
12345 [234]

Answer:

Option A is correct

Explanation:

Direction of spin can be measured because of the behaviours of the particle as it goes through a magnetic field and the size of the spin is dependant on type of particle.

Calculate the wavelength associated with electrons moving with p.d of 1500v
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

3.16X10∧-11 m

Explanation:

1/2 mv2 = qV (KE = Electric potential energy)

velocity = √2qV/m = √( 2X 1.6X10∧-19 X 1500/9.11X10∧-31)

2.3X10∧7m/s

now use De Broglie equation

λ = h/mv

= 6.62X10∧-34/( 9.11X10∧-31 X 2.3X10∧7)

3.16 X 10∧-11 m

or

use the above equations and substitute to get the final eqiation

λ = h/√(2mqV) = 3.16X 10∧-11 m
