How do mechanical waves to travel from one place to another?​

Physics
1 answer:
AnnZ [28]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another.

Sound waves are incapable of traveling through a vacuum. Slinky waves, water waves, stadium waves, and jump rope waves are other examples of mechanical waves; each requires some medium in order to exist.

Calculate the potential energy of a 5 kg object sitting at the top of a 2 meter ramp.
trapecia [35]
The formula used to find potential energy is <em>P.E. = M * G * H</em> (P.E. is potential energy, M is mass, G is gravitational pull, and H is height). So the answer to your question is <em>5 * 9.8 * 2</em>, which equals 98.

A student throws a rock upwards. The rock reaches a maximum height 2.4 seconds after it was released.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

23.52 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time taken (t) to reach the maximum height = 2.4 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =..?

At the maximum height, the final velocity (v) is zero. Thus, we can obtain how fast the rock (i.e initial velocity)

was thrown as follow:

v = u – gt (since the rock is going against gravity)

0 = u – (9.8 × 2.4)

0 = u – 23.52

Collect like terms

0 + 23.52 = u

u = 23.52 m/s

Therefore, the rock was thrown at a velocity of 23.52 m/s.

In a car moving at constant acceleration, you travel 230 m between the instants at which the speedometer reads 40 km/h and 70 km
Goryan [66]
The relationship between the distance covered, initial and final speeds, and time can be expressed through the equation,

First equation,

                    2ad = Vf² - Vi²

Substituting the known values,
                   2(a)(0.230 km) = (70 km/h)² - (40 km/h)²
The value of a from the equation is 7173.92 km/h².

Second equation,
                   d = (Vi)(t) + 0.5at²

Substituting the known values,
                    0.230 km = (40 km/h)(t) + (0.5)(7173.92 km/h²)(t²)

The value of t from the equation is 4.1818 x 10^-3 hours which is also equal to 0.2509 minutes or 15 seconds.
