Tell how electromagnetic waves differ from mechanical waves

Physics
1 answer:
Fudgin [204]3 years ago
3 0
<span>Electromagnetic and mechanical waves differ in that electromagnetic waves are always longitudinal and do not require a known medium, while mechanical waves are either longitudinal or compression waves and require a medium. All known electromagnetic waves are also known as forms of light.</span>

Answer:

F = 39.2 N

Explanation:

Since, the object is in uniform motion. Therefore, the frictional force on object will be:

Frictional Force = μk N = μk mg

where,

μk = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.2

m = mass of crate = 10 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

Frictional Force = (0.2)(10 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

Frictional Force = 19.6 N

The horizontal component of force must be equal to this frictional force to continue the uniform motion:

F Sin 30° = 19.6 N

F = 19.6 N/Sin 30°

<u>F = 39.2 N</u>

A projectile of mass 2.0 kg is fired in the air at an angle of 40.0 ° to the horizon at a speed of 50.0 m/s. At the highest poin
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

a) The fragment speeds of 0.3 kg is 33.3 m / s on the y axis

                                         0.7 kg is 109.4 ms on the x axis

b)  Y = 109.3 m

Explanation:

This is a moment and projectile launch exercise.

a) Let's start by finding the initial velocity of the projectile

       sin 40 = voy / v₀

       v_{oy} = v₀ sin 40

       v_{oy} = 50.0 sin40

       v_{oy} = 32.14 m / s

       cos 40 = v₀ₓ / V₀

       v₀ₓ = v₀ cos 40

       v₀ₓ = 50.0 cos 40

       v₀ₓ = 38.3 m / s

Let us define the system as the projectile formed t all fragments, for this system the moment is conserved in each axis

Let's write the amounts

Initial mass of the projectile M = 2.0 kg

Fragment mass 1 m₁ = 1.0 kg and its velocity is vₓ = 0 and v_{y} = -10.0 m / s

Fragment mass 2 m₂ = 0.7 kg moves in the x direction

Fragment mass 3 m₃ = 0.3 kg moves up (y axis)

Moment before the break

X axis

     p₀ₓ = m v₀ₓ

Y Axis y

    p_{oy} = 0

After the break

X axis

   p_{fx} = m₂ v₂

Axis y

     p_{fy} = m₁ v₁ + m₃ v₃

Let's write the conservation of the moment and calculate

Y Axis  

     0 = m₁ v₁ + m₃ v₃

Let's clear the speed of fragment 3

     v₃ = - m₁ v₁ / m₃

     v₃ = - (-10) 1 / 0.3

     v₃ = 33.3 m / s

X axis

     M v₀ₓ = m₂ v₂

     v₂ = v₀ₓ M / m₂

     v₂ = 38.3  2 / 0.7

     v₂ = 109.4 m / s

The fragment speeds of 0.3 kg is 33.3 m / s on the y axis

                                         0.7 kg is 109.4 ms on the x axis

b) The speed of the fragment is 33.3 m / s and has a starting height of where the fragmentation occurred, let's calculate with kinematics

       v_{fy}² = v_{oy}² - 2 gy

       0 =  v_{oy}²-2gy

       y =  v_{oy}² / 2g

       y = 32.14² / 2 9.8

       y = 52.7 m

This is the height where the break occurs, which is the initial height for body movement of 0.3 kg

      v_{f}² =  v_{y}² - 2 g y₂

      0 =  v_{y}² - 2 g y₂

     y₂ =  v_{y}² / 2g

     y₂ = 33.3²/2 9.8

     y₂ = 56.58 m

Total body height is

      Y = y + y₂

      Y = 52.7 + 56.58

     Y = 109.3 m

What is the coldest place on earth
exis [7]

The continent of Antartica is located at the bottom of the world. the South Pole is at its center. Antarctica is the coldest and windiest place on earth. It is covered with ice up to 3 miles thick. Very few plants and animals can survive here, but penguins, fish, and seals live on the coast and in the seas. No people live on Antarctica permanently, but scientists and tourists visit.
