<span>A mechanical wave is created when a source of energy causes a vibration to travel through a medium

And yeah lol
A mechanical wave is a disturbance in matter that carries energy from one place to another :)

This what you needed? </span>

What is the acceleration aaa of the refrigerator 4 ss after the person begins pushing on it with a force of 400 NN

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

2 ms^2

Explanation:

Given that the mass of the refrigerator is 200Kg

The net force acting on the refrigerator is 400N

The time takes is 4s

From Newtons's second law of motion;

F =ma

a = F/m

a = 400/200

a = 2 ms^2

This is a constant acceleration

A basketball player standing under the hoop shoots the ball straight up with an initial velocity of v0Part (a) What is the maxim

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Maximum height will be $h=\sqrt{\frac{v_0^2}{2g}}$

Explanation:

We have given initial velocity through which basketball is thrown $=v_0$

Acceleration due to gravity $=g\ m/sec^2$

At maximum height velocity will be zero

So final velocity v = 0 m /sec

According to third equation of motion $v^2=u^2+2gh$

$0^2=v_0^2-2gh$ ( Negative sign is due to upward acceleration )

$h=\sqrt{\frac{v_0^2}{2g}}$

A rock hits a window and stops in 0.15 seconds. The net force on the rock is 58N during the collision. What is the magnitude of

nlexa [21]

Answer:

The change in momentum is $\Delta p = 0.7 \ kg\cdot m \cdot s^{-1}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The time taken for the stone to stop is $\Delta t = 0.15 \ seconds$

The net force on the rock is $F = 58 \ N$

The impulse of the rock can be mathematically represented as

$I = F * \Delta t$

Substituting values

$I = 58 * 0.15$

$I = 0.7\ kg * m * s^{-1}$

Now impulse is defined as the rate at which momentum change

Hence the change in momentum $\Delta p$ of the rock is equal to the impulse of the rock

$\Delta p = I = 0.7 \ kg\cdot m \cdot s^{-1}$
