A surface wave is a wave that travels along the surface of a medium. The medium is the matter through which the wave travels. Ocean waves are the best-known examples of surface waves. They travel on the surface of the water between the ocean and the air. (According to ck12.org)
So your answer would be A!
Answer:
500 watts
Explanation:
Recall that the definition of power is the amount of energy delivered per unit of time.
In our case, the energy delivered is potential energy which we can estimate as the product of the weight of the object times the distance it is lifted above ground:
200 N x 10 m = 2000 Nm
then the power is the quotient of this potential energy divided the time it took to lift the object to that position:
Power = 2000 / 4 Nm/s = 500 Nm/s = 500 watts
Answer:
b. v = 0, a = 9.8 m/s² down.
Explanation:
Hi there!
The acceleration of gravity is always directed to the ground (down) and, near the surface of the earth, has a constant value of 9.8 m/s². Since the answer "b" is the only option with an acceleration of 9.8 m/s² directed downwards, that would solve the exercise. But why is the velocity zero at the highest point?
Let´s take a look at the height function:
h(t) = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 g · t²
Where
h0 = initial height
v0 = initial velocity
t = time
g = acceleration due to gravity
Notice that the function is a negative parabola if we consider downward as negative (in that case "g" would be negative). Then, the function has a maximum (the highest point) at the vertex of the parabola. At the maximum point, the slope of the tangent line to the function is zero, because the tangent line is horizontal at a maximum point. The slope of the tangent line to the function is the rate of change of height with respect to time, i.e, the velocity. Then, the velocity is zero at the maximum height.
Another way to see it (without calculus):
When the ball is going up, the velocity vector points up and the velocity is positive. After reaching the maximum height, the velocity vector points down and is negative (the ball starts to fall). At the maximum height, the velocity vector changed its direction from positive to negative, then at that point, the velocity vector has to be zero.
AuthenticD3mon and I talked it over and agreed that
natural gas is the least polluting fossil fuel.
(See comments under his answer.)
Constant speed because the time is directly proportional to the speed (2). The average speed is 2 m/s
