GalinKa [24]3 years ago
7 0

Sound needs medium to travel and it can not travel without medium

so sound wave is a travelling wave

now we also know that sound wave propagate in form of rarefaction and compression.

So all medium particles travel in the direction of wave only

so it is a longitudinal wave also

so correct answer will be

<em>mechanical longitudinal </em>

Does the sun fuse hydrogen into helium or vice versa?
NikAS [45]

Hydrogen has the smaller, lighter, simpler nucleus.
Helium has the larger, heavier, more complex nucleus.
Hydrogen nuclei are fused to form helium nuclei. 
When that happens, energy is released.

A 720 g softball is traveling at 15.0 m/s when caught. If the force of the glove on the ball is 520 N, what is the time it takes
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the softball, m = 720 g = 0.72 kg

velocity of the ball, v = 15.0 m/s

applied force, F = 520 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion, to determine the time it takes the ball to stop;

F = ma = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{0.72 \ \times \ 15}{520} \\\\t = 0.021 \ s \\

Therefore, the time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.

A 0.5 kg rock is dropped from a height of 1.0 m above the ground. Approximately how much kinetic energy will be stored in the ro
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

2.45 J

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) = 0.5 kg

Height (h) = 1 m

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

Next, we shall determine the velocity of the rock after it has fallen half way. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

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

Height (h) = 1/2 = 0.5 m

Final velocity (v) =?

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 0.5)

v² = 9.8

Take the square root of both side

v = √9.8

v = 3.13 m/s

Finally, we shall determine the kinetic energy of the rock after it has fallen half way. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 0.5 kg

Velocity (v) = 3.13 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

KE = ½mv²

KE = ½ × 0.5 × 3.13²

KE = 0.25 × 9.8

KE = 2.45 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the rock after it has fallen half way is 2.45 J
