Physics

NARA [144]3 years ago

Answer: B (Longitudinal waves travel through solids, liquids, and gases, Transverse waves only travel through  solids)

Explanation: A longitudinal wave alternately compresses the medium and stretches it out. Solids, liquids and gasses all push back when they are compressed— so they are all able to store energy this way and thus transmit the wave. But, Transverse waves can only go through solids because they have enough shear strength, but liquids and gases don't. ( Transverse waves are the transfer of energy in a motion that is perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling. Only solids are able to switch it's motion to travel through the wave.)

A car increases velocity from 0 m/s to 15 m/s in 2 seconds. What is the car’s acceleration?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

7.5 m/s^2

Explanation:

v=at

a= v/t

Since you have to v so

(v2- v1) /t

(15-0)/2= - 7.5

A 1280 kg car is moving 4.92 m/s. a 509 N force then pushes it forward for 28.7 m. what is its final KE?(unit=J)PLEASE HELP
laila [671]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: total energy = 30100.4 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (KE) is the energy due to the movement of and object, its units are joules (J)

Data

mass = 1280 kg

speed = 4.92 m/s

Force = 509 N

distance = 28.7 m

Formula

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

Work = Fd

Process

- Calculate Kinetic energy

- Calculate work

- Add both results

KE = \frac{1}{2} (1280)(4.92)^{2}

KE = 15492.1 J

Work = (509)(28.7)

Work = 14608.3 J

Total = 15492.1 + 14608.3

Total energy = 30100.4 J

For a bronze alloy, the stress at which plastic deformation begins is 294 MPa and the modulus of elasticity is 121 GPa. (a) What
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

a) load in Newton is 96,138 b) 129.314mm

Explanation:

Stress = force/ area (cross sectional area of the bronze)

Force(load) = 294*10^6*327*10^-6 = 96138N

b) modulus e = stress/ strain

Strain = stress/ e = (294*10^6)/ (121*10^ 9) = 2.34* 10^ -3

Strain = change in length/ original length = DL/ 129

Change in length DL = 129 * 2.34*10^ -3 = 0.31347

Maximum length = change in length + original length = 129.314mm

PLEASE HELP !!!
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer and Explanation:

The answer is <u>D) Alpha and Gamma</u>

Gamma radiation does not cause transmutations.

A <u>transmutation</u> is the <u>conversion of an atom of one element to an atom of another. This generally occurs through nuclear reacting.</u>

There are three main types of radiation: alpha, beta, and gamma. Both beta and alpha decay cause changes to the mass and atomic numbers. This results in a transmutation. Gamma radiation, however, does not.

Gamma radiation is the result of a gamma ray. In essence, the nucleus emits a high-energy proton. This is very penetrating and can only be stopped by aluminum, lead, soil, water, and concrete. This type of radiation does not change the element and, therefore, does not cause a transmutation.
