True or false all waves need a medium in order to travel

1 answer:

3 0

No light does not need medium to travel.Its an electromagnetic(EM) wave.All EM waves travel independent of medium. In contrast mechanical waves need a medium,sound waves,shock waves are mechanical and they need medium to transfer energy or travel.

Answer:

All the three quantities will have non zero joules.

Explanation:

At the initial position of rest the system will have only gravitational potential energy while the other 2 quantities will be zero.

when the system reaches a height (y-h) only kinetic energy will be zero while the other 2 quantities will be non zero

At the position of (y-h/2) all the 3 quantities will be non zero.

By how much does the volume of an aluminum cube 4.00 cm on an edge increase when the cube is heated from 19.0°C to 67.0°C? The l

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The volume of an aluminum cube is 0.212 cm³.

Explanation:

Given that,

Edge of cube = 4.00 cm

Initial temperature = 19.0°C

Final temperature = 67.0°C

linear expansion coefficient $\alpha=23.0\times10^{-6}/C^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the volume expansion coefficient

Using formula of volume expansion coefficient

$\beta=3\alpha$

Put the value into the formula

$\beta=3\times23.0\times10^{-6}$

$\beta=0.000069=69\times10^{-6}/C^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the volume

$V= a^3$

$V=4^3$

$V=64\ cm^3$

The change temperature of the cube is

$\Delta T=T_{f}-T_{i}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta T=67-19 = 48^{\circ}C$

We need to calculate the increases volume

Using formula of increases volume

$\Delta V=V\beta\Delta T$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta V=64\times69\times10^{-6}\times48$

$\Delta V=0.212\ cm^3$

Hence, The volume of an aluminum cube is 0.212 cm³.
