A mechanical wave<span> is a </span>wave<span> that is an oscillation of </span>matter<span>, and therefore transfers energy through a </span>medium.[1]<span> While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the </span>medium of transmission<span>—the material—is limited. Therefore, oscillating material does not move far from its initial equilibrium position. Mechanical waves transport energy. This energy propagates in the same direction as the wave. Any kind of wave (mechanical or electromagnetic) has a certain energy. Mechanical waves can be produced only in media which possess elasticity and inertia.</span>

What is the relation between acceleration due to gravity and radius of the earth? ​
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

As the earth is an oblate spheroid, its radius near the equator is more than its radius near poles. Since for a source mass, the acceleration due to gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the radius of the earth, it varies with latitude due to the shape of the earth.

Formula: g = GM/r2

Dimensional Formula: M0L1T-2

Values of g in SI: 9.806 ms-2

Needing help explaining these!!! (2 pics attached)
Dmitriy789 [7]

#28

Fluid always flow from higher pressure to lower pressure so as we can see the figure liquid is coming out of the spray bottle so it clearly shows that the pressure outside the tube will be lower than the pressure inside the tube.

#29

Momentum is defined as product of mass and its velocity

so here we will have

P = mv

here we have

m = 38 kg

v = 2.2 m/s

so we will have

P = (38 kg)(2.2 m/s)

P = 83.6 kg m/s

A tugboat tows a ship with a constant force of magnitude F1. The increase in the ship's speed during a 10 s interval is 3.0 km/h
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of F₁ is 3.7 times of F₂

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 10 sec

Speed = 3.0 km/h

Speed of second tugboat = 11 km/h

We need to calculate the speed

v_{1}=\dfrac{3.0\times10^{3}}{3600}

v_{1}=0.833\ m/s

The force F₁is constant acceleration is also a constant.

F_{1}=ma_{1}

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

a_{1}=\dfrac{v}{t}

a_{1}=\dfrac{0.833}{10}

a_{1}=0.083\ m/s^2

Similarly,

F_{2}=ma_{2}

For total force,

F_{3}=F_{2}+F_{1}

ma_{3}=ma_{2}+ma_{1}

The speed of second tugboat is

v=\dfrac{11\times10^{3}}{3600}

v=3.05\ m/s

We need to calculate total acceleration

a_{3}=\dfrac{v}{t}

a_{3}=\dfrac{3.05}{10}

a_{3}=0.305\ m/s^2

We need to calculate the acceleration a₂

0.305=a_{2}+0.083

a_{2}=0.305-0.083

a_{2}=0.222\ m/s^2

We need to calculate the factor of F₁ and F₂

Dividing force F₁ by F₂

\dfrac{F_{1}}{F_{2}}=\dfrac{m\times0.83}{m\times0.22}

\dfrac{F_{1}}{F_{2}}=3.7

F_{1}=3.7F_{2}

Hence, The magnitude of F₁ is 3.7 times of F₂

A motorbike is travelling with a velocity of 3m/s. It accelerates at a rate of 9.3m/s for 1.8s. Calculate the distance it travel
Misha Larkins [42]

Explanation:

Consider the kinematic equation,

x  = vt +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

where x is the distance traveled, v is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is time. By plugging in known values and solving for x,

x = 3(1.8) +  \frac{1}{2} (9.3) {1.8}^{2}

through simple algebra we get

x = 20.466

where this is the distance traveled in meters.
