5-14 m/s in 3 seconds
a=vf-vi/t
a=14-5/3
a=9/3
a=3 m/s^2

What is transferred by all types of waves? A. energy B. electrons C. heat D. matter

djyliett [7]

The question is what do all types of waves transfer. Waves, both mechanical and electromagnetic are disturbances that transfer energy without transporting matter. It doesnt matter wether they are propagating trough a medium or trough vacuum. Therefore the correct answer is A. energy.

To answer the two questions, we need to know two important equations involving centripetal movement:

v = ωr (ω represents angular velocity in radians)

a = $\frac{v^{2}}{r}$

Let's apply the first equation to question a:

v = ωr

v = ((1800*2π) / 60) * 0.26

Wait. 2π? 0.26? 60? Let's break down why these numbers are written differently. In order to use the equation v = ωr, it is important that the units of ω is in radians. Since one revolution is equivalent to 2π radians, we can easily do the conversion from revolutions to radians by multiplying it by 2π. As for 0.26, note that the question asks for the units to be m/s. Since we need meters, we simply convert 26 cm, our radius, into meters. The revolutions is also given in revs/min, and we need to convert it into revs/sec so that we can get our final units correct. As a result, we divide the rate by 60 to convert minutes into seconds.

Back to the equation:

v = ((1800*2π)/60) * 0.26

v = (1800*2(3.14)/60) * 0.26

v = (11304/60) * 0.26

v = 188.4 * 0.26

v = 48.984

v = 49 (m/s)

Now that we know the linear velocity, we can find the centripetal acceleration:

a = $\frac{v^{2}}{r}$

a = $\frac{49^{2}}{0.26}$

a = 9234.6 (m/ $s^{2}$ )

Wow! That's fast!

We now have our answers for a and b:

a. 49 (m/s)

b. 9.2 * $10^{3}$ (m/ $s^{2}$ )

If you have any questions on how I got to these answers, just ask!

stich3 [128]

The back-and-forth movement of electrons is called alternating current. Electrons go back and forth, the direction of their path alternates from one direction to another.

the movement of electrons in one direction is called direct current. The electrons move in a direct, single path without changing directions.
