Answer: Mechanical waves carry energy through a medium; electromagnetic waves carry energy through media and space.
Explanation:
<u>The waves which require medium to travel are known as mechanical waves. </u>The waves carry energy forward by compression and rarefaction that is by changing density /pressure of medium particles.
<u>Electromagnetic waves can transfer energy through space as well as medium. </u>In an electromagnetic wave, electric field generates magnetic field and magnetic field generates electric field. Electric field and magnetic field are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of motion.
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
mass (m) = 170 kg, Distance (s) = 9.6 m
Height (h) = 3.3 m, Force (F) = 1400 N
First, we will calculate the work performed by her as follows.
W = Fs
= 
= 13440 J
Hence, minimal work necessary to lift the refrigerator is as follows.
U = mgh
= 
= 5497.8 J
Therefore, we can conclude that he performed 5497.8 J of work.
Answer: metals.
Justification:
There are 118 elements which you can find in the periodic table ordered by atomic number. Those elements my be classified into metals, non-metals and metalloids.
The metals are placed on the left side of the periodic table. The metals share the properties of luster, conductivity and flexibility.
The properties of non-metals (which are on the right side of the periodic table) are opposite to those of metals: opaque, low conductivity and brittle.
Metalloids have in between properties.
Copper, for example is a metal: it has luster, is flexible and is highly conductive of the electricity (and temperature).
(a)
KE = m v^2 / 2 = (1200 kg)(20 m/s)^2 / 2 = 240,000 J
(b)
The energy is entirely dissipated by the force of friction in the brake system.
(c)
W = delta KE = KEf - KEi = (0 - 240,000) J = -240,000 J
(d)
Fd = delta KE
F = (delta KE) / d = (-240,000 J) / (50 m) = -4800 N
The magnitude of the friction force is 4800 N.
