What happens to the object when positive velocity and positive acceleration occur?

there are two types of waves: electromagnetic and mechanical. can either type travel regardless of the presence of a medium?

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Yes, electromagnetic can travel without medium.

Mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves are two important ways that energy is transported in the world around us.

Waves in water and sound waves in air are two examples of mechanical waves.

Mechanical waves are caused by a disturbance or vibration in matter, whether solid, gas, liquid, or plasma.

Matter that waves are traveling through is called a medium.

These mechanical waves travel through a medium by causing the molecules to bump into each other, like falling dominoes transferring energy from one to the next.

Sound waves cannot travel in the vacuum of space because there is no medium to transmit these mechanical waves.

On the other hand electromagnetic waves don't require medium for its propagation.

An easy example would be light which is an EM wave reaches earth even though space has no medium.

A glider is gliding through the air at a height of 416 meters with a speed of 45.2 m/s. The glider

julia-pushkina [17]

There's not enough information to find an answer.

I think the idea here is that in descending (416 - 278) = 138 meters,
the glider gives up some gravitational potential energy, which
becomes kinetic energy at the lower altitude. This is all well and
good, but we can't calculate the difference in potential energy
without knowing the mass of the glider.

Student swings a small rubber stopper attached to a string over her head in a horizontal, circular path. The string is 1.50 mete

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

v = 18.84 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The length of the string, r = 1.5 m (it will act as radius)

The rubber stopper makes 120 complete circles every minute.

Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds

It means, its frequency is 2 circles every second.

Let we need to find the average speed of the rubber stopper. It can be calculated as follows :

$v=\dfrac{d}{T}$

d is distance, $d=2\pi r$ and 1/T = f (frequency)

$v=2\pi rf\\\\=2\pi \times 1.5\times 2\\\\=18.84\ m/s$

So, the average speed of the rubber stopper is 18.84 m/s.

Potential energy becomes kinetic energy when:

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

An object has potential energy (stored energy) when it is not in motion. Once a force has been applied or it begins to move the potential energy changes to kinetic energy (energy of motion).

EXAMPLE: A rock sitting on the edge of a cliff. If the rock falls, the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy, as the rock will be moving. A stretched elastic string in a longbow.
