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 560-g squirrel with a surface area of 930cm2 falls from a 5.0-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use a dra
bija089 [108]

Explanation:

Terminal velocity is given by:

v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2mg}{\rho C_dA}}

Here, m is the mass of the falling object, g is the gravitational acceleration,  C_d is the drag coefficient, \rho is the fluid density through which the object is falling, and A is the projected area of the object. in this case the projected area is given by:

A=\frac{A_s}{2}=\frac{930cm^2}{2}=465cm^2\\465cm^2*\frac{1m^2}{10^4cm^2}=0.0465m^2\\560g*\frac{1kg}{10^3g}=0.56kg

Recall that drag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver is equal to 1 and air density is 1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}.

v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.56kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})}{(1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}(1)(0.0465m^2)}}\\v_t=13.58\frac{m}{s}

Without drag contribution the motion of the person is an uniformly accelerated motion, thus:

v_f^2=v_o^2+2gh\\v_f=\sqrt{2gh}\\v_f=\sqrt{2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(5m)}\\v_f=9.9\frac{m}{s}

What does frequency mean in science
matrenka [14]

There's nothing mysterious about it at all. "Frequency" simply means
"often-ness" ... how often or how frequently something happens.

-- The frequency of traditional meals is 3 per day.
-- The frequency of an equinox is 2 per year.
-- The frequency of my sleeping really late is 1 per week.
-- The frequency of my intense desire to sleep late is 30 per month.
etc.

-- The standard unit of frequency in the SI system is "per second".
The special name for that unit is "Hertz".  (Hz)
