A wave, waves transport energy rather than matter from one area to another.
An example of this is conduction of thermal energy, for instance when you heat up a saucepan the metal areas of the pan not touching the heat source still heat up due to waves of thermal energy (conduction)

Answer: wave

Explanation:

These are the basic definitions and characteristic of the terms given, which show tha the only rigth answer is the second option: wave.

1) Force is an interaction. There are four natural forces: electrostatic, gravity, strong nuclear force and weak nuclear force.

2) Wave: is a sequence of pulses or vibrations that cause the continuous transportation of energy (propagation). There is not transport of mass, only energy.

Some examples of waves are sound waves, electromagnetic waves (light, radio waves, micro waves, infrarred waves, ultraviolet waves).

3) Vacuum: is the absence of matter; empty space. Only electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum; other waves need a medium to travel.

4) Medium: any matter is a medium: a solid, the air, a liquid, all of them are media through which waves can transport its energy, depending of the wavelength.

The binding of acetylcholine to its receptor at the neuromuscular junction causes the opening of a
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer: opening of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor channels.

Explanation:

Neuromuscular junction is a special junction formed between a motor neurone and a muscle fibre. The junction is fortified with nerves and receptors that helps in the transmission of signals from the motor neurone to the muscle fibre in order to bring about the desired voluntary movements through muscular contraction.

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor are activated through the binding of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction. This action leads to influx of sodium ions to accomplish endplate potential.

To test the performance of its tires, a car
velikii [3]

<u>Answer</u>:

The coefficient of  static friction between the tires and the road is 1.987

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Radius of the track, r =  516 m

Tangential Acceleration a_r=  3.89 m/s^2

Speed,v =  32.8 m/s

<u>To Find:</u>

The coefficient of  static friction between the tires and the road = ?

<u>Solution</u>:

The radial Acceleration is given by,

a_{R = \frac{v^2}{r}

a_{R = \frac{(32.8)^2}{516}

a_{R = \frac{(1075.84)}{516}

a_{R = 2.085 m/s^2

Now the total acceleration is

\text{ total acceleration} = \sqrt{\text{(tangential acceleration)}^2 +{\text{(Radial acceleration)}^2

=>= \sqrt{ (a_r)^2+(a_R)^2}

=>\sqrt{ (3.89 )^2+( 2.085)^2}

=>\sqrt{ (15.1321)+(4.347)^2}

=>19.4791 m/s^2

The frictional force on the car will be f = ma------------(1)

And the force due to gravity is W = mg--------------------(2)

Now the coefficient of  static friction is

\mu =\frac{f}{W}

From (1) and (2)

\mu =\frac{ma}{mg}

\mu =\frac{a}{g}

Substituting the values, we get

\mu =\frac{19.4791}{9.8}

\mu =1.987

horsena [70]

Answer:

     A = 2,8333  s

Explanation:

El periodo es definido como el tiene que toma de dar una oscilación.

En este caso realiza varias osicilacion por lo cual debemos encontrar el promedio del perdono.

              T = t/n

calculemos

              A = 34,0/ 12,0

              A = 2,8333  s
