Answer: Option A

Explanation: Waves (mechanical and electromagnetic) can transfer energy when they impact into something.

When a boat speeds in the water, the boat itself pushes water around it generating mechanical waves in the water, those mechanical waves now travel on the surface of the water. When those mechanical waves impact the buoy, the waves also move the buoy, and now the buy is in a "wave-like" motion (you can model the movement of the buoy as a mechanical wave, that goes up and down), so this is a good example of energy transfer.

Why does a vibrating simple pendulum not to produce any sound
Gelneren [198K]
It does produce 'sound' ... a compression wave traveling through the air. But your ears don't hear a sound that's vibrating less than 20 or 30 times every second. If you could swing your pendulum that fast, you could hear the sound of its vibrations pushing the air around.

Describe your acceleration as you skate down your neighborhood sidewalk.
Paraphin [41]

Answer: when you increase or decrease your speed.

Explanation:

Moving a skate at rest, you need to apply force in order to cause acceleration.

F = ma Where

F = force applied

m = mass of the skate

a = acceleration

The initial velocity u will be equal to zero and the skate will acceleration to a certain velocity.

as you skate down your neighborhood sidewalk, you will accelerate when you increase your speed. Because

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. That is,

Acceleration = change in velocity/ time.

And also, you will decelerate when you reduce the speed or velocity down your neighborhood sidewalk.
