Both mechanical and electromagnetic waves _____. have compressions and rarefactions oscillate in the same direction as the wave

motion transmit energy require a medium for transfer
Physics
1 answer:
Leona [35]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

transmit energy

Explanation:

Waves (both mechanical and electromagnetic) are periodic perturbations of the space that transmit energy without transmitting matter. (so, "transmit energy" is valid for both types of waves).

The other statements are wrong because:

have compressions and rarefactions --> this is a property only of longitudinal waves, while electromagnetic waves are transverse, so they do not have compressions

oscillate in the same direction as the wave motion --> this is the description of longitudinal waves, while electromagnetic waves are transverse,

require a medium for transfer --> this is true only for mechanical waves: electromagnetic waves in fact do not need a medium to propagate.

astronaut is traveling in a space vehicle moving at 0.510c relative to the Earth. The astronaut measures her pulse rate at 61.0
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

45.13 beats/min

Explanation:

Speed of space vehicle  = 0.51c

the pulse rate measured by the astronaut= 61.0 beats per minute

Pulse rate measured by the Earth observer is given by

=(pulse\ rate)\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} }

putting vales we get

=61\sqrt{1-\frac{0.51^2c^2}{c^2} }

= 45.13 beats/min

Which best symbolizes the hydrogen bonding between two water molecules?
Artemon [7]

The best symbolizes the hydrogen bonding between two water molecules is given in the diagram.

<h3 /><h3>What is hydrogen bonding?</h3>

A hydrogen bond is an attraction between an electronegative atom carrying a single pair of electrons—the hydrogen bond acceptor—and a hydrogen atom that is covalently bonded to a more electronegative "donor" atom or group.

One definition of a polar covalent bond is one in which one atom has a stronger alternation for electron negativity difference between two bonds, the more polar the link.

Polar molecules like H2O have a mild partial negative charge in one area and a partial positive charge in another.

A child on a sled is perched at the top of a hill, at a height 7.0 m above the base of the hill. The total mass of the girl plus
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

a)11,71 m/s

b)12.73 m/s

Explanation:

We apply the conservation principle because there is no friction between the hill and the sled:

Total initial energy (Ei) = Total initial energy (Ef), Equation(1)

We define:

K = Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}

U = Potential energy = m*g*h

m = mass (kg)

v = velocity (m/s)

h = height (m)

g = gravity acceleration = 9.8m/s^{2}

A)  hi=7m, hf=0 ,vi=0 , vf=?

   Ei=Ef\\Ki+Ui=Kf+Uf

1/2*m*vi^{2} +m*g*hi= 1/2*m*vf^{2} +m*g*hf

0+m*g*hi=1/2*m*vf^{2}+0

(2*m*g*hi)/m=vf^{2}

vf=\sqrt{2*g*hi}

vf=\sqrt{2*9.8*7}

vf=11.71 m/s

Answer: She reaches the base of the hill with speed of 11.22 m/s

B) hi=7 m, vi=5 m/s, hf=0, vf=?

m*g*hi+1/2*m*vi^{2} =m*g*hf+1/2*m*vf^{2}

We divide all terms by m

g*hi+1/2vi^{2} =g*hf+1/2*vf^{2}

9.8*7+1/2*5^{2} =1/2*vf^{2}

2(68.6+12.5)=vf^{2}

162.2=vf^{2}

vf=\sqrt{162.2}

vf=12.73 m/s

Answer: She will move with a speed of 12.73 m/s when she reaches the base of the hill
