Gekata [30.6K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C. a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and without a transfer of matter

Explanation:

A wave is any disturbance that transfers energy from one location to the other via a substance called medium. It is important to note that a wave only conveys energy and not matter. For example, sound wave is a type of wave that carries sound energy from one place to another via mediums such as water, air etc.

Hence, according to this question, a wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and WITHOUT A TRANSFER OF MATTER.

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

m = 1,975 m / kg , b = 38.05 m

Explanation:

In this experiment, the elongation is plotted against the applied mass

getting a straight line

            y = m x + b

 

where b would be the initial length of spring let's calculate the slope for which we use two well separated points

           m = (56.3 -48.4) / (8 - 4)

           m = 1,975 m / kg

the equation remains

         y = 1,975 x + b

for x = 2 kg y = 42.0 m

we substitute in the equation

           42 = 1,975 2 + b

           b = 42 - 3.95

           b = 38.05 m
