Many factors can cause disturbance that results in a wave.
For example, the waves created in sea are due to the gravitational pull of attraction between Earth and moon. Human activities are also responsible(huge ships). The air above the surface of sea can also cause waves. In case of electromagnetic field, electromagnetic waves are created because of acceleration of charged particles.

Describe how kinetic and potential energy change as a diver climbs up to a diving board and then dives into the water below.
Dima020 [189]

A diver having mass m climbs up the diving board.
We know that Gravitational potential energy is given as <span>P<span>EG</span>=mgΔh</span>

What changes is his Gravitational potential energy due to change of height <span>Δh</span> with reference to the ground/water level.
While standing on the diving board his velocity is zero. As such kinetic energy is also zero.

Once he jumps off the springboard we see he gets additional energy from the springboard and falls down under action of gravity g. Due to decrease of height above the ground level Gravitational potential energy decreases and gets converted in to his kinetic energy. <span>1/2m<span>v2</span></span>.

While in air he encounters air resistance. Some of his energy is spent in overcoming this resistance. Gets converted in to kinetic and thermal energy of surrounding air and his body.

Once diver reaches the water, we see water splashing and hear noise of splash. Thereafter the diver comes to rest. Now his potential energy becomes zero. And converted kinetic energy has been converted in to kinetic energy, heat energy and sound energy of water.

As such energy transformation equation looks like

<span><span>Gravitational PE+Elastic PE of springboard</span><span>→Kinetic energy of air and water+Sound energy of splash+thermal energy</span></span>

Hii I need help ASAP with this physics question
Readme [11.4K]

Between the top of the first and the top of the second loop, the coaster has lost potential energy = mgh, where h = 22.2 - 15 = 7.2m

This energy would have converted to Kinetic. Write out an equation and the masses will cancel out. Does that hint help you to find the solution? If not, I will give you another hint.

que tiempo tarda juan en su carro al llegar al trabajo si lleva una velocidad de 25 m/s a una distancia de 5m
kramer

Answer:

0.2s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Speed  = 25m/s

Distance  = 5m

Unknown:

Time taken for Juan to get to his work  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we use the relationship below:

 

   Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}  

  Time  =  \frac{distance }{speed}  

So;

   Time  = \frac{5}{25}   = 0.2s
