Why does a revolving stone tied in a string flies away when the string breaks??

Physics

It is due to the inertia of direction. When the string breaks, the force acting on the stone ceases. In the absence of force, the stone flies away in the direction of instantaneous velocity which is along the tangent to the circular path.

Objects that are denser than water will sink in water. Question 1 options: True False
den301095 [7]
<h3>Answer: True</h3>

For example, a very dense metal will sink to the bottom while something like wood will float on the surface. The wood is less dense compared to the water, which is why it floats. Density is the measure of how much stuff you can pack in a certain volume. The higher the density, the more stuff per volume. Think of it like packing a suitcase. If there's barely anything in there, then we can say its density is low. The more stuff crammed in the suitcase will increase the density (and therefore the weight), while keeping the volume the same.

A mechanical wave starts when matter is disturbed by a source of ______.
Gwar [14]

Answer:

MATERIAL MEDIUM

Explanation:

Wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium and transfer energy from one point to another without causing any permanent displacement of the medium itself. The two forms of wave are the mechanical wave and the electromagnetic waves.

Mechanical wave is a wave with requires MATERIAL MEDIUM for its propagation. This means that before wave can be propagated at times, material medium is needed e.g a ripple tank. A ripple tank is a mechanical device that generates waves using an instrument called stroboscope attached to it. This kind of wave requires an external source before it can propagate compared to electromagnetic waves that does not require material medium for its propagation.
