Waves are ? that can travel through matter.

Physics
1 answer:
Rom4ik [11]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A wave can be thought of as a disturbance or oscillation that travels through space-time, accompanied by a transfer of energy. The direction a wave propagates is perpendicular to the direction it oscillates for transverse waves. A wave does not move mass in the direction of propagation; it transfers energy.

The ball of a ballpoint pen is 0.5 mm in diameter and has an ASTM grain size of 12. How many grainsare there in the ball
Alina [70]

Answer:

the number of grains in the ball is 274,848

Explanation:

Given that;

diameter = 0.5 mm

so radius r = 0.25 mm

first we determine the volume of the ball using the following equation;

V = 4/3×πr³

we substitute

V = 4/3×π(0.25)³

V =  0.06544 mm³

Now form table 1.1 "Grain sizes" a metal with grain size number of 12 has about 4,200,000 grains/mm³

so;

Number of grains N = 0.06544 × 4,200,000

N = 274,848 grains

Therefore, the number of grains in the ball is 274,848

The velocity of the wave involved in the Doppler effect:
Margarita [4]

The Doppler Effect provides the equation for the calculation of apparent frequency:

f=fo[vo/(vo-vr)] 

where:<span>
vo=source wave velocity 
vr=relative speed between source and observer 
f=apparent frequency 
fo=source frequency </span>

<span>
The velocity of the doppler wave is 
v=λf</span>

where λ is light wavelength. Hence,

v=λfo[vo/(vo-vr)] 

Based on the equation, we can say that wave velocity will always be defined by one and only one wavelength.

Therefore the answer is letter C.

Which statement best defines inertia? An object's motion is unaffected by any external forces acting upon it. An object responds
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

An object responds to a force by tending to move in the direction of that force

Explanation:

The inertia of a body can be defined with the help of Newton's second law

          F = m a

Where F is the applied force, a is the acceleration of the body and m is the mass

the force and the acceleration are vectors that point in the same direction and m is a scalar constant that relates the two vectors, this scalar constant is called masses and it measures the resistance of the bodies to the change of motion.

From the previous statement we see that the statement that best describes inertia is:

An object responds to force by tending to move in the direction of the force.

PROVE THAT G = GM/R² WHERE THE SYMBOLS HAS THEIR USUAL MEANINGS<br>​
butalik [34]

Answer:

g=GM/R^2

Universal Gravutation Constant:

f=GM×m/R^2

Force can be also expressed as

f=m×g

so,

mg=GMxm/R^2

The m gets cancelled so

g=GM/R^2
