Mechanical waves are those waves that require a material medium for propagation.
<h3>What are mechanical waves?</h3>
Generally, we define a wave as a disturbance along a medium which transfers energy. It then follows that waves move energy from one point to another.
Waves can be classified as;
- Mechanical waves
- Electromagnetic waves
Mechanical waves are those waves that require a material medium for propagation such as sound, and waves on a strings.

The absence of external force in the outer space, allows the piece of rock to continue moving at the same velocity for thousands of years.
<h3>Absence of external force on the outer space</h3>
The outer space is almost an absolute vacuum, because it's nearly empty. There is no matter such as air in the outer space that will provide an external force needed to change the velocity of the piece of rock.
From Newton's first law of motion, an object in a state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, will continue in that state unless it is acted upon by an external force.
Thus, the absence of external force in the outer space, allows the piece of rock to continue moving at the same velocity for thousands of years.

I did the quiz nd this was the right answer
Hopes this helps :)
Answer:
0.767m
Explanation:
We are given that the time interval between each droplet is equal.
We are also given that the fourth drop is just dripping from the shower when the first hits the floor.
If they fall at the same time interval and we know that the distance between the shower head and floor are the same, they must therefore fall at the same velocity.
The distance between each drop has to be the same given that they fall at equal time intervals.
Let this distance be x.
We can then partition the entire height of the system into three parts (as shown in the diagram).
Hence, we can say that:
x + x + x = 2.3m
3x = 2.3m
=> x = 2.3/3 = 0.767m
Therefore, at the time the first drop hits the floor, the third drop is only 0.767 m below the shower head.
