Answer: K.E = 8.3 J

Explanation:

The given parameters are

Height h = 169.2 m

Mass m = 0.005kg

From conservation of energy, at the top of the monument, the total energy will be kinetic energy which is equal to the potential energy. That is,

K.E = P.E

And

P.E = mgh

Where g = 9.81 m/s^2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

P.E = 0.005 × 9.81 × 169.2

P.E = 8.2908 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy (KE) of the nickel in her shirt pocket at the top of the monument is approximately 8.3 Joule.

What travels by vibrating particles? Mechincal Waves or ElecrtoMagnetic Waves.
Naddik [55]

Answer:mechanical waves.

Explanation:

Mechanical waves require the particles of the medium to vibrate in order for energy to be transferred. For example, water waves, earthquake/seismic waves, sound waves, and the waves that travel down a rope or spring are also mechanical waves.
