What type of wave requires a medium to transfer energy

Physics
2 answers:
Digiron [165]3 years ago

Answer:

Mechanical waves.

Explanation:

A mechanical wave is a perturbation on the mechanical properties of the material medium (position, velocity, pressure, etc. ) in which it propagates.

Mechanical waves need a source that creates the perturbation and, a physical medium in which perturbation propagates, the medium can be a gas, a liquid or, a solid.

Some examples are sound, earthquakes and, waves on a guitar string.

3. How does Earth’s rotation affect our view of stars
Elis [28]
Since we ride along with the Earth while it's doing whatever it does,
the Earth's rotation causes our eyes to constantly point in a different
direction.

If we try to keep watching one star, we have to keep changing the
direction of our eyes to keep looking at the same star. 

We can't feel the Earth rotating, so our brains say that the star  ... and
the sun and the moon too ... is actually moving across the sky.

A helicopter flies with an air speed of 175 km/h, heading south. The wind is blowing at 85 km/h to the east relative to the grou
spayn [35]

Answer:

154° at 195 km/h

Explanation:

The helicopter is moving south at 175 km/h, relative to the wind.

But the wind is moving east at 85 km/h, relative to the ground.

This means that the helicopter is moving south east relative to the ground.

Every hour, the helicopter will move 175 km to the south and 85 km to the east, relative to the ground.

This means that we can determine the speed and direction of the helicopter using a right triangle and simple trigonometry.

Refer to the triangle b1.

The distance traveled by the helicopter in 1 hour is denoted by d.

d is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we can calculate d to be 195 km (rounded to 3 s. f.)

Hence the helicopter is traveling at 195 km/h relative to the ground.

To calculate the direction we use,

tan (x) = opposite/adjacent = 85/175

So the angle x is,

x = arctan (\frac{85}{175} ) = 25.9°

Relative to the North, the helicopter is moving at 180° - 25.9° = 154° (rounded to 3 s. f.)

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:0kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum before collision=momentum after collision

Since the momentum of the two blocks have positive sign, it means they are moving in thesame direction

Therefore we use the formula

Momentum (A)+momentum (B)=Momentum (A)+momentum (B)

25+35=60+momentum (B)

60=60+momentum (B)

Momentum (B)=60-60

Momentum (B)=0kgm/s

An aluminum wing on a passenger jet is 35 m long when its temperature is 17°C. At what temperature would the wing be 3 cm (0.03
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

53.32°C

Explanation:

Length of the aluminium wing = 35 m

Change in length of aluminium wing = 0.03 m

The linear expansion coefficient of aluminium \alpha =23.6\times 10^{-6}/^{\circ}C

We know that change in length is given by \Delta L=L\alpha \Delta T

So 0.03=35\times 23.6\times 10^{-6}\Delta T

\Delta T=36.32^{\circ}C

So final temperature =T_I+\Delta T=17+36.32=53.3196^{\circ}C
