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.

If a fisherman applies a horizontal force with magnitude 47.0 NN to the box and produces an acceleration of magnitude 3.20 m/s2m

musickatia [10]

Answer:

The correct solution is "14.6875 kg".

Explanation:

Given values:

Force,

F = 47.0 N

Acceleration,

a = 3.20 m/s²

Now,

⇒ $Force=Mass\times Acceleration$

or,

⇒ $F=ma$

⇒ $47.0=m\times 3.20$

⇒ $m=\frac{47.0}{3.20}$

⇒ $=14.6875 \ kg$

ella [17]

<span>The momentum of the basketball is three times that of the softball. Momentum equals mass times velocity. Therefore, if the basketball and softball are moving at the same velocity, and the basketball has three times the mass of the softball, the basketball has three times the momentum of the softball.</span>

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

gexp = 3.65 m/s²

Explanation:

The value of acceleration due to gravity changes with the altitude. The following formula gives the value of acceleration due to gravity at some altitude from the sea level:

gexp = g(1 - 2h/Re)

where,

gexp = expected value of g at altitude = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity at sea level = 9.8 m/s²

h = altitude = 2000 km = 2 x 10⁶ m

Re = Radius of Earth = 6.37 x 10⁶ m

Therefore,

gexp = (9.8 m/s²)(1 - 2*2 x 10⁶ m/6.37 x 10⁶ m)
