You are sitting on the beach and wondering about the properties of mechanical waves. Describe them in terms of ocean waves.

Physics
1 answer:
Rudiy274 years ago

Answer:

The ocean waves is a mechanical wave that transmits mechanical energy in the wave by the synchronized and repeated oscillation of the waters about an equilibrium level such that as the wave approaches the shoreline, and the water depth decreases, the height of the wave also increases reflecting the effective transmission of energy while the medium which is the water through which the wave propagates, move back and forth within a small region

Explanation:

A mechanical wave like other waves is the oscillation of a field about an equilibrium level. In mechanical waves, the field consists of the oscillating matter such that the wave transmits energy through a medium. The displacement of the medium through which the wave energy is limited such that the wave energy is conserved to travel far.

1<br> Verify the identity. Show your work.<br><br> cot θ ∙ sec θ = csc θ
Fittoniya [83]
To verify the identity, we can make use of the basic trigonometric identities:
cot θ = cos θ / sin θ 
sec θ = 1 / cos <span>θ
csc </span>θ = 1 / sin θ<span>

Using these identities:
</span>cot θ ∙ sec θ = (cos θ / sin θ ) (<span> 1 / cos </span><span>θ)
</span>
We can cancel out cos <span>θ, leaving us with
</span>cot θ ∙ sec θ = 1 / sin θ
cot θ ∙ sec θ = = csc <span>θ</span>

An 8.2 kg object accelerates at 8.0 m/s^2. What is the acceleration?
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

under

Explanation:

We know that F = ma,

or, a = F/m

or, a = 120/30 (because, Force = 120 N and mass = 30 kg)

or a = 4m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration of the object is 4 meter per second squared.

What is a soundwave please quick
cricket20 [7]

In physics, sound is a vibration that propagates as an acoustic wave, through a transmission medium such as a gas, liquid or solid. In human physiology and psychology, sound is the reception of such waves and their perception by the brain.
