A mechanical wave is a wave that is caused by matter oscillations and thus transfers energy through a medium. Although waves can travel great distances, the medium of transmission—the material—can only go so far. As a result, the oscillating material stays close to its initial equilibrium position.


Hope this helps

Answer:

A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the medium of transmission—the material—is limited. Therefore, the oscillating material does not move far fro

MrMuchimi

Answer:

Three types of electromagnetic waves, used to transmit various information

Explanation:

A form of energy waves having both electric & magnetic fields are Electromagnetic waves. Three types -

Radio Waves - These have longest wavelengths & transmit data through radio, satellites, radar .

Micro Waves - These have shorter wavelengths & are used in cooking appliances & predicting weather.

X rays - These have more short wavelength and can penerate soft tissues like skin & muscle, hence are used for medical examining

Suppose you were asked to demonstrate electromagnetic induction. Which of the following situations will result in an electric cu
steposvetlana [31]
D. All of the above. When a wire loop is moved or rotated in a magnetic field, there is a change in magnetic flux which produces emf in wire loop and hence electric current is produced.

The electron gun in a television tube is used to accelerate electrons with mass 9.109 × 10−31 kg from rest to 3 × 107 m/s within
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Electric field, E = 40608.75 N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of electrons, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

Initial speed of electron, u = 0

Final speed of electrons, v=3\times 10^7\ m/s

Distance traveled, s = 6.3 cm = 0.063 m

Firstly, we will find the acceleration of the electron using third equation of motion as :

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}

a=\dfrac{(3\times 10^7)^2}{2\times 0.063}

a=7.14\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

Now we will find the electric field required in the tube as :

ma=qE

E=\dfrac{ma}{q}

E=\dfrac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 7.14\times 10^{15}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

E = 40608.75 N/C

So, the electric field required in the tube is 40608.75 N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which term describes the time it takes for an object to complete one full cycle of motion on a spring?
Sav [38]

The term period (symbol: T) describes the time it takes for an object to complete one full cycle of motion on a spring.

The formula for time is: T  = 1 / f , where f is the frequency  , f= c / λ = wave speed c (m/s) / wavelength λ (m)..

The formula describes that as the frequency of a wave increases, the time period of the wave decreases.
