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

What single resistor could replace 20 Ω, 30 Ω and 50 Ω resistors which have been joined in series ?
MrRa [10]

Answer:

sine the resistors are connected in series, we could add the sum and that single value replaces the individual resistors in series. therefore, 100ohm resistor can do.

Work out the current through an electric heater with a power of 1.38kW if it uses the 230V mains supply.
love history [14]

Answer:

I = 6 A

Explanation:

Given that,

Power of an electric heatr, P = 1.38 kW

The voltage of the mains supply, V = 230 V

We need to find the current through the heater. The electric power in terms of  voltage and current is given by :

P=V\times I\\\\I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{1.38\times 10^3}{230}\\\\I=6\ A

So, the current through an electric heater is 6 A.

How much power does an Ox pulling a plow 20 m cross a field, exerting 120J of work over a period of 15 s?​
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

8W

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance covered  = 20m

Work done  = 120J

Time  = 15s

Unknown:

How much power does the Ox exerts  = ?

Solution:

Power is the rate at which work is being done

  Power  = \frac{Work done }{time}  

 Power exerted by ox  = \frac{120}{15}   = 8W

What is the net force needed to accelerate a 5 kg object at 3 m/s2? Suppose that in this situation you discovered that there is
Rudik [331]

The Force need to accelerate the object is by 3 m/s² is 15 N.  Suppose a friction force of 5 N acts on the motion of the object, the force needed to be applied to the object is 20 N

<h3>Force:</h3>

This can be defined as the product of the mass and the acceleration of a body. The S.I unit of force is kgm/s or Newton(N)

To calculate the force needed to accelerate a mass of 5 kg object at 3 m/s² we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • F = ma........ equation 1

Where:

  • F = Net force needed to accelerate the object
  • m = mass of the object
  • a = acceleration of the object

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 5 kg
  • a = 3 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • F = 5(3)
  • F = 15 N

Suppose a frictional force of 5 N acts on the motion, The force applied is

  • F = F'+ma............ Equation 2

Where:

  • F = Frictional force = 5N

Substitute into equation 2

  • F = 5(3)+5
  • F' = 15+5
  • F = 20 N.

Hence, The Force need to accelerate the object is by 3 m/s² is 15 N. Suppose a friction force of 5 N acts on the motion of the object, the force needed to be applied to the object is 20 N
