A boy shooting a rubber band across the classroom -->
Elastic potential energy transformed into kinetic energy
<span>The initial energy is the energy stored in the muscles of the boy's arm, which is elastic potential energy. This is converted into motion of the rubber, therefore kinetic energy
A child going down a slide on a playground --> </span>Gravitational potential energy transformed into kinetic energy
On top of the slide, all the energy of the child is gravitational potential energy due to its height with respect to the ground (E=mgh). when it moves down the slide, this is converted into kinetic energy, because the child acquires a speed v (E=1/2 mv^2)

Rubbing your hands together to warm them on a cold day --> </span>Kinetic energy being transformed into thermal energy <span>
When rubbing hands, we are moving them (kinetic energy), and this energy raises the temperature of the hand's surface (thermal energy)
Turning on a battery operated light --> </span>
Chemical potential energy transformed into radiant energy <span>
A battery works by mean of chemical reactions (chemical potential energy), producing light (so, emitting energy by radiation, i.e. radiant energy)
Using a dc electric motor --> </span> Electrical energy transformed into kinetic energy<span>
A dc electric motor works using currents (so, electrical energy), and the energy produced can be used for example to accelerate a car (kinetic energy)
Using a gas power heater to warm a room --> </span>Chemical potential energy transformed into thermal energy
<span>A gas power heater burns gases (so, chemical reaction, i.e. chemical potential energy) to raise the temperature of the room (thermal energy)
Using a hand crank generator to produce electric current --> Kinetic energy transformed into electrical energy
In a hand-crank generator, the handle is being rotated (kinetic energy) in order to produce an electric current (electrical energy)
Using the light in your room that is plugged into the wall --> </span>Electrical energy transformed into radiant energy
<span>The lamp works by using electrical current flowing into a resistor (electrical energy) and it produces light, so it emits energy by electromagnetic radiation (radiant energy)

Answer:
A) Propagation of pressure fluctuations in a medium
B) air is the medium in which the wave is transported,
Explanation:
Part A.
A sound wave is a longitudinal oscillation of the molecules that forms in a material medium, they can be solid, liquid or gases, therefore the wave propagates in the same direction as the oscillation of the particles.
The most correct answer is:
* Propagation of pressure fluctuations in a medium
Part b
air is the medium in which the wave is transported, otherwise it cannot propagate
For this case we can write each one of the vectors in the following way:
This means that the x-axis is defined as positive towards the west.
Then, the resulting vector is:
Answer:
Displacement vectors of 10 m west and 14 m west make a resultant vector that is 24 m west
Society shapes us through our gender, it dictates what jobs would be suitable for us, what we should wear, how we should look, who we are to socialise with and what is acceptable or not.
