Answer:

medium

Examples:

A medium is a thing that the sound wave would travel through, like sound waves traveling through air. A mechanical wave cannot travel without a medium, like if the wave were trying to travel through a vacuum.

The ball has 7.35 joules of potential energy at position B. At position A, all of the energy changes to kinetic energy. The velo

I assume that the ball is stationary (v=0) at point B, so its total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to 7.35 J. 
At point A, all this energy has converted into kinetic energy, which is:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
And since K=7.35 J, we can find the velocity, v:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 7.35 J}{1.5 kg} }=3.1 m/s

   This is a simple matter of division. I also suspect it's an exercise in scientific notation, so here is how you divide in scientific notation:

   9.6 x 10^6 m / 3x10^8 m/s

   First, divide the significands like you would normally.
 9.6 / 3 = 3.2

   And subtract the exponent. So
 6 - 8 = -2

   So the answer is 3.2 x 10^-2
 And since the significand is less than 10 and at least 1, we don't need to normalize it.

   So it takes 3.2x10^-2 seconds for the radio signal to reach the satellite.</span>
