Answer:

Transverse Waves do not require a medium to travel

Explanation:

Two major types of energy waves are longitudinal waves and transverse waves. A longitudinal wave is a wave where the particles of matter in the medium move in a parallel direction to the motion of the wave. This shows the energy transport and particle movement. The particles of matter only move temporarily. A wave is transferred energy it does not transfer particles of matter. A transverse wave is a wave in which the particles of matter in the medium move in a perpendicular direction to the motion of the wave.

A blue ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 21.8 m/s, from a height of 0.9 meters above the ground. 2.7 seconds after
worty [1.4K]
I can think of two possible and logical questions for the problem given. First, you can calculate for the maximum height reached by the blue ball. Second, you can compute the length of time for the two balls to be at the same height. If so, the solution are as follows:

When the object is thrown upwards or when the object is dropped from a height, the only force acting upon it is the gravitational force. Because of this, it simplifies equations of motion.

1. For the maximum height, the equation is
H = v₀²/2g
where
v₀ is the initial speed
g is the acceleration due to gravity equal to 9.81 m/s²

For the blue ball, v₀ = 21.8 m/s. Substituting the values:
H = (21.8 m/s)²/2(9.81m/s²)
H = 24.22 m
The maximum height reached by the blue ball is 24.22 m + 0.9 = 25.12 m.

2. For this, you equate the y values of both balls:

y for red ball = y for blue ball
v₀t + 0.5gt² = v₀t + 0.5gt²
(10.4 m/s)t + 0.5(9.81 m/s²)(t²) + 26.6 m = (21.8 m/s)t + 0.5(9.81 m/s²)(t²) + 0.9 m
Solving for t, 
t = 2.25 seconds

Thus, the two balls would be at the same height after 2.25 seconds.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

<u>The magnitude of the friction force is 8197.60 N</u>

Explanation:

Using the definition of the centripetal force we have:

\Sigma F=ma_{c}=m\frac{v^{2}}{R}

Where:

  • m is the mass of the car
  • v is the speed
  • R is the radius of the curvature

Now, the force acting in the motion is just the friction force, so we have:

F_{f}=m\frac{v^{2}}{R}

F_{f}=2100\frac{18^{2}}{83}

F_{f}=8197.60 \: N

<u>Therefore the magnitude of the friction force is 8197.60 N</u>

I hope it helps you!
