Answer:17: A wave can be defined as follows: It is important to realize that a wave is quite a different object than a particle. A baseball thrown though a window transfers energy from one point to another, but this involves the movement of a material object between two points.

Explanation:

18: In this way, we classify waves into electromagnetic and mechanical waves. The main difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves is that electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to propagate whereas mechanical waves require a medium in order to propagate.

URGENT!!!!!!!<br><br> PLEASE HELP WITH THIS PHYSICS PROBLEM
Levart [38]

Explanation:

Let

x_1 = distance traveled while accelerating

x_2 = distance traveled while decelerating

The distance traveled while accelerating is given by

x_1 = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2 = \frac{1}{2}at^2

\:\:\:\:\:= \frac{1}{2}(2.5\:\text{m/s}^2)(30\:\text{s})^2

\:\:\:\:\:= 1125\:\text{m}

We need the velocity of the rocket after 30 seconds and we can calculate it as follows:

v = at = (2.5\:\text{m/s}^2)(30\:\text{s}) = 75\:\text{m/s}

This will be the initial velocity when start calculating for the distance it traveled while decelerating.

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2ax_2

0 = (75\:\text{m/s})^2 + 2(-0.65\:\text{m/s}^2)x_2

Solving for x_2, we get

x_2 = \dfrac{(75\:\text{m/s})^2}{2(0.65\:\text{m/s}^2)}

\:\:\:\:\:= 4327\:\text{m}

Therefore, the total distance x is

x = x_1 + x_2 = 1125\:\text{m} + 4327\:\text{m}

\:\:\:\:= 5452\:\text{m}

A moving walkway has a speed of .4 m/s to the east. A stationary observer sees a man walking on the walkway with a velocity of 3
SVEN [57.7K]

Explanation:

Vnet = 0.4m/s - 3.0m/s = - 2.6m/s

so the man walks 2.6m/s towards the west

Determine the ratio of the resistivity of pure water to silver?
shutvik [7]
Silver is a very good conductor, this means its resistivity is very low (from table, we can check the precise value, which is \rho_s = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m).

Pure water, instead, is a very bad conductor, this means its resistivity is very high, of order of k \Omega \cdot m (10^3 \Omega m ). Even without knowing the precise value of the pure water resistivity, we can estimate the ratio between the pure water resistivity and the silver resistivity by comparing the two orders of magnitude:
r= \frac{10^3 \Omega m}{10^{-8} \Omega m}  \sim 10^{11}

Therefore, we can say that the correct answer is
3 \cdot 10^{11} : 1

I need help on all of this
wel

dude is -2m/s, ...ettte is +2m/s

pos vel is when dudette, eg, is going in increasing x, in this case.

neg vel  is when dudette, eg, is going in decreasing x, in this case. ie she turns round and runs

zero vel is zero speed. dudette standing still

positive vel neg pos top dia

no

yes

yes

yes

yes

yes

all yes looks like ...
