Answer: for insulation of heat

Explanation:

Windows in cold countries have double glazing windows to provide a barrier against the outside temperature by creating a buffer zone between two glasses.

The air or any other gas-filled between the glasses act as an insulator and offer great resistance to outside temperature thereby maintaining the inside temperature intact.

A block of mass m is pushed a horizontal distance D from position A to position B, along a horizontal plane with friction coeffi
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The total work done by friction is -2 · μ · m · g · D

Explanation:

Hi there!

The work done by a force is calculated as follows:

W = F · d · cos θ

Where:

W = work.

F = force that does the work.

d = displacement.

θ = angle between the displacement and the force.

If the force is horizontal, as in this case, cos θ = 1

The friction force is calculated as follows:

Ffr = μ · m · g

Where:

μ = friction coefficient.

m = mass of the object.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

Then, in this case, the work done by friction when pushing the block from A to B will be:

W AB = -Ffr · D

W AB = - μ · m · g · D

Notice that the friction force is negative because it is opposite to the pushing force P.

When the block is pushed from B to A, the work done by friction will be:

W BA = Ffr · (-D)

W BA = -μ · m · g · D

Now, the displacement is negative and the friction force is positive (in the opposite direction to -P).

The total work done by friction will be:

W AB + W BA = - μ · m · g · D  - μ · m · g · D  = -2 μ · m · g · D

A _______ is a repeating disturbance or vibration that transfers or moves energy from place to place without transporting mass.
Harman [31]

Answer: wave

Explanation:

These are the basic definitions and characteristic of the terms given, which show tha the only rigth answer is the second option: wave.

1) Force is an interaction. There are four natural forces: electrostatic, gravity, strong nuclear force and weak nuclear force.

2) Wave: is a sequence of pulses or vibrations that cause the continuous transportation of energy (propagation). There is not transport of mass, only energy.

Some examples of waves are sound waves, electromagnetic waves (light, radio waves, micro waves, infrarred waves, ultraviolet waves).

3) Vacuum: is the absence of matter; empty space. Only electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum; other waves need a medium to travel.

4) Medium: any matter is a medium: a solid, the air, a liquid, all of them are media through which waves can transport its energy, depending of the wavelength.
