Answer:

1.) Waves carry energy through empty space or through a medium without transporting matter. While all waves can transmit energy through a medium, certain waves can also transmit energy through empty space. ... When waves travel through a medium, the particles of the medium are not carried along with the wave.

2.) Mechanical Waves are waves which propagate through a material medium (solid, liquid, or gas) at a wave speed which depends on the elastic and inertial properties of that medium. There are two basic types of wave motion for mechanical waves: longitudinal waves and transverse waves. Longitudinal waves vibrating in the direction of propagation while Transverse waves vibrate at right angles to the direction of its propagation.

3.) They can carry a little energy or a lot of energy. They can be transverse or longitudinal. However, all waves have common properties—amplitude, wavelength, frequency, and speed. Amplitude describes how far the medium in a wave moves.

I hope this helps!

What are the types of energy?​
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Energy exists in many different forms. Examples of these are: light energy, heat energy, mechanical energy, gravitational energy, electrical energy, sound energy, chemical energy, nuclear or atomic energy and so on. Each form can be converted or changed into the other forms.

A small metal ball with a mass of m = 62.0 g is attached to a string of length l = 1.85 m. It is held at an angle of θ = 48.5° w
notka56 [123]

The distance x will the ball land after flies off with a horizontal initial velocity  is 3.0635 m.

<h3>What is mechanical energy?</h3>

The mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy of an object at any instant of time.

M.E = KE +PE

A small metal ball with a mass of m = 62.0 g is attached to a string of length l = 1.85 m. It is held at an angle of θ = 48.5° with respect to the vertical.

The ball is then released. When the rope is vertical, the ball collides head-on and perfectly elastically with an identical ball originally at rest. This second ball flies off with a horizontal initial velocity from a height of h = 3.76 m, and then later it hits the ground.

The conservation of energy principle states that total mechanical energy remains conserved in all situations where there is no external force acting on the system.

Kinetic energy  = Potential energy

1/2 mv² =mgh₁

The velocity at the bottom, when the height h = 5m, is

v= √2gh₁...................(1)

The vertical height h₁ = l- lcosθ

h₁ = l- lcosθ

h₁ = 1.85 - 1.85cos48.5°

h₁ =0.6241 m

Putting the values in equation (1), we get

v = √2x 9.81 x0.6241

v = 3.499 m/s

The horizontal distance traveled is

x = vt

x = v x √2h/g

Plug the values, we get

x =  3.499 x √2x3.76 / 9.81

x = 3.0635 m

Thus, the horizontal distance ball travels is  3.0635 m.

Two billiard balls move toward each other on a table. The mass of the number three ball, m1, is 5 g with a velocity of 3 m/s. Th
Ymorist [56]

This question involves the concepts of the law of conservation of momentum and velocity.

The velocity of the eight ball is "5.7 m/s".

According to the law of conservation of momentum:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m₁ = mass of number three ball = 5 g

m₂ = mass of the eight ball = 6 g

u₁ = velocity of the number three ball = 3 m/s

u₂ = velocity of the eight ball = - 1 m/s (negative sign due to opposite direction)

v₁ = final velocity of the three number ball = - 5 m/s

v₂ = final velocity of the eight ball = ?

Therefore,

(5 g)(3 m/s) + (6 g)(- 1 m/s) = (5 g)(- 5 m/s) + (6 g)(v₂)

v_2=\frac{34\ g.m/s}{6\ g}\\\\

<u>v₂ = 5.7 m/s</u>

<u></u>
