What is a wave in sound and light

Physics
2 answers:
frez [133]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Light waves are electromagnetic waves while sound waves are mechanical waves. Light waves are transverse while sound waves are longitudinal. Light waves can travel in vacuum. Sound waves require a material medium to travel, and hence, cannot travel in vacuum. The speed of light in a medium is constant. (i hope i helped youuu)

The maximum force that a grocery bag can withstand without ripping is 250 n. Suppose that the bag is filled with 20 kg of grocer
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Groceries stay in the bag.

Explanation:

Given:

Maximum force = 250 N

Bag filled with = 20 kg

Lifted acceleration = 5.0\ m/s^2

Solution:

We need to calculate the exerted force on the grocery bag by using Newton's second law.

F = ma

Where:

F = Exerted force on the object.

m = Mass of the object in kg

a = Acceleration of the object in m/s^2

Now, we substitute m = 20 kg and a = 5.0\ m/s^2 in Newton's second law,

F = 20\times 5.0

F = 100\ m/s^2

Since, the exerted force on the bag is less than 250 N, the groceries will stay in the bag.

You lift a 25-kg child 0.80 m, slowly carry him 10 m to the playroom, and finally set him back down 0.80 m onto the playroom flo
maksim [4K]

To solve this problem we will apply the work theorem which is expressed as the force applied to displace a body. Considering that body strength is equivalent to weight, we will make the following considerations

\text{Mass of the child} = m = 25kg

\text{Acceleration due to gravity} = g = 9.81m/s^2

\text{Height lifted} = h = 0.80m (Upward)

Work done to upward the object

W = mgh

W = (25)(9.81)(0.8)

W = 196.2J

Horizontal Force applied while carrying 10m,

F = 0N

W = 0J

Height descended in setting the child down

h' = -0.8m (Downwoard)

W = mgh'

W = (25)(9.81)(-0.80)

W = -196.2J

For full time, assuming that the total value of work is always expressed in terms of its symbol, it would be zero, since at first it performs the same work that is later complemented in a negative way.
