Answer: Mechanical waves carry energy through a medium; electromagnetic waves carry energy through media and space.
Explanation:
<u>The waves which require medium to travel are known as mechanical waves. </u>The waves carry energy forward by compression and rarefaction that is by changing density /pressure of medium particles.
<u>Electromagnetic waves can transfer energy through space as well as medium. </u>In an electromagnetic wave, electric field generates magnetic field and magnetic field generates electric field. Electric field and magnetic field are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of motion.
Discrete systems are those systems in which are made up of finite component particles a which are non-homogeneously arranged such that no smooth variation exists. It is such that all constituent particles have properties which vary randomly. They are direct opposite to continuous systems, which are smooth arrangement of particles which cannot be individually taken into consideration.

By definition we have that
force=dP/dt,
where
p is momentum
so
<span>momentum is force*time
p= 15*3 = 45 Ns , west.
</span><span>the change in momentum of the object is 45 N.s</span>
