Mechanical waves are those waves that  require a material medium for propagation.

<h3>What are mechanical waves?</h3>

Generally, we define a wave as a disturbance along a medium which transfers energy. It then follows that waves move energy from one point to another.

Waves can be classified as;

  • Mechanical waves
  • Electromagnetic waves

Mechanical waves are those waves that  require a material medium for propagation such as sound, and waves on a strings.

Answer:

<em>A mechanical wave is a wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum. Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. </em>

<u>A sound wave is an example of a mechanical wave. </u>

??? True or false. An element can only exist as an individual atom.
KengaRu [80]
I think it's false because Oxygen is diatomic so it's found as O2 which means that it has two atoms of itself.

When an object travels a large distance in a small amount of time, the object's speed is
Kisachek [45]
If I were to go from the United States to China in one second, that's a large distance in an incredibly short time. I'd say that's pretty fast.

If I were to go from my room to the door of my room in a year, then that would be unbearably slow.

Calculate the propellant mass required to launch a 2000 kg spacecraft from a 180 km circular orbit on a Hohmann transfer traject
Finger [1]

Answer:

t = 12,105.96 sec

Explanation:

Given data:

weight of spacecraft is 2000 kg

circular orbit distance to saturn = 180 km

specific impulse = 300 sec

saturn orbit around the sun R_2 = 1.43 *10^9 km

earth orbit around the sun R_1= 149.6 * 10^ 6 km

time required for the mission is given as t

t = \frac{2\pi}{\sqrt{\mu_sun}} [\frac{1}{2}(R_1 + R_2)]^{3/2}

where

\mu_{sun} is gravitational parameter of sun =  1.32712 x 10^20 m^3 s^2.t = \frac{2\pi}{\sqrt{ 1.32712 x 10^{20}}} [\frac{1}{2}(149.6 * 10^ 6 +1.43 *10^9 )]^{3/2}

t = 12,105.96 sec
