The main difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves is that electromagnetic waves are the propagation of the energy whereas the mechanical waves are the physical interaction of the waves due to the vibrations.

____________occurs when an object travels in a curved path.
labwork [276]

Answer:

Acceleration

Explanation:

can you mark me  brainlies

So, if an object travels in a curved path, it changes velocity, and, thus, accelerates. This acceleration must be tied to a force. ... Therefore, whenever an object travels in a curved path, there must be an unbalanced force acting upon it. It is important to understand that all this may occur without a change in speed.t

During an investigation, a scientist heated 123.6 g of copper carbonate till it decomposed to form a black residue. The total ma
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

See below explanation

Explanation:

The correspondent chemical reaction for copper carbonate decomposed by heat is:

CuCO₃ (s) → CuO (s) + CO₂ (g)

Considering all molar mass (MM) for each element ( we consider rounded numbers) :

MM CuCO₃ = 123 g/mol

MM CuO = 79 g/mol

MM CO₂ = 44 g/mol

Statement mentions that scientis heated 123.6 g of CuCO₃ (almost a MM), until a black residue is obtained, which weights 79.6 g : this solid residue is formed by CuO, and the remaining mass (approximatelly 44 g) belongs to teh second product, this is, CO₂; as it is a gas compund, it is not certainly included on the solid residue.

So, law of conservation mass is true for this case, since: 123.6 g = 79.6 g + 44 g. As explained, on the solid residue, we don not include the 44 g, which  "escaped" from our system, since it is a gas compound (CO₂)

A transverse wave on a long horizontal rope with a
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is related to its wavelength and  speed by the equation

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where

f is the frequency

v is the speed of the wave

\lambda is the wavelength

For the wave in this problem,

v = 2 m/s

\lambda=8 m

So the frequency is

f=\frac{2}{8}=0.25 Hz

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency, so for this wave:

T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.25}=4 s

This means that the wave takes 4 seconds to complete one full cycle.

Therefore, the time taken for the wave to go from a point with displacement +A to a point with displacement -A is half the period, therefore for this wave:

t=\frac{T}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2 s
