Which of the following does not represent a mechanical wave?sound
waves in the ocean
waves in a wheat field
light

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The other person who answered is incorrect- the real answer is light.

Explanation:

  A mechanical wave is a wave that requires a medium. A medium is any substance that has a defined set of physical properties and can transmit energy. A medium can be a solid, liquid, or gas. Some examples of a medium include an iron bar, the ground, water, lava, air, and helium in a balloon.

  The answer is not sound because sound travels through waves through the air. If you were to put a source of sound in a container that contains no air, you would not be able to hear the sound through the container. Since sound has a wave and a medium, it is a mechanical wave.

  The answer is not waves in the ocean because, obviously, this is a wave. Its medium is the water. Since it has a wave and a medium, it is a mechanical wave.

  The answer is not waves in a wheat field because, again, this is a wave. The medium is the air. Since it has a wave and a medium, it is a mechanical wave.

  The answer is light. Light travels through electromagnetic waves. However, it does not require a medium. Light can travel not only through air and solid materials, but also through the vacuum of space. Since light does not require a medium, it is not a mechanical wave.

I hope this helps !! :)

Which statement best describes the relationship between forces?a.Magnetic and electrical forces are the most alike because they are both caused by positive and negative charges.

b. Gravitational and magnetic forces are the most alike because they are both types of charges that occur in nature.

c. Nuclear and magnetic forces are the most alike because they are both related to mass and weight.

d. Strong nuclear force is most like electric because they are both related to distance.

Answers

The statement which best describes the relationship between forces is the last option represented above d. Strong nuclear force is most like electric because they are both related to distance. According to the general characteristics, it can't be caused by positive or negative charges and does not relates to mass and weight.

Answer:

d) strong nuclear force is most like electric because they are both realted to distance.

What is the exact time of a full earth rotation?

Answers

Partyrockchickk is on the right track,but 23:56:04 is not exactly exact.
23h 56m 4.0906s is closer, but stillnot exact. You'll never see an 'exact'
number written anywhere. Firstbecause it doesn't work out to an exact
decimal of anything, and secondbecause it changes ! The Good Friday
earthquake in Alaska changed it,the Fukushima earthquake changed it,
the Nepal earthquake changed it,and the daily drag of the tides changes
it by something like 0.001second every century.

One thing's for sure:  It is definitely not 24 hours.


The exact time is  23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds. hope this helps hun

A source of voltage produces an electric current by _____.A. increasing resistance in the conducting wire

B. increasing the speed of electrons that are flowing

C. creating a potential difference so electrons can flow

Answers

The correct choice is

C. creating a potential difference so electrons can flow.

An electron moves from low potential to high potential. so it moves only when there is difference in potential between two locations. A source of voltage creates a potential difference for the electron to move. So the correct choice is C.

c.creating a potential difference so electrons can flow

An electroscope is a device that detects charge on objects that touch it or are brought near it. John rubs a piece of cotton fabric on a plastic rod and then touches the rod to the electroscope.What methods of charging does John use?

Answers

The answer is Static Electricity. When you say static electricity, there is a certain imbalance in the particles present on the surface of the material. That is why the electroscope was able to detect static electricity from the piece of cloth and plastic rod

Answer:

John charges the rod through friction, then charges the electroscope through conduction. D on edg2020

Explanation:

A transport truck pulls on a trailer with a force of 600N [E]. The trailer pulls on the transport truck with a forceA)of zero
b) of less than 600 N is the truck is slowing down
c) equal to 600 N only if the truck is moving at constant velocity
d) equal to 600 N no matter what the acceleration of the truck
e) greater than 600 N if the truck is accelerating

Answers

A transport truck pulls on a trailer with a force of 600N [E]. The trailer pulls on the transport truck with a force equal to 600 N no matter what the acceleration of the truck. Option c is correct.

What is Newton's third law of motion?

According to Newton's third law of motion, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. As well as the action and reaction are always acted in pairs.

Based on the law of action-reaction,

A transport truck pulls on a trailer with a force of 600N [E]. The trailer pulls on the transport truck with a force greater than 600 N if the truck is accelerating.

If the truck is moving at constant velocity the acceleration is zero resulting in no force exerted by the truck on the trailer

The force by which the transport truck pulls on a trailer is equal to the force by which the trailer pulls the truck.

F₁ is the force by which the transport truck pulls on a trailer

F₂ is the force by which the trailer pulls the truck

F₁=F₂

A 600N [E] pulling force is applied by a transport vehicle to a trailer. Regardless of the transport truck's acceleration, the trailer pulls on it with a force of 600 N.
