What is an example of an mechanical wave?
sound
How do you convert sound energy into mechanical energy using simple machines?
you can convert sound energy into mechanical energy by yelling into an empty plastic water jug. You will feel the walls of the container vibrating because of the sound waves hitting the walls of the jug. The walls vibrating are mechanical energy given to it by the sound energy. Sound energy is just an air wave. when the air waves run into something that vibrates along with it, the vibration of the thing is mechanical energy
Is Light is an example of a mechanical wave?
No. Sound and ocean waves are.
What is non mechanical wave?
Non mechanical waves are Eletro magnetic waves. We can devide 2 waves. 1 is mechanical waves & 2 is electromagnetic waves. For example Sound is a mechanical wave & Light is an electromagnetic wave.
What do mechanical waves carry?
Mostly energy, but they also carry a small amount of momentum and, in some cases, angular momentum.
Sound waves are examples of what?
sound waves are a example of mechanical waves
What is an example of an mechanical wave?
sound
What are the example of mechanical waves?
water waves on a shore, sound waves, earth quakes.
What is an example mechanical waves?
Ocean waves, seismic waves, and sound waves are some examples.
How are em waves different from mechanical waves?
mechanical waves need a medium to travel through, electromagnetic waves do not. Electromagnetic waves can travel through space, mechanical waves can not.:PElectromagnetic waves do not require a medium, but mechanical waves do.
Examples of Mechanical Energy to Sound Energy?
First of all, sound waves are mechanical energy. Secondly, anything that makes noise because it is moving would be an example of mechanical energy turning into "sound energy;" like a car going down the road, a gun shot, or somebody slapping their palm against their forehead.

No. Sound and ocean waves are.

What process is energy transferred when sound waves travel through the air?
Mechanical energy
Do mechanical waves need a medium to transfer energy?
Yes. For example, sound needs media (air, water, etc.) to propagate.
What is non mechanical wave?
Non mechanical waves are Eletro magnetic waves. We can devide 2 waves. 1 is mechanical waves & 2 is electromagnetic waves. For example Sound is a mechanical wave & Light is an electromagnetic wave.
Is sound waves mechanical or waves?
Mechanical
