Waves come in two kinds, longitudinal and transverse. Transverse waves are like those on water, with the surface going up and down, and longitudinal waves are like of those of sound, consisting of alternating compressions and rarefactions in a medium

The x vector component of a displacement vector has a magnitude of 146 m and points along the negative x axis. The y vector comp
larisa86 [58]

Answer:  

a) the magnitude of r is  184.62

b) the direction is 37.74° south of the negative x-axis

   

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

as illustrated in the image blow;

To find the the magnitude of r, we will use the Pythagoras theorem

r² = y² + x²

r = √( y² + x²)

we substitute

r = √((-113)² + (-146)²)

r = √(12769 + 21316 )

r = √(34085 )

r = 184.62

Therefore, the magnitude of r is  184.62

To find its direction, we need to find ∅

from SOH CAH TOA

tan = opposite / adjacent

tan∅ = -113 / -146

tan∅ = 0.77397

∅ = tan⁻¹( 0.77397 )

∅ = 37.74°

Therefore, the direction is 37.74° south of the negative x-axis

Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by _______ objects that travel in straight paths. *
Gelneren [198K]

Answer: Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by luminous objects that travel in straight paths.

Explanation:

We can define "radiation" as the transmision of energy trough waves or particles.

Particularly, light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, so the "tiny particles" of light are discharged by a radiating object, particularly we can be more explicit and call it a luminous object, in this way we are being specific about the nature of the radiation of the object.
