The line drawn connecting the crests of several waves and perpendicular to the direction of wave motion is the: <u>wavefront </u>

<u></u>

The wave front is an imaginary surface that is composed of all the points of a wave at any instant, this surface is defined as the line drawn connecting the crests of several waves and perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.

<h3>What is a wave?</h3>

In physics, it is the propagation of a perturbation of one of its properties in space, which involves a transmission of energy without displacement of mass.

A golf ball is whacked in a direction 25 degrees south of the east axis. The ball travels 125m. What are the east and north comp
Natalka [10]

<u>We are given:</u>

Direction of motion: 25 degrees south of the east axis

Distance covered  = 125 m

<u>East component of the Ball:</u>

<em>this component is denoted by green color in the image</em>

Once we drop a perpendicular from the end of the direction vector on the x-axis, we get a right angled triangle

The magnitude of the side of the triangle on the x-axis denotes the east component of the ball

Using trigonometry, we find that the east component of the ball is:

125 * Cos(25 degrees)

125 * 0.9 = 112.5 i   (here, i denotes rightward direction on the x-axis)

<u />

<u>North Component of the Ball:</u>

<em>this component is denoted by blue color in the image</em>

Using trigonometry, we find that the North component of the ball is:

125* Sin(25 degrees)  (-j)      <em>[j denotes upward movement on the y-axis, since the vector is acting downwards, we have used '-j']</em>

125 * 0.42 (-j)

52.5 (-j) =   -52.5 j

Therefore the direction vector of the ball is 112.5 i - 52.5 j

<em>where 112.5 i is the East Component and -52.5 is the North Component</em>

What pieces of information do you need to accurately describe the motion of an object?
Vlad [161]

An object's location, velocity, acceleration, and direction can all be used to define motion.

Define velocity:

Velocity and speed describe how quickly or slowly an object is moving. We frequently encounter circumstances when we must determine which of two or more moving objects is going faster. If the two are travelling on the same route in the same direction, it is simple to determine which is quicker. It is challenging to identify who is moving the quickest when their motion is in the other direction. The idea of velocity is useful in these circumstances. Learn what velocity is, how it is measured, an example of velocity, and how it differs from speed in this article.

Motion may be described using an object's position, velocity, acceleration, and direction.

A meteorite has a speed of 90.0 m/s when 850 km above the Earth. It is falling vertically (ignore air resistance) and strikes a
Schach [20]

Before it hits the sand bed, the meteorite is accelerating uniformly with g=9.80\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}, so that its speed v satisfies

v^2-{v_0}^2=-2g\Delta y

where v_0=90.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s} is its initial speed and \Delta y=(0-850)\,\mathrm{km}=-850\,\mathrm{km} is its change in altitude. Notice that we're taking the meteorite's starting position in the atmosphere to be the origin, and the downward direction to be negative. Now,

v^2-\left(-90.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2=-2\left(9.80\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(-850,000\,\mathrm m)\implies\boxed{v=4080\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}}
