How does a wave get taller as

1 answer:

4 0

The reason why a wave get taller as it gets closer to shore is that the shallow water at the bottom of the wave makes the wave length smaller. Option B

A wave is a disturbance that occurs along a medium which transmits energy. Now we now that waves travel from place to place. The horizontal distance that is travelled by a wave is what we call the wavelength of the wave.

As the wave approaches the shore, the wave tends to slow down because it is dragged from beneath. In the process, the wave grows taller. Thus, the reason why a wave get taller as it gets closer to shore is that the shallow water at the bottom of the wave makes the wave length smaller. Option B

If 1,000 mL = 1 L, which of the following are possible conversion factors for liters and milliliters? Check all that apply.

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Two conversion factors:

$1=\dfrac{1L}{1,000ml}\\ \\ \\ 1=\dfrac{1,000mL}{1L}$

Explanation:

You can create two possible conversion factors, one to convert from mL to L, and one to convert from L to mL

a) From mL to L

To convert mL to L you need to multiply by a conversion factor that has mL on the denominator and L in the numerator.

Your starting point is: $1,000mL=1L$

Then, divide both sides by 1,000mL (this will be on the denominator of the fraction);

$1,000mL=1L\\\\ \\\dfrac{1,000ml}{1,000mL}=\dfrac{1L}{1,000mL}\\ \\ \\ 1=\dfrac{1L}{1,000mL}$

b) From L to mL

Divide both sides by 1 L:

$1,000mL=1L\\\\ \\\dfrac{1,000ml}{1L}=\dfrac{1L}{1L}\\ \\ \\ 1=\dfrac{1,000mL}{1L}$

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Reasonable Second step- $N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}(g)\rightarrow N_{2}(g)+H_{2}O(g)$

Explanation:

The given single step chemical reaction is as follows.

$2H_{2}(g)+2NO \rightarrow 2H_{2}O(g)+N_{2}(g)$

Suppose a two-step mechanism is proposed for this reaction,

The reaction occured in two steps they are as follows.

$Step -1:H_{2}(g)+2NO \rightarrow N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}O(g)$

$Step-2:N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}(g)\rightarrow N_{2}(g)+H_{2}O(g)$
