d. both a and b

Explanation:

Seismic waves are both transverse and compressional or longitudinal waves.

A seismic wave is an elastic wave that causes a sudden disturbance in earth materials.

Seismic waves are both longitudinal and transverse waves.
There are two main types of seismic waves which are the surface and body waves.
The surface waves runs on the earth surface. These are the rayleigh and love waves.
The surface waves causes damages on the earth surface as they are both longitudinal and transverse.
Body waves moves within the earth surface. They are p-waves and s-waves.
P-waves are longitudinal or compressional waves that propagates within the earth surface.
S-waves are transverse waves that moves perpendicularly to their direction of propagation.

Which of these processes are chemical reactions

White raven [17]

Explanation:

In chemical reactions, chemical changes occur.
Atoms are simply rearranged and new bonds are formed.
Chemical reactions are driven by a need for atoms to attain stability in their structure.
In all chemical reactions, a reactant or reactants gives new product i.e new substances are formed.
Most these reactions are not easily reversible.
They are usually accompanied by the release of energy.

The density of a material in CGS system of units is 4g cm-³. In a system of units in which unit of length is 10 cm and unit of m

butalik [34]

$\sf\underline{Solution:}$

Here , the density of the material is 4g cm³ but it is not given in CGS system.

$\sf{As\:we\:know\:that:}$

$\sf\bold{Density=}$ $\sf\dfrac{Mass}{Volume}$

$\space$

$\sf{Now,according \: to \:the\:question:}$

$\sf\small{Density\:of\:the\:material=4}$ $\sf\dfrac{g}{cm^2}$

$\space$

$\sf{It\:is\:given\:that:}$

In the system of units the mass is 100gram.

$\space$

Hence,

$\sf{The\:mass\:unit\:for\:4g=}$ $\sf\dfrac{4}{100}$ $\sf{units}$

$\space$

In the system of units,the length is 10cm.

Henceforth,

$\sf\small{The\:length \:for\:1cm\:units=}$ $\sf\dfrac{1}{10}$ $\sf{units}$

$\space$

☆ Substitute the required values in the given formula-

$\sf\purple{Density=}$ $\sf\dfrac\purple{Mass}\purple{volume}$

$\space$

$\sf\underline\bold{Density\:of\:the\:material:}$

= $\sf\dfrac{4/100}{1/10^3}$ $\sf\bold{units}$

$\space$

= $\sf\dfrac{4/100}{1/1000}$ $\sf\bold{units}$

$\space$

= $\sf\dfrac{4000}{100}$ $\sf\bold{units}$

$\space$

$\sf\underline\bold\blue{=40\:units}$

$\sf\small{Therefore,option\:2nd\:is\:correct!}$
