An electromagnetic , transverse,  wave is  a wave that goes up and down, such as light that does not need a medium to travel
While compressional, longitudinal wave such as sound require a medium to travel and can be compressed

15) A 328-kg car moving at 19.1 m/s in the +x direction hits from behind a second car moving at 13 m/s in the same direction. If
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of first car

M1= 328kg

The car is moving in positive direction of x axis with velocity

U1 = 19.1m/s

Velocity of second car

U2 = 13m/s, in the same direction as the first car..

Mass of second car

M2 = 790kg

Velocity of second car after collision

V2 = 15.1 m/s

Velocity of first car after collision

V1 =?

This is an elastic collision,

And using the conservation of momentum principle

Momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision

P(before) = P(after)

M1•U1 + M2•U2 = M1•V1 + M2•V2

328 × 19.1 + 790 × 13 = 328 × V1 + 790 × 15.1

16534.8 = 328•V1 + 11929

328•V1 = 16534.8—11929

328•V1 = 4605.8

V1 = 4605.8/328

V1 = 14.04 m/s

The velocity of the first car after collision is 14.04 m/s

Which planet has the greatest mass?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Jupiter

Explanation:

The largest planet in our solar system by far is Jupiter, which beats out all the other planets in both mass and volume. Jupiter's mass is more than 300 times that of Earth, and its diameter, at 140,000 km, is about 11 times Earth's diameter.

A motorist drives north for 36.0 minutes at 96.0 km/h and then stops for 15.0 minutes. He then continues north, traveling 130 km
Over [174]

Answer:

a) d=187.6km

b)v=61.5km/h

Explanation:

First we convert our minutes to hours so we work always in the same units.

36min=36min(\frac{1h}{60min})=0.6h

15min=15min(\frac{1h}{60min})=0.25h

Where we used the fact that 1 hour are 60 min, thus the multiplying factor is equal to 1 (not altering the time, just changing the units).

a) On the first part the motorist travels a distance d_1=v_1t_1=(96km/h)(0.6h)=57.6km, and on the second part he travels d_2=130km.

The total displacement is d=d_1+d_2=57.6km+130km=187.6km

b) The average velocity is the relation between the total displacement and the time taken to cover it. Our total time is t=0.6h+0.25h+2.2h=3.05h, thus we have:

v=\frac{187.6km}{3.05h}=61.5km/h
