Answer:

a. Longitudinal waves

Explanation:

A longitudinal wave is a wave in which the propagation of the wave is in the same direction as the displacement of the medium carrying the wave.

It is also a type of wave in which the direction that the wave moves is parallel to the direction that the particles of the medium (which carry the wave) move.

Examples of longitudinal waves include seismic waves, and sound waves.

How to derive the fourth equation of motion?
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

To derive the fourth equation of motion, first we have to consider the equation for acceleration and then to rearrange it. or v2 = u2 + 2as and this equation of motion can be used to find the final velocity or the distance travelled if the other values are given.

Explanation:

v= u + at

s =( u + v ) t /2

s = ut + at2/2

v2 = u2 + 2as

A molecular cloud fragments as it collapses because Choose one: A. the interstellar wind is stronger in some places than others.
kondaur [170]

The cause for a molecular cloud forming fragments when it collapses is indicated correctly by option D. density variations from place to place grow larger as the cloud collapses.

Molecular cloud:

A molecular cloud, also known as a stellar nursery, is a specific kind of interstellar cloud, whose density and size allow the development of molecules, absorption nebulae, and H II regions. In contrast, some regions of the interstellar medium mostly consist of ionized gas.

Molecular clouds are cold, dense areas of space where stars form. The cloud collapses into a proto-star when the gravitational force pulling it in outweighs the internal pressure pushing it in.

When a molecular cloud collapses, it is observed that the density varies from place to place with the variation increasing with collapse. As a result, the collapse is characterized by fragmentation of the cloud.

Thus the correct option is: D. density variations from place to place grow larger as the cloud collapses.

3. Calculate the wavelength of wave that has a frequency of 4.75 x 1012Hz.
Klio2033 [76]
  • Frequency=v=4.75×10^12Hz
  • Wavelength=?

We know

\boxed{\sf \lambda=\dfrac{C}{V}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto \lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8ms^{-1}}{4.75\times 10^{12}s^{-1}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto \lambda=0.631\times 10^{-4}m

\\ \sf\longmapsto \lambda=6.31\times 10^{-5}m
