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.

An astronaut is standing on the surface of a planetary satellite that has a radius of 1.74 × 10^6 m and a mass of 7.35 × 10^22 k
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

2.87 km/s

Explanation:

radius of planet, R = 1.74 x 10^6 m

Mass of planet, M = 7.35 x 10^22 kg

height, h = 2.55 x 10^6 m

G = 6.67 x 106-11 Nm^2/kg^2

Use teh formula for acceleration due to gravity

g=\frac{GM}{R^{2}}

g=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 7.35\times 10^{22}}{1.74^{2}\times 10^{12}}

g = 1.62 m/s^2

initial velocity, u = ?, h = 2.55 x 10^6 m , final velocity, v = 0

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}-2gh

0 = v² - 2 x 1.62 x 2.55 x 10^6

v² = 8262000

v = 2874.37 m/s

v = 2.87 km/s

Thus, the initial speed should be 2.87 km/s.
