Answer:
Transverse
Explanation:
There are two types of waves, according to the direction of their oscillation:
- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the direction of the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. Examples of transverse waves are electromagnetic waves
- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the direction of the oscillation is parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.
Light waves corresponds to the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which includes all the different types of electromagnetic waves (which consist of oscillations of electric and magnetic fields that are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave): therefore, they are transverse waves.
Answer:
Sledgehammer A has more momentum
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of Sledgehammer A = 3 Kg
Swing speed = 1.5 m/s
Mass of Sledgehammer B = 4 Kg
Swing speed = 0.9 m/s
Find:
More momentum
Computation:
Momentum = mv
Momentum sledgehammer A = 3 x 1.5
Momentum sledgehammer A = 4.5 kg⋅m/s
Momentum sledgehammer B = 4 x 0.9
Momentum sledgehammer B = 3.6 kg⋅m/s
Sledgehammer A has more momentum
For the given question above, I think there is an associated choice of answer for it. However, the answer for this is London Dispersion Forces. <span>Dipole-dipole forces and hydrogen bonding are much stronger, leading to higher melting and boiling points.</span>
Linear momentum of a truck is 1,50,000 kg.m/s
Explanation:
Linear momentum is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. It is a vector quantity, which have a magnitude and a direction.
Linear momentum is a property of an object which is in motion with respect to a reference point (i.e. any object changing its position with respect to the reference point).
It's SI units are kg.m/s
Linear momentum is a vector quantity.
Linear momentum formula (p) = mass × velocity
Given data mass = 5000 kg ; velocity = 30 m/s
P = 5000 × 30
Linear momentum p= 1,50,000 kg.m/s
Answer:
a)1815Joules b) 185Joules
Explanation:
Hooke's law states that the extension of a material is directly proportional to the applied force provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded. Mathematically;
F = ke where;
F is the applied force
k is the elastic constant
e is the extension of the material
From the formula, k = F/e
F1/e1 = F2/e2
If a force of 60N causes an extension of 0.5m of the string from its equilibrium position, the elastic constant of the spring will be ;
k = 60/0.5
k = 120N/m
a) To get the work done in stretching the spring 5.5m from its position,
Work done by the spring = 1/2ke²
Given k = 120N/m, e = 5.5m
Work done = 1/2×120×5.5²
Work done = 60× 5.5²
Work done = 1815Joules
b) work done in compressing the spring 1.5m from its equilibrium position will be gotten using the same formula;
Work done = 1/2ke²
Work done =1/2× 120×1.5²
Works done = 60×1.5²
Work done = 135Joules
