Transverse waves travel perpendicular to neighboring wave motion like a slinky while longitudinal waves depend on the displacement of a medium which include sound waves.
Two segments of a comet are head and tail.
Head is main part of comet. Depending on how comet was created head can be made out of metal (such as iron) or stone. Also, head contains a lot of dust and water ice. When comet comes closer to Sun it's surface warms and ice starts to melt. Due to low pressure in space it almost instantly evaporates creating water vapour. This vapour causes the particles of dust to raise above surface of head and to fall back of the head.
Tail is most viewed part of a comet. It best something that we can see with naked eye and that helps us to distinguish comet and all other celestial bodies. Tail is made out of two other tails. First is dust tail. It is created when dust particles rise from head of a comet and fall behing it. Gravity of a comet causes for these particles to follow head. Dust tail is always located opposite to direction of movement. Second tail is ionic tail. When solar particles (such as solar wind) hit comet they ionize atoms and molecules. This causes them to glow and produce light which we can see. Ionic tail is always opposite to direction in which Sun is located. When comet is far from Sun dust and ionic tail lay in same position. When comet is close to Sun dust and ionic tail not always lay in same position.
Answer:
P = 5880 J
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of the block, m = 30 kg
The block is sitting at a height of 20 m.
The block will have gravitational potential energy. The formula for gravitational potential energy is given by :
So, the required potential energy is equal to 5880 J.
Answer:
1) 5.52 cm , C) 5.5 cm
Explanation:
When a measurement is carried out, in addition to the value of the magnitude, the error or uncertainty of the measurement must occur, in a direct measurement with an instrument the uncertainty is equal to the appreciation of the instrument.
Uniform see the errors by the number of significant figures days, in this cases they are two decimals for which the appreciation of the instrument ± - 0.01
now we can analyze the measurements made
1) 5.52 cm. Validate. It is a valid measurement is within the uncertainty range
2) 6.63 cm. It does not validate. It is out of the error range
3) 5.5 cm Valid. It is within the given error range,
4) 5.93 cm Not Valid. It is out of the error range.
