Are moving up and down.

As a transverse wave travels through a rope from left to right, the parts of the rope <u>are moving up and down</u>.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Transverse waves occur when a disturbance causes oscillations perpendicular to the propagation, that is the direction of energy transfer.
<em><u>Particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction the transverse wave itself is moving. For example, if the wave is moving to the right, the particles of the medium are moving up and down.</u></em>
<em><u>Therefore, as a transverse wave travels through a rope from left to right, the parts of the rope are moving up and down.</u></em>

An orchestra is practicing a piece that is to be played at an allegro tempo. The conductor sets a metronome at 160 beats per min

omeli [17]

Answer:

375 ms

Explanation:

the frequency of metronome , f = 160 beats per minute

f = 160 /60 beats per sec

f = 2.67 beats /s

the period of a single beat , T = 1/f

T = 1/2.67 s

T = 0.375 s = 375 ms

the period of a single beat is 375 ms

In what order does light pass through structures of the eye? lens, cornea, retina cornea, pupil, lens pupil, iris, lens pupil, c

Mrrafil [7]

Answer: Light passes through the front of the eye (cornea) to the lens. The cornea and the lens help to focus the light rays onto the back of the eye (retina). The cells in the retina absorb and convert the light to electrochemical impulses which are transferred along the optic nerve and then to the brain.

Explanation:

When light rays reflect off an object and enter the eyes through the cornea (the transparent outer covering of the eye), you can then see that object. The cornea bends, or refracts, the rays that pass through the round hole of the pupil.
