Displacement of the medium perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. that would be your answer

For transverse waves the displacement of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. A ripple on a pond and a wave on a string are easily visualized transverse waves.

A 1-megabit computer memory chip contains many 27 fF capacitors. Each capacitor has a plate area of 3.09 × 10−11 m 2 . Determine

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Plate separation of each capacitor is 101.132 °A

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the capacitance in empty space as a function of distance (square parallel plates) is:

$C=\epsilon_{0}\frac{Area}{distance}$

clearing for distance:

$distance=\epsilon_0 \frac{Area}{Capacitance} \\\\\epsilon_0=8.8542(10)^{-12}C^2/Nm\\\\Area=3.09(10)^{-11}m^2\\Capacitance=27(10)^{-15}F\\\\Replacing\\\\distance=\frac{8.8542(10)^{-12}*3.09(10)^{-11}}{27(10)^{-15}} =1.0133(10)^{-8}m\\\\In A\\distance= 101.132 A$

If the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s and the wavelength of this note is 2.62 m, what is the frequency of this C3 note? (Round

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The frequency of of the note = 131 Hz.

Explanation:

Frequency: Frequency can be defined as the number of complete oscillation completed by a wave in one seconds. The S.I unit of frequency is Hertz ( Hz)

v = λf ............................ Equation 1

Making f the subject of the equation,

f = v/λ .......................... Equation 2

Where v = Speed, λ = wavelength, f = frequency

Given: v = 343 m/s, λ = 2.62 m.

Substituting these values into equation 2

f = 343/2.62

f = 131 Hz

Thus the frequency of of the note = 131 Hz.
