Answer:
Transverse waves
Explanation:
Transverse waves are a type of wave that oscillates perpendicular to the direction of movement (the direction of propagation). These type of waves are usually represented by the sine or cosine functions due to the up and down oscillation of the waves.
In the case of water waves the thing that oscillates up and down are the <u>water particles</u> affected by the disturbance.
And for the case light waves what oscillates are the <u>electric and magnetic fields</u>, both oscillating perpendicular to the direction of light propagation.
Answer:
The impulse experienced by the object equals the change in momentum of the object. In equation form, F.t = m. Δv. In a collision, objects experience an impulse; the impulse causes and is equal to the change in momentum.
1) Find (or develop) the question you're asked
2) Study all academic literature, observations, and studies that are related to the question being asked
3) Answer the question and theorize.
Explanation:
The runner was 8.6km away from the finish line when the bird starts flying.
Therefore it takes the bird 8.6/14.4 = 0.60 hours for the bird to fly to the finish line.
In that 0.60 hours, the runner would have ran an extra 3.6km/h * 0.6h = 2.16km.
Now, the runner and the bird are flying towards each other. The distance between them is 8.6 - 2.16 = 6.44km and their combined speed is 18.0km.
Hence, they will meet in 6.44/18.0 = 0.36 hours.
Overall, the bird flew for 0.60 + 0.36 = 0.96 hours, and flew 14.4km/h * 0.96h = 13.8km.
