A longitudinal wave is a mechanical wave that causes the medium to vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. Its wave’s forces travel through multiple rarefactions and compressions where compression is the closest distance in the longitudinal wave and rarefaction is the farthest distance apart in the said wave.

Determine qual é a carga elétrica de um corpo que possui 1 milhão de partículas?
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

This can be translated to:

"find the electrical charge of a body that has 1 million of particles".

First, it will depend on the charge of the particles.

If all the particles have 1 electron more than protons, we will have that the charge of each particle is q = -e = -1.6*10^-19 C

Then the total charge of the body will be:

Q = 1,000,000*-1.6*10^-19 C = -1.6*10^-13 C

If we have the inverse case, where we in each particle we have one more proton than the number of electrons, the total charge will be the opposite of the one of before (because the charge of a proton is equal in magnitude but different in sign than the charge of an electron)

Q = 1.6*10^-13 C

But commonly, we will have a spectrum with the particles, where some of them have a positive charge and some of them will have a negative charge, so we will have a probability of charge that is peaked at Q = 0, this means that, in average, the charge of the particles is canceled by the interaction between them.

With the switch open, roughly what must be the resistance of the resistor on the right for the current out of the battery to be
Delvig [45]

Answer:

The resistance must be 6.67\Omega

Solution:

Resistance, R_{1} = 20\Omega

Resistance, R_{2} = 10\Omega

For the current to be the same when the switch is open or closed, the resistances must be connected in parallel as current is distributed in parallel with the same voltage across the circuit:

Thus in parallel:

\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}} + \frac{1}{R_{2}}

\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{20} + \frac{1}{10}

R_{eq} = 6.67\ \Omega

Why do temperatures on the moons surface vary ncyb more than temperatures on earth
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The moon has no atmosphere

Explanation:

The temperatures on the surface of the Moon vary much more than those on Earth because the moon has no atmosphere (third answer in the list), and therefore there are no molecules that could retain residual heat and make the change from day to night a softer transition.
