Answer: The correct answer is "circular".

Explanation:

Surface wave: Surface wave is neither transverse wave nor longitudinal wave. This wave travels both parallel and perpendicular to the direction of the propagation of the energy transportation.

The resulting direction of a surface wave is circular.

Ocean wave is a surface wave. It travels both perpendicular and parallel to the direction of the wave.

In Longitudinal wave, the particles oscillates parallel to the direction of the energy transportation.

In Transverse wave, the particles oscillates perpendicular to the direction of the energy transportation.

Therefore, the correct option is (B).

A uniform thin rod of mass ????=3.41 kg pivots about an axis through its center and perpendicular to its length. Two small bodie

vivado [14]

Answer:

The length of the rod for the condition on the question to be met is $L = 1.5077 \ m$

Explanation:

The Diagram for this question is gotten from the first uploaded image

From the question we are told that

The mass of the rod is $M = 3.41 \ kg$

The mass of each small bodies is $m = 0.249 \ kg$

The moment of inertia of the three-body system with respect to the described axis is $I = 0.929 \ kg \cdot m^2$

The length of the rod is L

Generally the moment of inertia of this three-body system with respect to the described axis can be mathematically represented as

$I = I_r + 2 I_m$

Where $I_r$ is the moment of inertia of the rod about the describe axis which is mathematically represented as

$I_r = \frac{ML^2 }{12}$

And $I_m$ the moment of inertia of the two small bodies which (from the diagram can be assumed as two small spheres) can be mathematically represented as
