What is a transverse wave

1 answer:

3 0

<span>A transverse wave is a moving wave that consists of oscillations occurring perpendicular (or right angled) to the direction of energy transfer. If a transverse wave is moving in the positive x-direction, its oscillations are in up and down directions that lie in the y–z plane. Light is an example of a transverse wave.</span>

Answer:

4 s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 12 m

v₀ = 6 m/s

v = 0 m/s

Find: t

Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t

12 m = ½ (0 m/s + 6 m/s) t

t = 4 s

Is it possible to accelerate while moving constant speed

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

An object which experiences either a change in the magnitude or the direction of the velocity vector can be said to be accelerating. This explains why an object moving in a circle at constant speed can be said to accelerate - the direction of the velocity changes.
