What is a transverse wave

Physics
1 answer:
Gnom [1K]3 years ago
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>

A dinner plate falls vertically to the floor and breaks up into three pieces, which slide horizontally along the floor. Immediat
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

There will be conservation of momentum along horizontal plane because no force acts along horizontal plane.

momentum of first piece = .320 kg x 2 m/s

= 0.64 kg m/s along x -axis.

momentum of second piece = .355 kg x 1.5 m/s

= 0.5325 kg m/s along y- axis .

Let the velocity of third piece be v and it is making angle of θ with x -axis .

Horizontal component of its velocity = .100 kg x v cosθ = .1 v cosθ

vertical  component of its velocity = .100 kg x v sinθ = .1 v sinθ

For making total momentum in the plane zero

.1 v cosθ = 0.64 kg m/s

.1 v sinθ = 0.5325 kg m/s

Dividing

Tanθ = .5325 / .64 = .83

θ = 40⁰.

The angle will be actually 180 + 40 = 220 ⁰ from positive x -axis.

A wrench is placed at 30 cm in front of a diverging lens with a focal length of magnitude 10 cm. What is the magnification of th
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

0.25

Explanation:

Magnification = image distance/object distance

mag = v/u.................. Equation 1

Given: f = -10 cm ( diverging lens) u = 30 cm.

Where can calculate for the value of v using

1/f = 1/u+1/v

make v the subject of the equation

v = fv/(u-f)..................... Equation 2

Substitute into equation 2

v = -30(10)/(30+10)

v = -300/40

v = -7.5 cm.

substituting into equation 1,

mag = 7.5/30

mag = 0.25

hence the magnification of the wretch = 0.25
