Which of the following statements is accurate? A. Sound waves passing through the air will do so as transverse waves, which vibr

ate vertically and still retain their horizontal positions. B. Compressions and rarefactions occur throughout a transverse wave. C. Amplitude of longitudinal waves is measured at right angles to the direction of the travel of the wave and represents the maximum distance the molecule has moved from its normal position. D. The wavelength of both transverse and longitudinal waves is measured parallel to the direction of the travel of the wave.

How does a parallel circuit differ from a series circuit?
8_murik_8 [283]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. A parallel circuit differ from a series circuit in a sense that a <span>series circuit has one path for electrons, but a parallel circuit has more than one path. In a parallel circuit there two or more paths for current to flow while a series circuit only has one.</span>

2) The horizontal and vertical components of the initial velocity of a football are 16 m/s and 20 m/s respectively. How long doe
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: 2.04 s

Explanation:

Let the initial velocity be v, Angle of projectile be

Then the horizontal component = v cos θ = 16 m/s

Vertical component of velocity = v sin θ = 20 m/s

Time taken to reach the highest point is half the time taken for total flight.

Time for total flight,

t = \frac{2vsin \theta}{g}

t'=\frac{vsin \theta}{g} = \frac {20 m/s}{9.8 m/s^2} = 2.04 s

Thus, the football takes 2.04 s to rise to the highest point of its trajectory.

A 40-cmcm-long tube has a 40-cmcm-long insert that can be pulled in and out. A vibrating tuning fork is held next to the tube. A
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

1070 Hz

Explanation:

First, I should point out there might be a typo in the question or the question has inconsistent values. If the tube is 40 cm long, standing waves cannot be produced at 42.5 cm and 58.5 cm lengths. I assume the length is more than the value in the question then. Under this assumption, we proceed as below:

The insert in the tube creates a closed pipe with one end open and the other closed. For a closed pipe, the difference between successive resonances is a half wavelength \frac{\lambda}{2}.

Hence, we have

\dfrac{\lambda}{2}=58.5-42.5=16 \text{ cm}

\lambda=32\text{ cm}=0.32 \text{ m}.

The speed of a wave is the product of its wavelength and its frequency.

v=f\lambda

f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}

f=\dfrac{343}{0.32}=1070 \text{ Hz}
