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.
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.
C. Three isotopes of the same element because the number of electrons and protons remain the same but the number of neutrons in the nucleus are different. This means that the isotopes have different masses to each other but the same chemical properties.
