Sound waves in air (and any fluid medium) are longitudinal waves because particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrate parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves.
Answer:
The velocity of the ball is 0.92 m/s in the downward direction (-0.92 m/s).
Explanation:
Hi there!
The equation for the velocity of an object thrown upward is the following:
v = v0 + g · t
Where:
v = velocity of the ball.
v0 = initial velocity.
g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).
t = time.
To find the velocity of the ball at t = 0.40 s, we have to replace "t" by 0.40 s in the equation:
v = v0 + g · t
v = 3.0 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · 0.40 s
v = -0.92 m/s
The velocity of the ball is 0.92 m/s in the downward direction (-0.92 m/s).
Answer:
Sound waves are pushed closer together, decreasing wavelength
and increasing frequency.
