Answer:

Of longitudinal waves

Explanation:

Depending on the direction of the oscillation, there are two types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the oscillations occur perpendicularly to the direction of propagation of the wave. Examples are electromagnetic waves.

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the oscillations occur parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave. In such a wave, the oscillations are produced by alternating regions of higher density of particles, called compressions, and regions of lower density of particles, called rarefactions. Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

Dacia asks katarina to tell her What the values of the Y or that can make sin

ololo11 [35]

Katarina is right. The explanation correct is because r is a distance and always positive, from she can see that when y is negative, sinθ is also negative.

<h3>What is the explanation for the above?</h3>

For every interval of odd multiple of π, to next even multiple of π, sinθ will be negative.

Mathematically,

Sin θ will be negative in

[(2n +1)π, (2n + 2)π]

Where, n is any integer (Positive or negative).

Hence, it is right to state that Katarina is right. The explanation correct is because r is a distance and always positive, from she can see that when y is negative, sinθ is also negative.

An unknown object is placed inside of a spherical container and dropped from an airplane. When empty, the spherical container ha

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The mass of unknown object is 8.62Kg

Explanation:

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the Drag force and the Force of Gravity.

For the given point, that is, the moment at which the terminal velocity is reached, the two forces equalize, that is,

$F_D =F_g$

By definition we know that the Drag force is defined as

$F_D= \frac{1}{2} C_d \rho A V^2$

Where,

$C_d =$ Drag coefficient

$\rho =$ Density

A =Cross-sectional Area

V = Velocity

In the other hand we have,

$F_g = (m_1 +m_2) g$

Where,

$m_1 =$ Mass of sphere

$m_2 =$ Mass of unknown object

Equating the two equations we have to

$(m_1 +m_2) g=\frac{1}{2} C_d \rho A V^2$

Re-arrange for m_2,

$m_2 = \frac{1}{2g} C_d \rho A V^2 -m_1$

Our values are given by,

$C_d = 0.5$

$\rho = 1.22Kg/m^3$

$V = 66.7m/s$

$m_1 = 3Kg$

$d= 32.7*10^{-2}m$

$r = 16.35*10^{-2}m$

Replacing in the equation we have,

$m_2 = \frac{1}{2(9.8)}(0.5) (1.22) (\pi*(16.35*10^{-2})^2)*66.7^2 -3$

$m_2 = 8.62Kg$

<em>Therefore the mass of unknown object is 8.62Kg</em>

We are given the description of an enclosure that has fencing on 3 sides and can use 3,056 yards of fencing. We are to find the

shusha [124]

Answer:

The sum of the lengths of the sides is 2292 yards and the sum of the lengths of the triangle is 3056 yards

Explanation:

Since y represents the length of fence that is opposite (parallel) to the river and x represent the length of fence perpendicular to the river.

Therefore since we can use 3,056 yards of fencing

Side perpendicular to the river = x and,

Side opposite to the river = y = 3056 - 2x

The area of the rectangle formed (A) = Perpendicular side × Parallel side

∴ A = x(3056 - 2x) = 3056x - 2x²

A = 3056x - 2x²

To maximize the area, A' (dA/dx) = 0

∴ A' = 3056 - 4x = 0

3056 - 4x = 0

4x = 3056

x = 764 yards

y = 3056 - 2x = 3056 - 2(764) = 1528 yards.

Side perpendicular to the river = 764 yards and,

Side opposite to the river = 1528 yards

The sum of the lengths of the sides = 764 + 1528 = 2292 yard and the sum of the lengths of the triangle = 764 + 764 + 1528 = 3056 yards
