S waves can't go through liquids. S waves do pass through the mantle to the core. On certain parts of the earth's surface there are "shadow zones" or places where these waves are not transmitted.

When a guitar string is plucked, the guitar string oscillates as a result of waves moving through the string. The vibrations of

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Wave produced in string and waves produced in air are different . The only similarity is that their frequency are equal . Otherwise , no similarity . One is transverse ( on wire ) , the other is longitudinal ( air ) . Their velocities too are different .

velocity = wavelength x frequency

if frequency is constant

wavelength ∝ velocity

wavelength is proportional to velocity . Since their velocities are different , their wavelength too will be different.

James has a mass of 98 kg and Basma has a mass of 59 kg. James is running at 3.0 m/s, while Basma is running at 4.0 m/s.

a. The most momentum is attained by James.

b. The resultant force acting on her is 90.77N.

c. Time taken for him to stop is 3.24 s

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

Momentum of any object is the product of the velocity of the object and its mass.

P =mv

James has a mass of 98 kg and Basma has a mass of 59 kg. James is running at 3.0 m/s, while Basma is running at 4.0 m/s.

Substitute the values, we get

P jane= 98 kg x 3

P jane= 294 kg.m/s

Momentum of Basma, is

P Basma = 59 kg x 4

P Basma = 236 kg.m/s

Therefore, the momentum is large for James.

b. Basma approaches a road, so she stops quickly. It takes her 2.6 seconds to stop. The resultant force acting on her

F. t = P Basma

F =[ 236/2.6

F = 90.77 N

Thus, the resultant force on Basma is 90.77 N.

c. James also stops for the road. If he were to have the same resultant force acting on him, Time taken for him to stop is

F = 90.77 = P james/t

t = 294 / 90.77

t = 3.24 s

Thus, time taken for James to stop for the same resultant force is 3.24 s

What class of solids is made up of regularly repeating subunits of tightly packed, orderly arrangements of atoms, ions, or molec

xxTIMURxx [149]

The answer is crystalline solid. Crystalline solids have a regular arrangement of particles, because of that, they possess definite geometry.
This means that if you take a look at the crystal under the microscope you would notice that there is a pattern that constantly repeats. This pattern is called a unit cell, and crystal is made up of stacked unit cells.
