Answer:  Longitudinal wave

Explanation:

Longitudinal wave are the oscillations that are parallel to the direction of energy transfer that means the vibrations are in line with the direction where the energy is travelling.

A key feature of sound wave is that they cause sound particles to vibrate. The region where the particles are close together are called compressions and regions where particles are further apart they are called rarefactions.  

The other options explanation:

-Transverse waves are where the oscillations are perpendicular to the energy of transfer.

-A standing wave is where the waves are travelling back and forth where there are some fixed points in the system whilst other vibrate with highest amplitude  

-Surface waves have both the characteristics of longitudinal and transverse waves

A circuit with resistive elements of 220, 100, 57, and 43 produce what total resistance?
Korvikt [17]

The total resistance is 420 ohm.

A circuit with resistive elements of 220, 100, 57, and 43 produce what total resistance  

 R= 220+ 100+ 57+ 43

    = 420 Ω

What is resistance and its types?

Resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit also known as ohmic resistance or electrical resistance. Ohms are measured as resistance, symbolized by the Greek letter omega (Ω). The ratio of the applied voltage to the current through the material is then known as resistance.

What causes resistance?

An electric current flows when electrons move through a conductor, such as a metal wire. The moving electrons can collide with the ions in the metal. This makes it more difficult for the current to flow, and causes resistance.

Nataly [62]

Answer

given,

mass of ball, m = 57.5 g = 0.0575 kg

velocity of ball northward,v = 26.7 m/s

mass of racket, M = 331 g = 0.331 Kg

velocity of the ball after collision,v' = 29.5 m/s

a) momentum of ball before collision

   P₁ = m v

   P₁ = 0.0575 x 26.7

   P₁ = 1.535 kg.m/s

b) momentum of ball after collision

   P₂ = m v'

   P₂ = 0.0575 x (-29.5)

   P₂ = -1.696 kg.m/s

c) change in momentum

    Δ P = P₂ - P₁

    Δ P = -1.696 -1.535

    Δ P = -3.231 kg.m/s

d) using conservation of momentum

  initial speed of racket = 0 m/s

  M u + m v = Mu' + m v

  M x 0 + 0.0575 x 26.7 = 0.331 x u' + 0.0575 x (-29.5)

  0.331 u' = 3.232

     u' = 9.76 m/s

change in velocity of the racket is equal to 9.76 m/s
