Physics

Answer:

  • <u><em>Displacement</em></u>

Explanation:

To describe the<em> change in position</em> you need to indicate the distance between the final and initial positions and the direction in which you moved. The distance is the magnitude.

The quantities that need both magnitude and direction to be described are named <em>vector quantities</em> or, just, vectors.

<em>The vector quantity that defines both the distance and direction between two positions </em>describes the <em>change in your position</em> and is named displacement. For instance, to indicate how you can goe to the supermarket from your house you cannot just say walk 2 miles. You need to indicate the direction; let's say 2 miles North. In this case, the displacement when you goe from your house to the supermarket is 2 miles North. And it is different of the displacement when you comeback from the supermarket to your house, because it would be 2 miles South.

A transverse wave on a string is described by the wave function
svp [43]

The period of the transverse wave from what we have here is 0.5

<h3>How to find the period of the transverse wave</h3>

The period of a wave can be defined as the time that it would take for the wave to complete one complete vibrational cycle.

The formula with which to get the period is

w = 4π

where w = 4 x 22/7

2π/T = 4π

6.2857/T = 12.57

From here we would have to cross multiply

6.2857 = 12.57T

divide through by 12.57

6.2857/12.57 = T

0.500 = T

Hence we can conclude that the value of T that can determine the period based on the question is 0.500.

In what ways does a stream transport its load, and which part of the load moves most slowly? Select all that apply.
vodka [1.7K]

Answer: Option (B)

Explanation: A stream transports its materials in different ways-

  1. <u>Dissolved load-</u> Here, the materials gets dissolved when mixed with water and flows along with the stream.
  2. <u>Suspended load</u>- Here, the materials are not fully dissolved in the water but they can be carried from one place to another in suspension mode, by the river.
  3. <u>Bed load-</u> Bed load are transported in three different ways such as-
  • Sliding- here, the materials slides down along a curved surface under the water and carried away.
  • Rolling- here, the materials are solid and due to force exerted by water, it can roll and move to distant places.
  • Saltation- here, the materials are carried away in a series of jumps.

Thus, the most appropriate answer is option (B) i.e bedload.

Which statements describe properties of stars? Check all that apply.
Shtirlitz [24]
One, three and five are correct.

Although if the second statement is saying that stars use gravitational force to support nuclear fusion which in turn produces energy then that would be correct, but I don’t think so :)
