Compare and contrast the two different types of mechanical waves?

Physics

There are longitudinal and transverse.  Both types of mechanical waves require a medium, transport energy, and have defined wavelengths, frequencies, and speeds.
Differences are that transverse waves oscillate along a direction perpendicular to the direction of travel (like shaking a rope up and down).  Longitudinal waves like oscillations along a spring and sound waves, oscillate back and forth along the direction of travel.

At a distance r from a charge e on a particle of mass m the electric field value is
mel-nik [20]

At a distance r from a charge e on a particle of mass m the electric field value is  8.9876 × 10⁹ N·m²/C². Divide the magnitude of the charge by the square of the distance of the charge from the point. Multiply the value from step 1 with Coulomb's constant.

<h3>what is magnitude ?</h3>

Magnitude can be defined as the maximum extent of size and the direction of an object.

It is used as a common factor in vector and scalar quantities, as we know scalar quantities are those quantities that have magnitude only and vector quantities are those quantities have both magnitude and direction.

There are different ways where magnitude is used Magnitude of earthquake,  charge on an electron, force, displacement, Magnitude of gravitational force

An electron is traveling with initial kinetic energy K in a uniform electric field. The electron comes to rest momentarily after
KatRina [158]

Answer:

E = kQs/r.r

Explanation:

Where E is the magnitude of electric field...

k is called Columb's Constant. It has a value of 8.99 x 109 N m2/C2.

Qs is the magnitude of the source charge...

and r is the magnitude of distance between source and target...

(When electron comes to rest Δt the magnitude of Electric field E become zero momentarily but later achieves the maximum value...)

PLS ANSWER ASAP!!
Xelga [282]

Answer:

b) The more could in the solenoid of the primary loop of a transformer will induce a greater emf in the secondary loop.

Explanation:

I think what that option was saying was the closer to the magnet the solenoid is, the faster it is going and the greater is the magnetic field due to the magnet in the vicinity of the solenoid, so the emf increases.

Ivahew [28]

Periscope is a tube containing mirrors or prisms for seeing things which are otherwise not possible to see due to some obstacle. Two mirrors are aligned at 45 degrees through which light bounces off and enables the observer to see beyond the obstacle. This is specially used in submarines.

A kaleidoscope is an optical device which contains mirrors and colored glass pieces in a tube. When the tube is rotated, beautiful patterns are formed due to multiple reflections.
