Answer : The correct option is, (b) longitudinal wave

Explanation :

Longitudinal waves : It is defined as the waves in which the particles of the medium move in the direction of the wave.

Transverse wave : It is defined as the waves in which the particles of the medium travel perpendicularly to the direction of the wave.

Surface wave : It is defined as a combination of transverse and longitudinal waves.

From the given image we conclude that, this illustration depict the longitudinal wave because the particles of the medium move in the direction of the wave.

Hence, the correct option is, (b) longitudinal wave

Evgen [1.6K]

Kepler's laws were enunciated to model in a mathematical way the movement of the planets in their respective orbits around the Sun.

There are three laws of Kepler.

In particular, Kepler's first law states the following:

"All the planets move around the Sun describing elliptical orbits, the Sun is in one of the foci of the ellipse."

Answer:

Kepler's 1st law of planetary motion states that the planets have an elliptical orbit, with the Sun at one focal point of the ellipse.

Chameleons catch insects with their tongues, which they can rapidly extend to great lengths. In a typical strike, the chameleon’

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

0.2 m

Explanation:

PHASE 1

First, we calculate the distance the tongue moved in the first 20 ms (0.02 secs). We use one of Newton's equations of linear motion:

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

where u = initial velocity = 0 m/s

a = acceleration = $250 m/s^2$

t = time = 0.02 s

Therefore:

$s = 0 + \frac{1}{2} * 250 * (0.02)^2\\\\\\s = 0.05 m$

PHASE 2

Then, for the next 30 ms (0.03 secs), we use the formula:

$distance = speed * time$

This speed is the same as the final velocity of the tongue after the first 20 ms.

This can be obtained by using the formula:

$v = u + at\\\\=> v = 0 + (250 * 0.02)\\\\\\v = 5 m/s$

Therefore:

distance = 5 * 0.03 = 0.15 m

Therefore, the total distance moved by the tongue in the 50 ms interval is:

0.05 + 0.15 = 0.2 m

An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor. The charge per unit area on each plate is

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

v = 1.15*10^{7} m/s

Explanation:

given data:

charge/ unit area $= \sigma = 1.99*10^{-7} C/m^2$

plate seperation = 1.69*10^{-2} m

we know that

electric field btwn the plates is $E = \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon}$

force acting on charge is F = q E

Work done by charge q id $\Delta X =\frac{ q\sigma \Delta x}{\epsilon}$

this work done is converted into kinectic enerrgy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =\frac{ q\sigma \Delta x}{\epsilon}$

solving for v

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2q\Delta x}{\epsilon m}$

$\epsilon = 8.85*10^{-12} Nm2/C2$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2 1.6*10^{-19}1.99*10^{-7}*1.69*10^{-2}}{8.85*10^{-12} *9.1*10^{-31}}$

v = 1.15*10^{7} m/s

The bones of the forearm (radius and ulna) are hinged to the humerus at the elbow. The biceps muscle connects to the bones of th

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The force exerted by the biceps is 143.8 kgf.

Explanation:

To calculate the force exerted by the biceps, we calculate the momentum in the elbow.

This momentum has to be zero so that her forearm remains motionless.

Being:

W: mass weight (6.15 kg)

d_W= distance to the mass weight (0.425 m)

A: weight of the forearm (2.25 kg)

d_A: distance to the center of mass of the forearm (0.425/2=0.2125 m)

H: force exerted by the biceps

d_H: distance to the point of connection of the biceps (0.0215 m)

The momemtum is:

$H*d_H-A*d_A-W*d_W=0\\\\H=(A*d_A+W*d_W)/d_H\\\\H=(2.25*0.2125+6.15*0.425)/0.0215\\\\H=(0.478125+2.61375)/0.0215\\\\H=3.091875/0.0215=143.8$

The force exerted by the biceps is 143.8 kgf.
