Compression and rarefaction are two phenomenon occurs in longitudunal wave!

when there is denser particle gathering in that wave , there we called it compression and the rarer part of particles is rarefaction !

Compression is the state of being compressed, or pressed together (forcing into less space)
Rarefaction is the act of becoming less dense.
The two are opposites if that helps.

Which of the following is true of education in 1950
Maksim231197 [3]
Information I learned from history class Education in the 1950's expanded from previous decades. They no longer focused purely on reading, writing and arithmetic. History and science became a main part of the cirriculum. Also, enrollment skyrocketed as the baby-boomers began enrolling in elementary school. One interesting thing that categorized this generation was the presence of fallout tests. Schools would require the students to go through a fake atomic bomb attack in which they would hide under their desks (which was completely pointless in protecting them from radiation, it was more of an emotional security for the parents and teachers, but scared the hell out of the students). Socially, children were taught to conform and to be normal. Standing out or questioning authority was bad. Sex was taught, though minimally. They explained the penis and vagina. Sexually transmitted diseases were focused on greatly so as to "scare" the students out of premarital sex.

A 12.7 L box is filled with 6.0 moles of Argon gas and cooled to a temperature of 210 K. What is the pressure?
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Gases are easily compressed. We can see evidence of this in Table 1 in Thermal Expansion of Solids and Liquids, where you will note that gases have the largest coefficients of volume expansion. The large coefficients mean that gases expand and contract very rapidly with temperature changes. In addition, you will note that most gases expand at the same rate, or have the same β. This raises the question as to why gases should all act in nearly the same way, when liquids and solids have widely varying expansion rates.

What appliances use electromagnets
Svetlanka [38]
Electromagnets are used in home appliances quite regularly and are used even in simple home appliances. Common home appliances that use electromagnets are toasters, printers, and microwave ovens. Electromagnets are a certain type of magnet that does not function unless an electrical current flows through it. These appliances create the magnetic field by flowing electricity through certain parts of the appliance.
