Answer: The correct answer is "The particles of the medium vibrate up and down".

Explanation:

Transverse wave is a wave in which the particles of the medium vibrate perpendicular to the direction of the wave.

For example, light wave. Transverse wave does not need any medium to travel.

In the given problem, a transverse wave is traveling from right to left. The direction of the particles of the medium vibrates up and down.

As shown in the figure below, a bullet is fired at and passes through a piece of target paper suspended by a massless string. Th

NikAS [45]

Answer:

M = 0.730*m

V = 0.663*v

Explanation:

Data Given:

$v_{bullet, initial} = v\\v_{bullet, final} = 0.516*v\\v_{paper, initial} = 0\\v_{paper, final} = V\\mass_{bullet} = m\\mass_{paper} = M\\Loss Ek = 0.413 Ek$

Conservation of Momentum:

$P_{initial} = P_{final}\\m*v_{i} = m*0.516v_{i} + M*V\\0.484m*v_{i} = M*V .... Eq1$

Energy Balance:

$\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2_{i} = \frac{1}{2}*m*(0.516v_{i})^2 + \frac{1}{2}*M*V^2 + 0.413*\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2_{i}\\\\0.320744*m*v^2_{i} = M*V^2\\\\M = \frac{0.320744*m*v^2_{i} }{V^2} ....... Eq 2$

Substitute Eq 2 into Eq 1

$0.484*m*v_{i} = \frac{0.320744*m*v^2_{i} }{V^2} *V \\0.484 = 0.320744*\frac{v_{i} }{V} \\\\V = 0.663*v_{i}$

Using Eq 1

$0.484m*v_{i} = M* 0.663v_{i}\\\\M = 0.730*m$

Which law describes how the Earth applies a gravitational force on the Moon, the Moon applies a gravitational force on Earth? *

nikdorinn [45]

The answer is Newton's 3rd Law. The reason why is because a force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. ... These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject ofNewton's third law of motion. Formally stated, Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Why do smaller endotherms require more energy per unit of mass than larger endotherms?

Naily [24]

They expend more oxygen. Littler endotherms lose warmth to the earth proportionately speedier than huge endotherms: less warm mass, protecting layers in littler creatures are less successful by dint of being more slender, and more prominent surface region to volume proportion implies snappier radiation of warmth
