A wave which needs a medium (solid, liquid, gas) in order to propagate itself.

Physics
2 answers:
Vadim26 [7]3 years ago

The correct answer to the question is: Sound wave.

EXPLANATION:

Before going to answer this question, first we have to understand longitudinal wave.

A longitudinal wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of propagation of wave is parallel to the direction of particle vibration.

This wave propagates through a medium in the form of compression and rarefaction.

Compression are the regions of high pressure zones where the particles of the medium are closely aggregated to each other.

Rarefaction is the region of low pressure where particles of the medium are not so close to each other as compared to compression.

The longitudinal wave can not propagate in space. It always needs a medium for it's propagation. The medium may be solid, liquid or gas .

For instance, sound wave is a longitudinal wave.

Hence, the correct answer of this question is sound wave which needs a medium for it's propagation.

Answer:

Longitudinal waves

Explanation:

Mechanical waves are those waves which require medium to propagate. It has two types:

i) Transverse waves: These waves depend upon the rigidity of the medium so, they can propagate though solids and liquids but cannot pass through gases.

ii)  Longitudinal waves: These waves depend upon the volume elasticity of the medium so, they can propagate through solids, gases, and liquids

Hence, the right answer is longitudinal waves.

Answer:

Fractional error = 0.17

Percent error = 17%

F = 112 ± 19 N

Explanation:

Plug in the values to find the force:

F = (3.5 kg) (20 m/s)² / (12.5 m) = 112 N

Find the fractional error:

ΔF/F = Δm/m + 2Δv/v + Δr/r

ΔF/F = 0.1/3.5 + 2(1/20) + 0.5/12.5

ΔF/F = 0.17

Multiply by 100% to find the percent error:

ΔF/F × 100% = 17%

Solve for the absolute error:

ΔF = 0.17 × 112 N = 19 N

Therefore, the force is:

F = 112 ± 19 N

kipiarov [429]

Answer: C. Metal transfers heat away from the skin by conduction, creating the sensation of coolness.

Explanation: The skin releases heat into the metal bowl since there is a difference in temperature between the two objects. So heat is taken away from the hand abd transfers into the metal bowl by conduction creating a cooler sensation.

Mercury has a density of 13.56 g/mL. How many kilograms of mercury would you expect to fit in a cylindrical glass cup with a bot
vovangra [49]

Answer:

263.152kg

Explanation:

<em>The density of a substance is related to its mass and volume as follows;</em>

density = mass / volume      

mass = density x volume       -------------(i)

The substance in question here is <em>mercury </em>which has;

density = 13.56g/mL = 13.56g/cm³

Since the mercury is going to be put in the cylindrical glass, the volume of the cylindrical glass is going to be equal to the volume of the mercury that will be put.

And we know that the;

volume of a cylinder = πr²h

<em>Where;</em>

π = 3.142

r = bottom radius of the cylinder = 5.75inches

h = height of the cylinder = 0.950ft

<em>For uniformity, let's convert the radius and height of the cylinder to their corresponding values in cm</em>

r  = 5.75 inches = 5.75 x 2.54 cm = 14.605cm

h = 0.950 ft = 0.950 x 30.48 cm = 28.956cm

<em>Therefore, the volume of the cylinder;</em>

v = 3.142 x (14.605cm)² x 28.956cm = 19406.5cm³

v = 19406.5cm³ [This is also the volume of the mercury necessary to fit the cylinder]

<em>Now the following value has been found;</em>

volume = 19406.5cm³

<em>Substitute the values of density and volume into equation (i)  as follows;</em>

mass = 19406.5cm³ x 13.56g/cm³

mass = 263152.14g

<em>Convert the result to kg by dividing by 1000</em>

mass = 263.152kg

Therefore, 263.152kg kilograms of mercury would fit in the cylindrical glass.

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The cable run exceeds the specifications for Ethernet over twisted pair

Explanation:

The ethernet  network's router also serves as a bridge to the Internet. The router connects to the modem, which carries the Internet signal, sending and receiving data packet requests and routing them to the proper computers on the network.

Ethernet is a way of connecting computers together in a local area network or LAN. It has been the most widely used method of linking computers together in LAN s since the 1990 s.

The basic idea of its design is that multiple computers have access to it and can send data at any time.

What is the time it takes an object that moves at 25 m/min to travel 505 meters?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

25 meters = 1 minute

505 meters = ? minutes

Therefore, 505/25

Therefore, 101/5

Therefore, 2.2 minutes

It moves 505 meters in 2.2min
