In a compression wave, particles in the medium move

Physics
1 answer:
nikdorinn [45]3 years ago
8 0

in the same direction as the wave

Explanation:

In a compression wave, the particles in the medium moves in the same direction as the wave source.

A wave is generally defined as a disturbance that transmits energy.

  • There are two types of waves based on the direction through which they are propagated.
  • Transverse waves are directed perpendicularly in the direction of propagation.
  • Examples are electromagnetic waves.
  • Longitudinal waves are parallel to their source. Examples are sound waves, p-waves.
  • They are made up of series of rarefaction and compression.

Which of the following statements are true of an object in orbit around Earth? (Select all that apply.) The gravity force on the
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

All these statement are true

Explanation:

Gravity will be acting like a centripetal force for the circular motion of object around earth, which makes it perpendicular to the velocity vector. In the case of elliptical motion, gravity can still be divided into 2 vectors, one parallel and the other perpendicular to the velocity. At the nearest point in elliptical motion, gravity is directly perpendicular to velocity just like in circular motion. At the farthest point, the potential energy is minimized and has been converted into kinetic energy. Therefore at this point the speed is greatest.

Which wave, A or B, has lower energy? A, because it has a higher amplitude B, because it has a higher amplitude A, because it ha
frutty [35]

Energy of wave depends on its amplitude and it is given as

E = \frac{1}{2} kA^2

here k = constant

A = amplitude

so energy will increase or decrease depends on the amplitude of the wave

So here if we need to check which wave has lower energy then we need to compare the amplitude.

If the amplitude is less then energy must be less

So please check in the figure that which wave out of A and B has lesser amplitude to find out the wave of lesser energy

What two factors will make an object stable ​
galben [10]

The position of the centre of gravity of an object affects its stability. The lower the centre of gravity (G) is, the more stable the object. The higher it is the more likely the object is to topple over if it is pushed. Racing cars have really low centres of gravity so that they can corner rapidly without turning over.

Increasing the area of the base will also increase the stability of an object, the bigger the area the more stable the object. Rugby players will stand with their feet well apart if they are standing and expect to be tackled.

Is it possible for an inverted pyramid to exist, like the one show here? Explain your answer.
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Not possible, if we talk about real pyramids

Explanation:

There is no image shown in the question statement. However if we talk about the pyramids as we find them in Egypt, we cannot get a stable inverted pyramid because of the difficulty in terms of balancing it from its centre of mass. In theory one might balance the forces, but in actual, to balance all the load of the structure just on a point is extremely difficult.

However, the term inverted pyramid can be found in ecological system and also used as metaphors in English literature
