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 is not a form of an inclined plane?
disa [49]

Answer: piece of paper cut into a triangle  

Explanation:

A plane surface lifted at an angle to horizontal from one edge is said to be an inclined plane. A wedge, a ramp or a screw are examples of a forms of inclined plane. A screw is like a inclined plane wound on a cylinder. These are simple machines. On the other hand, a piece of paper cut into a triangle is not an inclined plane as it does rise at an angle from horizontal. It is not a machine.

Consider a highway composed of concrete. If the road is 4.5 km long, 30 m wide, and 0.70 m thick, what is its mass?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

We need to assume that the density of the concrete is about 2350 Kg/m^3. And using the dimensions of the highway we can calculate the volume of the highway.

vh=4500 * 30 * 0,70\\vh=94500 m^3\\den=m/v\\m=den*v\\m=2350*94500\\\\m=222075 ton

Match each type of wave to the way it moves.
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Transverse wave- Back and forth at right angles to the direction of the wave arrow.

longitudinal wave- bask and forth in the direction of the motion of the motion of the wave.

electromagnetic wave- two alternating waves moving at right angles to each other.

Explanation:

In a longitudinal wave, the particles vibrate at right angles in reference to the wave motion.

In a transverse wave, the particles vibrate parallel to the wave motion

Electromagnetic waves occur as a result of the interaction between two  waves and are normally transverse in nature.

2. What is the standard value of acceleration due to gravity or "g"?
svp [43]

Answer:

The standard acceleration due to gravity (or standard acceleration of free fall), sometimes abbreviated as standard gravity, usually denoted by ɡ0 or ɡn, is the nominal gravitational acceleration of an object in a vacuum near the surface of the Earth. It is defined by standard as 9.80665 m/s2 (about 32.17405 ft/s2).
