What measures the amount of displacement in a transverse wave

1 answer:

MAVERICK [17]2 years ago

Unlike a longitudinal wave, a transverse wave moves about, perpendicular to the direction of propagation. The particles in a transverse wave do not travel along the direction of propagation, but only oscillate up and down on its equilibrium position. With this, the displacement can be determined by measuring (in the case of electronic waves, using an oscilloscope or spectrum analyzer) and setting the desired units to measure the wave in.

What's the value of 1,152 Btu in joules? A. 1,964,445 J B. 2,485,664 J C. 987,875 J D. 1,215,360 J

OLga [1]

Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Given, 1,152 British thermal units

1 British thermal unit = 1055.06 joules

So, in 1,152 British thermal units there will be :

$1152\times 1055.06 Joules=1215429.12 Joules=1.21542912\times 10^{8} Joules$

Hence, from the given options the closest answer is of option (d). So, option (d) is correct.
