It is a longitudinal wave. In a longitudinal wave the particles of the medium vibrate in a direction parallel to the direction of energy transport. Sound waves are mechanical waves as well as longitudinal waves that require a medium. They do not travel through a vacuum.

Longitudinal, because the sound can only travel at one direction

Answer:

$d_1 = 16 d$

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the fall of the stone is ZERO

$v_i = 0$

also the acceleration due to gravity on Mars is g

so we have

$d = v_i t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

now we have

$d = 0 + \frac{1}{2}g t^2$

now if the same is dropped for 4t seconds of time

then again we will use above equation

$d_1 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}g(4t)^2$

$d_1 = 16(\frac{1}{2}gt^2)$

$d_1 = 16 d$

A boy whirls a stone in a horizontal circle of radius 1.50m and at height 2.00m above level ground. The string breaks, and the s

Answer:

$a_{cp}=162.2m/s^2$

Explanation:

The time the stone takes to fall can be calculated considering only the vertical component with the formula:

$y=y_0+v_{0y}t+\frac{a_yt^2}{2}$

Taking the inital height as 0m and downward direction positive, since it departs from (vertical) rest we have:

$y=\frac{gt^2}{2}$

Which gives us a time:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(2m)}{(9.8m/s^2)}}=0.64s$

Horizontally, on that time the stone travelled a distance x=10m, which means its horizontal speed was:

$v_x=\frac{x}{t}=\frac{10m}{0.64s}=15.6m/s$

Since <u>this speed is the tangential velocity</u> while whirling, the centripetal acceleration of the stone was:

$a_{cp}=\frac{v_x^2}{r}=\frac{(15.6m/s)^2}{(1.5m)}=162.2m/s^2$
