When the vibration is in a direction parallel to wave's motion that is a Longitudinal wave  (C).

But When the vibration is in a direction perpendicular to wave's motion then it is Transverse wave.

Answer: The correct option is C.

Explanation:

Longitudinal wave is a wave in which the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. For example, sound wave. Longitudinal wave needs medium to travel. It can travel in solid, liquid and gas.

Transverse wave is a wave in which the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave. For example, light wave. Transverse wave does not need any medium to travel.

Therefore, longitudinal wave causes the medium to vibrate only in a direction parallel to the wave's motion.

trapecia [35]

Answer:

(a), (c) and (e) s correct.

Explanation:

a. the power used by a circuit is the resistance times the current squared.

The power is given by P = I^2 R, so the statement is correct.  

b. electric and magnetic fields are transporting the energy.

false

c. electrons are transporting the energy.

The energy is transferred by flow of electrons. It is correct.  

d. the power used by a circuit is the voltage times the current squared.

The power is given by P  = V I, the statement is wrong.  

e. the power used by a circuit is the current times the voltage.

The power is given by P  = V I, the statement is correct.

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in speed over change in time.

a = Δv / Δt

a. The car's acceleration is:

a = (80 km/h − 0 km/h) / 10 s

a = 8 km/h/s

So every second, the speed increases by 8 km/h.

b. The cyclist's acceleration is:

a = (16 m/s − 4.0 m/s) / 5.6 s

a = 2.1 m/s²

c. The stone's speed is:

10.0 m/s² = (v − 0 m/s) / 3.5 s

v = 35 m/s

d. The time is:

1.6 m/s² = (10 m/s − 0 m/s) / t

t = 6.3 s

5. A family leaves for an evening walk around the neighborhood. They leave at 5 pm and return at 6 pm. They traveled a total of
vlabodo [156]

This question involves the concepts of average speed, distance, and time.

The average speed of the family is "2.5 mi/hr".

<h3>AVERAGE SPEED</h3>

The average speed is defined as the ratio of the total distance covered with the total time taken to cover it.

v=\frac{s}{t}

where,

  • s = distance covered = 2.5 miles
  • t = total time taken = 1 hour
  • v = average speed = ?

Therefore,

v=\frac{2.5\ mi}{1\ hr}

v = 2.5 mi/hr

A 15.0-kg child descends a slide 2.40 m high and reaches the bottom with a speed of 1.10 m/s .
pickupchik [31]

The thermal energy that is generated due to friction is 344J.

<h3>What is the thermal energy?</h3>

Now we know that the total mechanical energy in the system is constant. The loss in energy is given by the loss in energy.

Thus, the kinetic energy is given as;

KE = 0.5 * mv^2 =0.5 * 15.0-kg * (1.10 m/s)^2 = 9.1 J

PE = mgh = 15.0-kg * 9.8 m/s^2 *  2.40 m = 352.8 J

The thermal energy is; 352.8 J - 9.1 J = 344J
