Answer: The correct option is (C).

Explanation:

When the particles of the medium travel parallel to the direction of the propagation of the wave then the wave is said to be longitudinal wave.

It needs medium to travel. It can travel in solid, liquid and gas.

The example of the longitudinal wave is a sound wave. Sound wave consists of compression and rarefaction.

When the particles of the medium travel perpendicular to the direction of the propagation of the wave then the wave is said to be transverse wave.

Therefore, the best statement which describes the longitudinal wave is option (C).

Sophia wanted to estimate the product 73 x 12 so she made an estimate of 70x 10. Would her estimate be greater or near the actua
Nina [5.8K]
Her estimate would not be greater, so it would be near the actual estimate. the numbers 70 and 10 are smaller than the numbers 73 and 12, so it is not possible for 70 x 10 to be more than 73 x 12 is. i hope this helps!!

What do pressure and temperature determine about a gas
NikAS [45]

Answer:

With Boyle's law we have that for a constant temperature and gas quantity the pressure of a gas multiplied by its volume is also constant: This means that under the same temperature, two gases with equal quantity of molecules and equal volume must also have the same pressure, as well as that two gases with equal quantity and pressure must have the same volume.
