Answer:

The disturbance of molecules are perpendicular to wave motion

Explanation:

Transverse waves: in transverse waves all the medium moles vibrates perpendicular to the wave motion such that the net displacement of all molecules are zero.

While in longitudinal waves all the molecules will oscillate in the direction of wave propagation. All molecules transfer the energy from one point to other point while oscillating parallel to the wave propagation direction.

Explanation:

<u>Dimensional Analysis</u>

It's given the relation between quantities A, B, and C as follows:

$\displaystyle A=\frac{3}{2}B^mC^n$

and the dimensions of each variable is:

$A=L^2T^2$

$B=LT^{-1}$

$C=LT^2$

Substituting the dimensions into the relation (the coefficient is not important in dimension analysis):

$\displaystyle L^2T^2=\left(LT^{-1}\right)^m\left(LT^2\right)^n$

Operating:

$L^2T^2=\left(L^mT^{-m}\right)\left(L^nT^{2n}\right)$

$L^2T^2=L^{m+m}T^{-m+2n}$

Equating the exponents:

$m+n=2$

$-m+2n=2$

Adding both equations:

$3n=4$

Solving:

$n=4/3$

$m=2-4/3=2/3$

Answer:

$\mathbf{\displaystyle m=\frac{2}{3},\ n=\frac{4}{3}}$

How far from the base of the platform does she land?

seropon [69]

When Janet leaves the platform, she's moving horizontally at 1.92 m/s. We assume that there's no air resistance, and gravity has no effect on horizontal motion. There's no horizontal force acting on Janet to make her move horizontally any faster or slower than 1.92 m/s.

She's in the air for 1.1 second before she hits the water.

Moving horizontally at 1.92 m/s for 1.1 second, she sails out away from the platform

(1.92 m/s) x (1.1 sec) = <em>2.112 meters</em>
