How is a waveform shown on the oscilloscope different from a compressional wave?
kiruha [24]
<span>The waveform shown on an oscilloscope is a signal graph of voltage as a function of time.

Such a signal isn't considered by the oscilloscope to be traveling, and hence the oscilloscope itself doesn't see the signal as a wave.


In the wire though, it "sort of" is a longitudinal wave of electrons...but then again, there is more to the story. There is also a radio EM wave in the surrounding electric and magnetic fields, and the engineers interested in long distance signal transmission study these fields to estimate velocity factor. </span>

Calcula la masa equivalente del clorato de calcio CA (CI03)2
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

207g

Explanation:

Given compound:

            Ca(ClO₃)₂

Equivalent mass is the

The equivalent mass can be derived by summing the molar masses of each atom

  Molar mass of Ca = 40

                            Cl  = 35.5

                            O  = 16

Now solve;

 Molar mass  = 40 + 2(35.5 + 3(16)) = 207g

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is -  Positive charge occupies a very small volume in the atom.

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford's experiments exhibited the presence of the nuclear core: a small region with the greater part of the mass of the atom and the positive charge.  

Rutherford's gold foil analyze gave three conclusions:  

- the particle is generally vacant space  

- in it is a little, thick core  or dense nucleus

- the core is positively charged.

Which of the following correctly describes a compound? The atoms are bonded together, and the compound has different physical an
grandymaker [24]

A chemical compound can be described as substance composed of atoms from more than one element held together by chemical bonds in a fixed stoichiometric proportion. A compound has different physical and chemical properties from its constituent elements.

For example : compound water is made up of H and O bonded together and it has different properties from O and H.

Thus, among the given options, the one coreectly describing a compound is

a) The atoms are bonded together, and the compound has different physical and chemical properties than the individual elements.
