B. is the correct answer
marshall27 [118]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

In longitudinal wave, the vibrations of the particle of the medium is parallel to the direction of the motion of the wave.

In transverse wave, the vibrations of the particle of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the motion of the wave.

In surface wave, the particles of the medium undergo circular motion. The surface wave is neither longitudinal nor transverse.

Therefore, surface waves are the disturbances which travel in the circular motion.

Whiat is quantum numbers describes the size and energy of an orbital?
Levart [38]

Answer:

The answer is the principal Quantum number (n)

Explanation:

The principal quantum number is one of the four quantum numbers associated with an atom.

It is denoted by a number n=1,2,3,4 etc

It tells both size (directly) and energy (indirectly) of an orbital.

When n=1 means it is the closest to the nucleus and is the smallest orbital and with increase in principal quantum number, it depicts that size of the orbital is increasing.

It tells the energy of the orbital as well as smaller number means less distance from nucleus and having less energy. Since electrons requires to absorb energy to jump into higher orbitals making n=2,3,4 etc. Thus electrons in the orbitals with higher n number indicates higher energy orbitals.

Describe why cars are inefficient machines in terms of thermodynamics.
Alina [70]

Cars are the mechanical device which convert chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, the engine used in the automobiles car are very inefficient, they can only convert 30-40% of chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, since thermodynamics is the branch of science that deals with the conversion of energy, thus due to poor conversion rate of chemical energy into mechanical energy, cars are known as inefficient machine.

What is the density (in kg/m3) of a woman who floats in freshwater with 4.92% of her volume above the surface
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The density of the woman is 950.8 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given;

fraction of the woman's volume above the surface = 4.92%

then, fraction of the woman's volume below the surface = 100 - 4.92% = 95.08%

the specific gravity of the woman = \frac{95.08}{100 } = 0.9508

The density of the woman is calculate as;

Specific \ gravity \ of \ the \ woman = \frac{Density \ of \ the \ woman }{Density \ of \ fresh \ water }\\\\ Density \ of \ the \ woman  = Specific \ gravity \ of \ the \ woman \ \times \ Density \ of \ fresh \ water

Density of fresh water = 1000 kg/m³

Density of the woman = 0.9508 x 1000 kg/m³

Density of the woman = 950.8 kg/m³

Therefore, the density of the woman is 950.8 kg/m³
