I think it's longitudinal wave because the particles move parallel to the direction that the wave is traveling.

Answer:

Longitudinal wave

Explanation:

Longitudinal wave: this wave produces vibrations in the direction it moves, that is, it pushes the particles in the medium towards their direction of propagation.

Unlike another type of wave that is the transverse wave, which produces  vibration in a direction perpendicular to its direction of propagation.

So the wave mentioned in the statement is a longitudinal wave because the displacement of the particles is in the direction of the wave.

An example of this type of wave are sound waves, which are transmitted by vibrations in the particles of the medium (like air) in their direction of the movement of the wave.

The milky way galaxy is the galaxy that is closest to us contains the most stars is farthest from us contains our solar system
yKpoI14uk [10]
The Milky Way galaxy is the one that the sun is a member of, and it contains
our solar system.  We're in it, and you can't get much closer than that.

The Milky Way is known to be bigger than your average galaxy, but it's
probably not correct to say that it contains the 'most' stars of any galaxy. 
The estimate for the Milky Way is only a few hundred billion stars.

On a straight road (taken to be in the x direction) you drive for an hour at 60 km per hour, then quickly speed up to 120 km per
Luda [366]

Answer:

The average velocity is 180 km/hr

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity, u = 60 km per hour

final velocity, v = 120 km per hour

initial time = 1 hour

final time = 2 hour

Initial position = 60 km/h x 1 hour = 60 km

final position = 120 km/h x 2 hour = 240 km

The average velocity is given by;

V_{avg} = \frac{Final \ position\  - \ Initial \ position}{final \ time\  - \ initial \ time}\\\\V_{avg} = \frac{240km \ - \ 60km}{2hr\  - \ 1hr} \\\\V_{avg} = \frac{180 \ km}{1hr} \\\\V_{avg}= 180 \ km/hr

Therefore, the average velocity is 180 km/hr
