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.

blsea [12.9K]

We have that the electric field at the center of the metal ball due only to the charges on the surface of the metal ball is

E=7*10^{9}N/C

From the question we are told that

A solid metal ball of radius 1.5 cm

bearing a charge of -15 nC is located near a hollow plastic ball of radius 1.9 cm bearing

uniformly distributed charge of -7 nC

The distance between the centers of the balls is 9 cm

Generally the equation for the electric field  is mathematically given as

E=\frac{kq_2}{d^2}\\\\E=\frac{(9*10^9)7*10^{-2}}{9*10^{-2}}\\\\

E=7*10^{9}N/C

Which symbol represents a type of electromagnetic radiation released during radioactive decay?
Lena [83]
The correct option is (D) Gamma ( _0^0\gamma )

Explanation:
Now this question is a tricky one because all of these options are somehow involved in radioactive decay; however, in this case the SYMBOL is required NOT the elements. There are three symbols involved in radioactive decay, which are:
1. α for alpha decay
2. β for beta decay
3. γ for gamma decay 

In the options only one symbol is present which is gamma. Hence option (D) Gamma ( _0^0\gamma ) is the correct answer.

PLEASE HELP LOTTA POINTS
sergiy2304 [10]

There's a nasty wrinkle here that's kind of sneaky, and makes the work harder than it should be.

Look at the first question.  There's a number there that's dropped in so quietly that you're almost sure to miss it, but it changes the whole landscape of both of these problems.   That's where it says

" ... 20 cm mark (30 cm from the fulcrum) ... " .

That tells us that the yellow bar resting on the pivot is actually a meter stick, but the pictures don't show the centimeter marks on the stick.  The left end of the stick is "0 cm", the right end of the stick is "100 cm", and the pivot is under the "50 cm" mark.  

When the question talks about hanging a weight, it tells the <em>centimeter mark on the stick</em> where the weight is tied.  To solve the problem, we have to first figure out <em>how far that is from the pivot</em>, then calculate how far from the pivot to put the weight on the other side, and finally <u><em>what centimeter mark that is</em></u> on the stick.      

How to solve the problems:

-- The "moment" of a weight is (the weight) x (its distance from the pivot) .

-- To balance the stick, (the sum of the moments on one side) = (the sum of the moments on the other side).

= = = = = = = = = =  

#1).  Only one moment on the left side.  

(160 gm) x (30 cm from pivot) = 4,800 gm-cm

To balance, we need 4,800 gm-cm of moment on the right side.

(500 gm) x (distance from pivot) = 4,800 gm-cm

Distance from pivot = (4,800 gm-cm) / (500 gm)  =  9.6 cm

The 500 gm has to hang 9.6 cm to the right of the pivot.  But that's not the answer to the problem.  They want to know what mark on the stick to hang it from.  The pivot is at the 50cm mark.  The 500gm has to hang 9.6 cm to the right of the pivot.  That's the <em>59.6 cm</em> mark on the stick.

= = = = =

#2).  There are 2 weights hanging from the left side. We have to find the moment of each weight, add them up, then create the same amount of moment on the right side.

one weight:  120gm, hanging from the 25cm mark.

That's 25cm from the pivot.  Moment = (120gm) (25cm) = 3,000 gm-cm

the other weight:  20gm, hanging from the 10cm mark;

That's 40cm from the pivot.  Moment = (20gm) (40cm) = 800 gm-cm

Add up the moments on the left side:

(3,000 gm-cm) + (800 gm-cm) = 3,800 gm-cm.

To balance, we need 3,800 gm-cm of moment on the right side.

(500 gm) x (its distance from the pivot) = 3,800 gm-cm

Distance from the pivot = (3,800 gm-cm) / (500 gm) = 7.6 cm

The pivot is at the 50cm mark on the stick.  You have to hang the 500gm from 7.6cm to the right of that.  The mark at that spot on the stick is                (50cm + 7.6cm) = <em>57.6 cm </em>.

A wave is described by y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t), where x is in meters, y is in centimeters and t is in seconds. The angular wa
Mila [183]

Answer: 3 radians/meter.

Explanation:

The general sinusoidal function will be something like:

y = A*sin(k*x - ω*t) + C

Where:

A is the amplitude.

k is the wave number.

x is the spatial variable

ω is the angular frequency

t is the time variable.

C is the mid-value.

The rule that we can use to solve this problem, is that the argument of the sin( ) function must be in radians (or in degrees)

Then if x is in meters, the wave-number must be in radians/meters, so when these numbers multiply the "meters" part is canceled.

Then for the case of the function:

y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t)

Where x is in meters, the units of the wave number (the 3) must be in radians/meters. Then the angular wave number is 3 radians/meter.
