The crowd in a stadium creates a wave traveling across the stands by having people stand up and then sit down one after another.

The people move up and down creating the appearance of a wave moving across the stadium. This type of wave is best described as a) transverse wave b) compression wave c) elliptical wave d) electromagnetic wave

<span>The correct option is: (A) Transverse Wave

Explanation:
Transverse wave is a wave in which the medium vibrates at right angles to the direction of its propagation.

In this case, consider the crowd as the medium and the perceived motion of the wave as the propagation. When the crowd moves up and down, the perceived wave be either from left to right or right to left. In either case, the crowd movement is perpendicular to the propagation of the wave. Imagine the crowd's up-down movement along y-axis and the perceived propagation of the wave along x-axis. Both axes are perpendicular to each other. Hence, the correct option is (A) Transverse wave.</span>

Two identical conducting spheres, A and B, carry equal charge. They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

C. \frac{3F}{8}

Explanation:

Let initial charges on both spheres be,q

F=\frac{Kq^2}{d^2}   \ \ \  \ \ \  \ \ \  \ \_i

When the sphere C is touched by A, the final charges on both will be,\frac{q}{2}

#Now, when C is touched by B, the final charges on both of them will be:

q_c=q_d=\frac{q/2+q}{2}\\\\=\frac{3q}{4}\\

Now the force between A and B is calculated as:

F\prime=\frac{k\times\frac{q}{2}\times \frac{3q}{4}}{d^2}\\F\prime=\frac{3F}{8}

Hence the electrostatic force becomes 3F/8

A very light ping-pong ball moving east at a speed of 4 m/s collides with a very heavy stationary bowling ball. The Ping-Pong ba
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

They experience the same magnitude impulse

Explanation:

We have a ping-pong ball colliding with a stationary bowling ball. According to the law of conservation of momentum, we have that the total momentum before and after the collision must be conserved:

where is the initial momentum of the ping-poll ball

is the initial momentum of the bowling ball (which is zero, since the ball is stationary)

is the final momentum of the ping-poll ball

is the final momentum of the bowling ball

We can re-arrange the equation as follows or

which means (1) so the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ping-pong ball is equal to the magnitude of the change in momentum of the bowling ball.

However, we also know that the magnitude of the impulse on an object is equal to the change of momentum of the object:

(2) therefore, (1)+(2) tells us that the ping-pong ball and the bowling ball experiences the same magnitude impulse:
