A wave is traveling through a medium. As it travels, it displaces particles of matter in the same direction as the wave is trave

ling. This type of wave is a
longitudinal wave because the particles move parallel to the direction that the wave is traveling.
transverse wave because of the way the particles are displaced as the wave passes through.
longitudinal wave because it moves forward through a medium causing the particles to vibrate.
transverse wave because it is not traveling in a vacuum and the particles are moving.

<u>Answer</u>

longitudinal wave because the particles move parallel to the direction that the wave is traveling.


<u>Explanation</u>

There are 2 types of a wave, electromagnetic and mechanical wave. These waves can also be categorized into two, longitudinal ans transverse waves.

longitudinal wave is a wave whose particles vibration is in the direction of wave travel.

Transverse wave is a wave whose vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.

Do Small objects exert no gravitational force ? True or false
Zanzabum

Answer:

False -    

F = G M1 M2 / R^2

So F depends on M1 and M2 and as long either is not zero there will be a gravitational force between them.

The efficiency of a device such as a lamp can be calculated using this equation:
loris [4]

efficiency = (useful energy transferred ÷ energy supplied) × 100

It's easy to use this formula, but we have to know both the useful energy and the energy supplied.  The drawing doesn't tell us the useful energy, so we have to find a clever way to figure it out.  I see two ways to do it:

<u>Way #1:</u>

We all know about the law of conservation of energy.  So we know that the total energy coming out must be  250J, because that's how much energy is going in.  The wasted energy is 75J, so the rest of the 250J must be the useful energy . . . (250J - 75J) = 175J useful energy.

(useful energy) / (energy supplied) =  (175J) / (250J) = <em>70% efficiency</em>

================================

<u>Way #2: </u>

How much of the energy is wasted ? . . . 75J wasted

What percentage of the Input is that 75J ? . . . 75/250 = 30% wasted

30% of the input energy is wasted.  That leaves the other <em>70%</em> to be useful energy.
