<h3>Longitudinal Waves:</h3>
  1. Longitudinal waves are waves in which particles moves in the direction parallel to the direction of wave.
  2. Longitudinal wave are one directional waves.
  3. Sound waves and tension force applied on spring are examples of longitudinal waves.
<h3>Transverse Waves:</h3>
  1. Transverse waves in which particles move perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
  2. Transverse wave are two directional waves.
  3. Ripples formed on water and all electromagnetic waves are examples of transverse waves.

Which four equations can be used to solve for acceleration
emmainna [20.7K]

The four equations for acceleration are obtained from the three equations of motion and from second law of motion.

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. So the change in velocity with respect to time can be determined using the three equations of motions.

So from the first equation of motion, v = u + at , we can determine the value of acceleration if time taken, final and initial velocity is known. The equation can be re-written as a = \frac{v-u}{t}

Similarly, from the second equation of motion, s = ut + 1/2 at², we can determine the equation for acceleration as a = 2*\frac{s-ut}{t^{2} }

So this is second equation for acceleration.

Then from the third equation of motion, v^{2}- u^{2} = 2* a *s

the acceleration equation is determined as a = \frac{v^{2}-u^{2}  }{2s}

In addition to these three equation, another equation is present to determine the acceleration with respect to force from the Newton's second law of motion. F = Mass × acceleration. From this, acceleration = Force/mass.

So, these are the four equations for acceleration.

Two loudspeakers placed 8.0 m apart are driven in phase by an audio oscillator whose frequency range is 2.2 kHz to 2.9 kHz. A po
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The answer to the question is 2.2khz

Explanation:

<em>Let z₁ = 5.4m</em>

<em>Let z₂ = 4.6m</em>

<em>The path difference Δz = z₁-z₂ = 5.4 - 4.6 = 0.8m</em>

<em>For the interference= Δz λ, 2λ, 3λ......</em>

<em>The wavelength λ = 0.8m</em>

<em>The speed of sound v = 344m/s</em>

<em>The frequency f = v/λ = 344/0.8 = 430hz</em>

<em>Now,</em>

<em>f₁ =f, f₂= 2f, f₃ = 3f, f₄= 4f, f₅ =5f which is,</em>

<em>f₁ =f = 430Hz, f₂=2f =860Hz, f₃ =3f =1290Hz f₄ =4f =1720Hz and f₅=5f =2150Hz</em>

<em>f5 = 2120Hz = 2.200Hz </em>

<em>we will convert to two significant figures =2.2kHz</em>

How do you find the weight of an object when given the mass and acceleration?
murzikaleks [220]

Weight of an object is given by the formula W = m x g , where

m : mass of the object

g : gravitational acceleration

It is <u>independent of the horizontal </u><u>acceleration</u>.  

<h3>What do we mean by weight of an object?</h3>

Weight is a gauge of how strongly gravity is<u> pulling something down.</u> It is dependent on the object's mass, or how much matter it consists of. It also depends on the <u>object's uniformly distributed</u> downward acceleration caused by gravity.

This equation can be used to express weight:

 W = m x g

<h3>What is the difference between weight and mass of an object?</h3>

In everyday speech, the phrases "mass" and "weight" are frequently used interchangeably; nevertheless, the two concepts don't have the same meaning. In contrast to weight, which is a <u>measurement of</u> how the <u>force</u> of gravity works upon a mass, mass is the <u>amount of substance</u> in a material.

If a pebble is being transported in a stream by rolling, how does the velocity of it compare to the velocity of the stream?
AleksandrR [38]
Streams carry sediment, like pebbles, in their flows. The pebbles can be in a variety of locations in the flow, depending on it's size, the balance between the upwards velocity on the pebble (drag and lift forces), and it's settling velocity.
