Complete sentence:

A longitudinal wave is a type of wave that transfers energy parallel to the direction of wave motion. A transverse wave, on the other hand, is a type of wave that transfers energy perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.

Explanation

the main difference between longitudinal and transverse wave is the direction of their oscillation/vibration. In a longitudinal wave, the oscillation of the wave occurs in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave, while in a transverse wave, the oscillation occurs in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation. An example of transverse waves are the electromagnetic waves, which consists of an electric field and a magnetic field that oscillates perpendicular to the direction of the wave, while an example of longitudinal waves are the sound waves, whose particles vibrate in a direction parallel to the direction of motion of the wave, producing regions of more density of particles (called compressions) and regions of less density of particles (called rarefactions).

The upward force exerted on an object falling through air is _____.
stira [4]

(C) Air Resistance

<u>Explanation:</u>

When an object falls through air, air resistance acts on it in upward direction. When air resistance acts, acceleration during a fall will be less than g because air resistance affects the motion of the falling objects by slowing it down. Air resistance depends on two important factors - the speed of the object and its surface area. Increasing the surface area of an object decreases its speed.

A mine car (mass=390 kg) rolls at a speed of 0.50 m/s on a horizontal track, as the drawing shows. A 250-kg chunk of coal has a
Nady [450]

Answer:

v=0.60 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m ₁= 390 kg ,u ₁= 0.5 m/s

m₂ = 250 kg ,u₂ = 0.76 m/s

As we know that if there is no any external force on the system the total linear momentum of the system will be conserve.

Pi = Pf

m ₁u ₁+m₂u₂ = (m₂ + m ₁ ) v

Now putting the values in the above equation

390 x 0.5 + 250 x 0.76 = (390 + 250 ) v

v=\dfrac{390\times 0.5+250\times 0.76}{390+250}\ m/s

v=0.60 m/s

Therefore the velocity of the system will be 0.6 m/s.
