For each type of wave compare the vibration of the medium to the direction of the wave

1 answer:

5 0

There are two types of mechanical waves:

longitudinal waves : Their displacement is in a direction perpendicular to the vibrations of the wave forming crests and troughs.

Transverse waves : They have the vibrations in the direction of the wave forming compressions and rarefactions.

a car whose mass is 1000kg is traveling at a constant speed of 10m/s. Neglecting any friction how much force will the engine hav

AURORKA [14]

This next statement is a big deal. It should be up on a board, surrounded
by flashing red and yellow lights, and hung on the wall of every Science
classroom. Although we never see it in our daily lives, it's fundamental to
the workings of the universe, and it's also Newton's first law of motion:

Without friction, it doesn't take ANY force to keep a moving object
moving. Force is only required to change the object's speed, or to
change the direction in which it's moving.

The answer to the question is: On a level road, and neglecting any friction,
the engine doesn't have to supply ANY force to keep the car going at the
same speed.

Our milky way galaxy is 100000 lyly in diameter. a spaceship crossing the galaxy measures the galaxy's diameter to be a mere 1.

The speed of the spaceship relative to the galaxy is 0.99999995c.

A light-year measures distance rather than time (as the name might imply). A light-year is a distance a light beam travels in one year on Earth, which is roughly 6 trillion miles (9.7 trillion kilometers). One light-year equals 5,878,625,370,000 miles. Light moves at a speed of 670,616,629 mph (1,079,252,849 km/h) in a vacuum.We multiply this speed by the number of hours in a year to calculate the distance of a light-year (8,766).

The Milky way galaxy is 100,000 light years in diameter.

The galaxy's diameter is a mere 1. 0 ly.
