A transverse wave is characterized by _____.

Physics
2 answers:
Damm [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Peaks

Explanation:

- A transverse wave is a wave in which the oscillation occurs in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave

- A longitudinal wave is a wave in which the oscillation occurs in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave

In a transverse wave, the highest and the lowest points of the wave are determined by the presence of crests (peaks) and troughs. On the contrary, in a longitudinal wave, the wave consists of alternating regions of higher particle density (called compressions) and of lower particle density (called rarefactions).

Therefore, the correct answer is

peaks

A proton moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B at a speed of 2.30 107 m/s and experiences an acceleration of 1.70 10
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the following :

Speed (V) = speed of 2.30×10^7 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 1.70×10^13 m/s^2

Using the right hand rule provided by  Lorentz law:

B = F / qvSinΘ

Where B = magnitude of the magnetic field

v = speed of the particle

Θ = 90° (perpendicular to the field)

q = charge of the particle

SinΘ = sin90°  = 1

Note F = ma

Therefore,

B = ma / qvSinΘ

Mass of proton = 1.67 × 10^-27

Charge = 1.6 × 10^-19 C

B = [(1.67 × 10^-27) × (1.70 × 10^13)] / (1.6 × 10^-19) × (2.30 × 10^7) × 1

B = 2.839 × 10^-14 / 3.68 × 10^-12

B = 0.7715 × 10^-2

B = 7.72 × 10^-3 T

2) Magnetic field will be in the negative y direction according to the right hand thumb rule.

Since Velocity is in the positive z- direction, acceleration in the positive x - direction, then magnetic field must be in the negative y-direction.

give an example of motion in which displacement of the particle is zero but acceleration is not zero in journey?
BartSMP [9]

Motion of a ball thrown by a person upwards and caught after some time is an example of motion in which displacement of the particle is zero but acceleration is not zero in journey.

The displacement of the ball is zero because the starting and end point of the motion are same, i.e, the person's hands.During its motion, the acceleration of ball is constant and non zero called as acceleration due to gravity, g= -9.8 m/s². The velocity of ball is continuously changing. It first decreases during the upward motion of the ball and then increases during the downward journey.The acceleration remains constant and non zero all the time.

A playground slide is in the form of an arc of a circle with a maximum height of 3.0 m, with a radius of 8.5 m, and with the gro
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

a) s \approx 6.676\,m

Explanation:

a) Let assume that the ground is not inclined, since the bottom of the playground slide is tangent to ground. Then, the length of given by the definition of a circular arc:

s = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot R

s=\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (8.5\,m)

s \approx 6.676\,m

The bottom of the slide has a height of zero. The physical phenomenon around Dr. Ritchey's daughter is modelled after Principle of Energy Conservation. The child begins at rest:

U_{g,A} = K_{B} + W_{fr}

m\cdot g \cdot h_{A} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{B}^{2} + f\cdot s

The average frictional force is cleared within the expression:

f = \frac{m\cdot (g\cdot h_{A}-\frac{1}{2}\cdot v_{B}^{2})}{s}

f = \frac{(12\,kg)\cdot [(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (3\,m)-\frac{1}{2}\cdot (4.5\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} ]}{6.676\,m}

f = 34.684\,N
