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

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Tangential speed=5.4 m/s

Radial acceleration= $88.6m/s^2$

Explanation:

We are given that

Angular speed=2.59 rev/s

We know that

1 revolution= $2\pi rad$

2.59 rev= $2\pi\times 2.59=5.18\pi=5.18\times 3.14=16.27 rad/s$

By using $\pi=3.14$

Angular velocity= $\omega=16.27rad/s$

Distance from axis=r=0.329 m

Tangential speed= $r\omega=16.27\times 0.329=5.4m/s$

Radial acceleration= $\frac{v^2}{r}$

Radial acceleration= $\frac{(5.4)^2}{0.329}=88.6m/s^2$

Answer:

A) Spherically symmetric about a point in the constellation Sagittarius and concentrated in that direction

Explanation:

The globular clusters are present mainly in the direction of Sagittarius with the center of the system of globular cluster being measured as a spherical cluster cloud such that the center of the Milky Way can be taken as being in the Sagittarius constellation

Each time the heart beats,what does it do to the blood

Tom [10]

Your blood runs through your blood stream, every vein in your body. without that heartbeat the blood would not make it to the required places it needs to run to and you will lose oxygen and parts of your body and organs will shut down.
