Sound waves traveling through air are indeed longitudinal waves with compressions and rarefactions. As sound passes through air (or any fluid medium), the particles of air do not vibrate in a transverse manner.

Answer:

ectron's further from the nucleus are held more weakly by the nucleus, and thus can be removed by spending less energy. Hence we say they have higher energy. The Coulomb interaction energy between a nucleus of atomic number and an ele

A girl is sitting in a sled sliding horizontally along some snow (there is friction present).

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

159 N

Explanation:

The force of friction is a resistive force that acts against an object in motion (or on the verge of moving).

There are two types of force of friction:

Force of static friction: it occurs when the object is still at rest
Force of kinetic friction: it occurs when the object is sliding on a surface and it is in motion

In this problem, we are in the 2nd situation, so we want to calculate the force of kinetic friction.

This force is given by:

$F=\mu_k N$
