<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

A surface wave is a wave that moves along the interface of two different materials, like air and water.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

A surface wave (from its name) travels on a surface that is found between two different materials.

The motion of the particles of a surface wave is either in the form of ellipse (elliptical motion) or circle (circular motion.

The motion of the particles of a surface wave is considered to be a combination of both transversal motion and longitudinal motion.

Hope this helps :)

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Ф = 142.674 degree

Ф = 2.490131057 rad

wavelength  = 0.396316 λ

Explanation:

Given data

combined wave having an amplitude 0.64 times

to find out

answer in degrees,  radians, and fraction of the wavelength

solution

let us consider these two wave equation

Asin(ωt) and the Asin (ωt + Ф)

and here Ф is phase difference

so we say

resultant wave is

Y = Asin(ωt) + Asin (ωt + Ф) =  Asin(ωt + Ф/2) cos ( Ф/2)

so Y = A' sin(ωt + Ф/2)

we know that here resultant wave amplitude is 2A cos ( Ф/2)

so

put A= 0.64 A

so 2Acos ( Ф/2)  = 0.64 A

and Ф/2  = 71.3370

Ф = 142.674 degree

Ф = 2.490131057 rad

so wavelength is  2.490131057 /  2π

wavelength  = 0.396316 λ

A boy throws a ball into the air at 10.2 m/s. Assuming that only gravity acts on the ball, how high does it rise, in m?
ozzi
Answer: 5.31 meters

Explanation: Use conservation of energy. Initial energy equals final energy. Initially, there is only kinetic energy (because height = 0 initially). At the end, kinetic energy equals 0 because at max height, there is max potential energy and the ball stops moving for a split second.

mgh = .5mv^2
Masses cancel out
gh = .5v^2
(9.8)(h) = .5(10.2^2)
Solve for h. h = 5.31 meters

Why does sound propagate faster in solid bodies than in liquids and faster in liquids than in air?
storchak [24]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

this is because particles in solids are packed very closely together, thus , the particles collide with each other frequently and thus transfer of energy is faster. however, particles in liquid are closely packed but not as close as in solid so the particles do not collide as frequently. thus, transfer of energy slower than in solid. furthermore, the particles in gas are spaced far apart from each other, thus the particles don't collide with each other frequently, thus transfer of energy is very slow in gas.

hope you get it,

please mark
