Answer:

Sound waves and earthquake P-waves are longitudinal waves.

Explanation:

Longitudinal waves are waves in which the displacement through the medium is in the same direction of movement of the wave, independent of the direction.

There are included in the concept of longitudinal wave: sound waves (vibrations in pressure, particle displacement and velocity of particles propagated in an elastic medium) and earthquake waves of type P (created by earthquakes and explosions).

The brain mass of a human fetus during a particular trimester can be accurately estimated from the circumference of the head by

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

a. If c = 20 cm, then the mass of the brain is m = 5 g.

b. At c = 20 cm, the brain's mass is increasing at a rate of 15.75 g/cm.

Explanation:

From the equation

$m\left(c\right) = \frac{c^3}{100}-\frac{1500}{c}$

we have

a. for c = 20 cm

$m\left(20\right)=\frac{20^3}{100}-\frac{1500}{20}=5,$

then the mass is m(20) = 5 g.

b. In order to find the rate of change, first we derivate

$\frac{dm}{dc}=\frac{3c^2}{100}+\frac{1500}{c^2}.$

Evaluated at c = 20 cm, we have

$\frac{dm}{dc}|_{c=20}=\frac{3\times 20^2}{100}+\frac{1500}{20^2}=15.75.$

So, at c = 20 cm, the mass of the brain is increasing at a rate of 15.75 g/cm.
