Match each characteristic with the type of wave it corresponds to. Longitudinal waves Transverse waves The direction the wave tr

avels is parallel to the displacement of the medium. Electromagnetic waves are an example of this type of wave. Sound waves are an example of this type of wave. If the wave propagates in the x‑direction, the medium is also disturbed in the x‑direction. If the wave propagates in the x‑direction, the medium is disturbed in the y‑ and/or z‑direction. The direction the wave travels is perpendicular to the displacement of the medium.

Answer:

The properties are matched with the waves below;

Longitudinal :

  • The direction the wave travels is parallel to the displacement of the medium.
  • Sound waves are an example of this type of wave.
  • If the wave propagates in the x‑direction, the medium is also disturbed in the x‑direction

Transverse waves:

  • Electromagnetic waves are an example of this type of wave.
  • If the wave propagates in the x‑direction, the medium is disturbed in the y‑ and/or z‑direction.
  • The direction the wave travels is perpendicular to the displacement of the medium.

Explanation:

Longitudinal waves: These are waves in which the direction of propagation of waves is same as the direction of displacement of the medium. Examples are sound waves, seismic P waves and ultasound waves.

Transverse waves: These are waves in which the direction of propagation of waves is perpendicular to the direction of particle vibration. Examples are vibration on a spring, water waves, light waves.

Answer:The direction the wave travels is parallel to the displacement of the medium.LW.

Electromagnetic waves are an example of this type of wave. TW

Sound waves are an example of this type of wave.LW

Ir the wave propagates in the x‑direction, the medium is also disturbed in the x‑direction. LW

If the wave propagates in the x‑direction, the medium is disturbed in the y‑ and/or z‑direction. TW

The direction the wave travels is perpendicular to the displacement of the medium.TW

Explanación:

the main difference of Transversal AND Longitudinal waves (TW AND LW) is that the disturbation direction in the media with respect to the travel direction is well different for both cases. For TW the perturbation oscilatiew perpendicular to propagation direction of the wave.

In constrant for LW the disturbation oscilates in the same direction as the wave is propagating.

What is the reason for the increase and decrease size of the moon and write down in a paragraph.
Arada [10]

Answer:

The reason for the increase or decrease of the moon is <u>due to the angular perception of the moon. </u>

Explanation:

Also called lunar illusion, this phenomenon is due to the position in which the moon is, it can be at the zenith or on the horizon, both distances are different from each other with respect to the position of the person.

The zenith is the highest part of the sky and the horizon the lowest.

When there are landmarks such as trees, buildings or mountains on the horizon, the illusion of closeness is given and the illusion of distance is misinterpreted.

But when looking up at the sky as there is no reference point there will be a failure in the perception of size.

You need to design a photodetector that can respond to the entire range of visible light. True or False
Rasek [7]

Answer: True

Explanation:

A photo detector that can respond to the entire rang of visible light can be design, it is true.

Photo detector is a device in an optical receiver which receives optical signals and convert it to electric signal. It is the key device position in front of the optical receiver.

How do you add scientific notation if the problem is like this:<br>3.72 x 10^9  +  5.46 x 10^8?
Crazy boy [7]
You can only add or subtract numbers in scientific notation if they have
the same power of 10.  If they're different, then you have to change one
to match the other one.

Here are both ways to do your example:

3.72x 10^9 = 37.2x10^8

(37.2 x 10^8)+(5.46 x 10^8) = (37.2+5.46) x 10^8 = 42.66x10^8 = <em>4.266x10^9</em>

=======================

5.46 x 10^8 = 0.546 x 10^9

3.72 x 10^9 + 0.546 x 10^9 = (3.72 + 0.546) x 10^9 = <em>4.266 x 10^9</em>
