1. a. longitudinal waves.
There are two types of waves:
- Transverse waves: in transverse waves, the oscillations of the wave occur in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave
- Longitudinal waves: in longitudinal waves, the oscillations of the waves occur parallel to the direction in which the waves are travelling.
So, these types of waves are called longitudinal waves.
2. d. a medium
There are two types of waves:
- Electromagnetic waves: these waves are produced by the oscillations of electric and magnetic field, and they can travel both in a medium and also in a vacuum (they do not need a medium to propagate)
- Mechanical waves: these waves are produced by the oscillations of the particles in a medium, so they need a medium to propagate - therefore, the correct choice is d. a medium
3. a. AM/FM radio
Analogue signals consist of continuous signals, which vary in a continuous range of values. On the contrary, digital signals consist of discrete signals, which can assume only some discrete values. For AM and FM radios, signals are transmitted by using analogue signals.
Answer:
15 m/s
Explanation:
Speed(m/s) = distance(m)/time(s)
distance = 216 km = 216,000 m
time = 4 hours = 14,400 s
speed = 216000/14400 = 15 m/s
Answer: The correct answer is option (D).
Explanation:
Voltmeter is a device which measures the the voltage applied across the circuit. It is an electrical instrument used to measure the electric potential between the two points in an electric circuit.
Where as:
A switch is the device which used to connect or disconnect the circuit.
Resistor is a device which opposes the flow of current is an electric circuit.
An ammeter the is an electrical device which measures the amount of current in flowing in amperes in an electrical circuit
Hence,the correct answer is option (D).
