Compare and contrast transverse and longitudinal waves

Physics
2 answers:
Nataliya [291]3 years ago
5 0

In both transverse and longitudinal waves; energy is transferred in form of a wave.

The difference between transverse and longitudinal waves is that:

In transverse waves; the displacement of the medium is perpendicular to the propagation of the waves.

In longitudinal waves; the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of the waves.

<em>Compare:</em>Longitudinal and transverse waves are mechanical waves, so both carry energy through particles of matter.

<em>Contrast:</em> Longitudinal waves transfer energy parallel to the direction of wave motion, and transverse waves transfer energy perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.

The temperature of a 2.0kg block increases by 5C when 2000 J of thermal energy are added to the block. What is the specific heat
vitfil [10]

Explanation:

Q=mc(T2-T1)

or

q = mcΔT ,

where m is the mass of the sample,

c is the specific heat,

and ΔT is the temperature change.

Q=2.0 × 2000 × 5

Q=20000J⋅kg −1 ⋅K −1
