Answer:

D.transverse waves move perpendicular and longitudinal waves move parallel to the direction of energy movement

Explanation:

Transverse wave : It is defined as the wave in which the the vibration of the particles of the medium through which the wave travel is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. Example : electromagnetic wave

Longitudinal wave : It is defined as the wave in which the the vibration of the particles of the medium through which the wave travel is parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. example : Sound wave

Which of the following would be the magnitude of the vector given a horizontal component of 30 and a

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the diagonal, or the hypotenuse of an imaginary triangle. 30^2 + 40^2 = 2500, which is 50^2. So, the magnitude is 50.

An object is projected from the ground with an upward speed of ų m/s has a speed of 23m/s when it is at a height of 5m above the

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

25.08m/s

Explanation:

mgh1 + 0.5mv1² = mgh2 + 0.5mv2²

h1 = 0m

v1 = u

h2 = 5m

v2 = 23m/s

putting the values into the formula above;

m(10)(0) + 0.5m(u²) = m(10)(5) + 0.5m(23²)

0 + 0.5mu² = 50m + 264.5m

0.5mu² = 314.5m

dividing through by m

0.5u² = 314.5

u² = 629

u = 25.08m/s

Therefore, the initial speed "u" = 25m/s

The speed of sound is 346 m/s. If a sound wave travels at a frequency of 55 Hz, what would its wavelength be?

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

6.29 meters.

Explanation:

, where v is the speed of wave and f is the frequency of wave.

We are given that ,

The speed of sound is 346 m/s.

i..e v=346 m/s

A sound wave travels at a frequency of 55 H.

i..e f=55

the wavelength would be 6.29 meters.

At a certain point in space, there is a potential of 800 V relative to zero. What is the potential energy of the system when a +

sammy [17]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to electric potential and electric potential energy. By definition we know that the electric potential is determined under the function:

$V = \frac{k_e q}{r}$

$k_e$ = Coulomb's constant

q = Charge

r = Radius

At the same time

$U = \frac{k_e q_1q_2}{r}$

The values of variables are the same, then if we replace in a single equation we have this expression,

$U = Vq$

If we replace the values, we have finally that the charge is,

$V = 800V$

$q = 1\mu C$

$U = (800V)(1*10^{-6}C)$

$U = 8*10^{-4}J$

Therefore the potential energy of the system is $8*10^{-4} J$
