Answer:

The correct answer is a rarefaction.

Explanation:

Sound waves are longitudinal waves that propagate in a medium, such as air. As the vibration continues, a series of successive condensations and rarefactions form and propagate from it. The pattern created in the air is something like a sinusoidal curve to represent a sound wave.

There are peaks in the sine wave at the points where the sound wave has condensations and valleys where it has rarefactions.

Have a nice day!

For a moon orbiting its planet, rp is the shortest distance between the moon and its planet andra is the longest distance betwee
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: D. 0.57

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the eccentricity e of an ellipse is (assuming the moon's orbit in the shape of an ellipse):

e=\frac{r_{a}-r_{p}}{r_{a}+r_{p}}

Where:

r_{a} is the apoapsis (the longest distance between the moon and its planet)

r_{p}=0.27 r_{a} is the periapsis (the shortest distance between the moon and its planet)

Then:

e=\frac{r_{a}-0.27 r_{a}}{r_{a}+0.27 r_{a}}

e=\frac{0.73 r_{a}}{1.27 r_{a}}

e=0.57 This is the moon's orbital eccentricity

Irina18 [472]

In order from shortest to longest frequency, the electromagnetic waves can be ranked :

1. X-rays

2. Ultraviolet

3. Infrared

4. Microwave

X-rays has the shortest frequency which ranges between 30 petahertz to 30 exahertz. X-rays have the smallest wavelengths at 0.01-10 nanometers. Its energy ranges between 100eV to 100keV.
