The particles of the medium (slinky in this case) move up and down (choice #2) in a transverse wave scenario.
This is the defining characteristic of transverse waves, like particles on the surface of water while a wave travels on it, or like particles in a slack rope when someone sends a wave through by giving it a jolt.
The other kind of waves is longitudinal, where the particles of the medium move "left-and-right" along the direction of the wave propagation. In the case of the slinky, this would be achieved by giving a tensioned slinky an "inward" jolt. You would see that such a jolt would give rise to a longitudinal wave traveling along the length of the tensioned slinky. Another example of longitudinal waves are sound waves.
Answer:
only the weight of the ball will act on the ball
Explanation: There is no contact force on the ball. Also there is no air resistance on the ball so the friction force on the ball due to air is not shown
Answer: For the first part the answer is Radio Waves and the second part’s answer is gamma ray.
Answer:
E
Explanation:
A vector is a physical quantity that has magnitude and direction while a scalar is a physical quantity that has magnitude only
*electric potential is a scalar quantity because it only has magnitude
*electric field and electric force are vector quantities because they have magnitude and direction
The speed of a wave is determined by the product of the frequency and the wavelength; we already have the wavelength and the frequency, so all we need to do is multiply them by each other and use our proper unit of measure.
Velocity (speed) = Frequency x Wavelength
V = 250 x 6
V = 1500
Your answer is 1500 m/s.
I hope this helps!
