Explain how longitudinal waves and transverse waves are similar to each other and different from each other.

Physics
1 answer:
VashaNatasha [74]3 years ago
3 0
Similar:
-
For transverse waves, the waves move in perpendicular direction to the source of vibration.
For longitudinal waves, the waves move in parallel direction to the source of vibration .
They are similar in the sense that energy is transferred in the form of waves.
-
Difference:
-
Transverse Waves: Displacement of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.
Longitudinal Waves: Displacement of the medium is parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.

A syringe containing 12.0 mL of dry air at 25 C is placed in a sterilizer and heated to 100.0 C. The syringe is sealed, but th

Answer:

15.01 Liters

Explanation:

T₁ = Initial temperature = 25°C = 298.15 K

T₂ = Final temperature = 100°C = 373.15 K

V₁ = Initial volume = 12 mL

Here, pressure is constant so we apply Charles Law

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow {V_2}=\frac{V_1}{T_1}\times T_2\\\Rightarrow {V_2}=\frac{12}{298.15}\times 373.15\\\Rightarrow {V_2}=15.01 L

∴ Final volume at 100°C is 15.01 Liters.

How large amount of energy is produced during the fission of uranium ​
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

answer is a very large amount of energy is produced from a very small mass

Explanation:

nuclear energy is produced either by fusion or fission the former is fusion of lighter atoms into heavier elements while the letter is the splitting of a heavier atom into lighter atoms. both produce tremendous amount of energy fusion causes compassion of mass wild fission reduces it. and produce it. fusion does not produce radioactive particles while fission does (alpha and beta particles and neutrons)

In an engine, an almost ideal gas is compressed adiabatically to half its volume. In doing so, 1850 J of work is done on the gas
hammer [34]

Answer:

The value of change in internal energy of the gas = + 1850 J

Explanation:

Work done on the gas (W) =  - 1850 J

Negative sign is due to work done on the system.

From the first law  we know that Q = Δ U + W ------------- (1)

Where Q = Heat transfer to the gas

Δ U = Change in internal energy of the gas

W = work done on the gas

Since it is adiabatic compression of the gas so heat transfer to the gas is zero.

⇒ Q = 0

So from equation (1)

⇒ Δ U = - W ----------------- (2)

⇒ W = - 1850 J (Given)

⇒ Δ U = - (- 1850)

⇒ Δ U = + 1850 J

This is the value of change in internal energy of the gas.
