Answer: in a medium

Explanation:

Mechanical waves require medium to transfer energy. The medium particles vibrate about their fixed position to transfer energy.  There is no transport of medium particles.

Example, sound waves are mechanical waves. The sound travels through compression and rarefaction of the medium particles.

Answer:

Fringe width = 21 mm

Explanation:

Fringe width is given by the formula

\beta = \frac{\Lambda L}{d}

here we know that

\Lambda = 564 nm

L = 4.0 m

d = 0.108 mm

now from above formula we will have

\beta = \frac{(564 \times 10^{-9})(4.0 m)}{0.108\times 10^{-3}}

\beta = 0.021 meter

so fringe width on the wall will be 21 mm

julia-pushkina [17]
These are the characteristics that apply:

 - In a solution taste sour: which is consequence of the H+ concentration.

- Corrode metals: the H+ ion reacts with the metal producing a salt and water

-Produce hydronium ion in solution: as per the Bronsted - Lowry definition an acid is a substance that donates a proton, H+. This proton will react with H2O to form H3O+ (hydronium), as per this scheme: 

HA + H2O --> A(-) + H3O(+)
