The horizontal distance between a crest to the next trough of an ocean wave is 5 meters.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

10 meters

Explanation:

A wave is a natural phenomenon that travels through a material medium but does not have a permanent effect on the particles of the medium. It can either be electromagnetic or mechanical. The propagation of a wave can be represented by a sinusoidal graph, which has crests and troughs.

A crest is the point of maximum displacement, while trough is a point of minimum displacement. The distance between two crests or troughs gives the wavelength of the wave.

From the question, the horizontal distance between a crest to the next trough is 5 meters which is half of the wavelength.

Thus wavelength = 5 × 2

                             = 10

The wavelength is 10 meters.

Which of the following solar system objects has the most circular orbit? OEarth OVenus Mercury O Pluto
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Venus - has the most circular orbit .

Explanation:

Eccentricity -

Eccentricity is used to define the circularity of an object .

Lesser the value of eccentricity of the orbit , more circular will be its orbit

and ,

More the value of eccentricity of the orbit , less circular will be its orbit .

In case , the value of eccentricity is zero , the orbit will be a perfect circle.

Hence ,

by considering the eccentricity value of the following plants  as -

Venus 0.007

Earth 0.017

Mercury 0.206

Pluto 0.248

Venus has the most circular orbit , as it has the minimum  eccentricity value , i.e. , 0.007.
