when wave propagate through the medium the medium particles have two type of possible motions

1) Transverse Waves : here medium particles will move perpendicular to wave propagation and they pull and push perpendicular to the length

2) Longitudinal wave : here medium particles will move to and fro along the length of the medium and the medium particles will push and pull together along the length of the string.

So here in two types of wave motion it will depends on the medium type as well as it will depend on the source how is wave produced.

So the given type of wave in which particles push together and pull apart the wave must be longitudinal wave.

Explain briefly why metals are good conductors of electric current

Mice21 [21]

The free electrons in metals can move through the metal, all while receiving and losing electrons, allowing metals to conduct electricity. Example: copper is a great conductor of electric current.

A sports car accelerates from rest for 5 seconds reaching a velocity of 23.0 m/s.

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

a is the acceleration

Since the body is from rest u = 0

From the question we have

$a = \frac{23 - 0}{5} = \frac{23}{5} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

A man attempts to pick up his suitcase of weight ws by pulling straight up on the handle. (See Figure 1) However, he is unable t

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Normal force, $N = W_s - F$

Explanation:

Let $w_s$ is the weight of suitcase. A man attempts to pick up his suitcase by pulling straight up on the handle. The weight of the suitcase in downward direction. The normal force is acting in upward direction. Let F is the force with which it is pulled straight up.

So, the normal force is given by :

$N = W_s - F$

N = mg - F

mg is the weight of the suitcase.

Hence, this is the required solution.
