Answer:
Transverse waves are always characterized by particle motion being perpendicular to wave motion. A longitudinal wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves.
Explanation:
The movement of the medium is different. In the longitudinal wave, the medium moves left to right, while in thee transverse wave, the medium moves vertically up and down. Longitudinal waves have a compression and rarefaction, while the transverse wave has a crest and a trough. Longitudinal waves have a pressure variation, transverse waves don't have pressure variation. Longitudinal waves can be propagated in solids, liquids and gases, transverse waves can only be propagated in solids and on the surfaces of liquids. Longitudinal waves have a change in density throughout the medium, transverse waves don't.
Answer:
D. the masses of the objects and the distance between them
Explanation:
Gravitation is a force, a force doesn't care about the shape or density of objects, only about their masses... and distances.
And you can get it using the following equation:
Where :
G is the universal gravitational constant
: G = 6.6726 x 10-11N-m2/kg2
m represent the mass of each of the two objects
d is the distance between the centers of the objects.
Answer:
1375J
Explanation:
The gravitational potential/potential energy of the at the top of the tree which is the energy by virtue of its position.
P.E = mgh
mass = m
Acceleration due to gravity = g
height = h
At the top of the tree, the value of h (height) is high resulting in the gravitational potential. When the cat lands on the ground, the value of h is zero, the the gravitational potential would be zero and all the potential energy have been converted to other forms of energy.
Therefore, the total gravitational potential store is equal to the maximum amount of energy that can be transferred which is equal to 1375J.
Answer:
Principle of conservation of linear momentum is state as provided no external force acts on a system of colliding bodies the total linear momentum of the bodies (in a given direction) remains constant
