Physics
1 answer:
Elina [12.6K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1.) Longitudinal waves

2.) Transverse waves

3.) Longitudinal waves

Explanation:

The sound of one whale calling another whale underwater.  is a longitudinal wave since the medium, in this case the body of water, is vibrating parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.

A pulse sent down a stretched rope by snapping one end of it. ( transverse wave) because its oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of the wave or path of propagation

The vibrations in a guitar string

Longitudinal wave. Because its oscillations are parallel to the direction of the wave or path of propagation

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

r = 16 Km

Explanation:

given  

m_n= 1.67 x 10^-27 Kg

M_star = 3.88 x 10^30 Kg  

A= M_star/m_n

A= 3.88*10^30/1.67 x 10^-27

A=2.28 *10^57  neutrons                           A = The number of neutrons  

we use the number of neutrons as a mass number because the star has only neutrons. = 1.2 x 10-15 m

r = r_o*A^1/3

r = 1.2*10^-15*2.28 *10^57^1/3

r = 16 Km

A 0.5-kg ball moving at 5 m/s strikes a wall and rebounds in the opposite direction with a speed of 2 m/s. If the impulse occurs
mart [117]

<em>Given that:</em>

                       mass of the ball (m) = 0.5 Kg ,

                    ball strikes the wall (v₁) = 5 m/s ,

rebounds in opposite direction (v₂) = 2 m/s,

                                time duration (t) = 0.01 s,

        <em> Determine the force (F) = ?</em>

We know that from Newton's II law,

                                <em>F = m. a</em>  Newtons  

                                  (velocity acting in opposite direction, so <em>a = ( (v₁ + v₂)/t</em>

                                   = m × (v₁ + v₂)/t

                                   = 0.5 × (5 + 2)/0.01

                                  = 350 N

<em>The force acting up on the ball is 350 N</em>
