Answer:

hey sally!

Explanation:

Sound waves are C) Transverse and longitudinal.

We can say that a wave is produced by the vibrations of the particles of the medium through which it passes.

There are two types of waves: Longitudinal waves and Transverse waves.

Longitudinal Waves: A wave in which the particles of the medium vibrate back and forth in the ‘same direction’ in which the wave is moving. Medium can be solid, liquid or gases. Therefore, sound waves are longitudinal waves.

Transverse Waves: A wave in which the particles of the medium vibrate up and down ‘at right angles’ to the direction in which the wave is moving. These waves are produced only in a solids and liquids but not in gases.

Answer:

Sound waves are longitudinal in nature.

Explanation:

There are many types of waves like transverse, longitudinal, electromagnetic wave etc.

Sound waves are longitudinal in nature. In longitudinal type of wave, the medium particles moves parallel to the propagation of the wave. This type of waves move in the form of compression and rarefaction.

In compression, the particle density at a point is very less while in rarefaction, the particle density at a point is very high.

So, the correct option is (b) "longitudinal wave".

What is the displacement current in the capacitor if the potential difference across the capacitor is increasing at 500,000V/s?

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

$I=2.71\times 10^{-5}\ A$

Explanation:

A 6.0-cm-diameter parallel-plate capacitor has a 0.46 mm gap.

What is the displacement current in the capacitor if the potential difference across the capacitor is increasing at 500,000V/s?

Let given is,

The diameter of a parallel plate capacitor is 6 cm or 0.06 m

Separation between plates, d = 0.046 mm

The potential difference across the capacitor is increasing at 500,000 V/s

We need to find the displacement current in the capacitor. Capacitance for parallel plate capacitor is given by :

$C=\dfrac{A\epsilon_o}{d}\\\\C=\dfrac{\pi r^2\epsilon_o}{d}$ , r is radius

Let I is the displacement current. It is given by :

$I=C\dfrac{dV}{dt}$

Here, $\dfrac{dV}{dt}$ is rate of increasing potential difference

$I=\dfrac{\pi r^2\epsilon_o}{d}\times \dfrac{dV}{dt}\\\\I=\dfrac{\pi (0.03)^2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}{0.46\times 10^{-3}}\times 500000\\\\I=2.71\times 10^{-5}\ A$

So, the value of displacement current is $2.71\times 10^{-5}\ A$ .

Write a statement about the relationship between

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:Just as wavelength and frequency are related to light, they are also related to energy. The shorter the wavelengths and higher the frequency corresponds with greater energy. So the longer the wavelengths and lower the frequency results in lower energy.

Explanation:So, if the wavelength of a light wave is shorter, that means that the frequency will be higher because one cycle can pass in a shorter amount of time. ... That means that longer wavelengths have a lower frequency. Conclusion: a longer wavelength means a lower frequency, and a shorter wavelength means a higher frequency!

Extra explanation: All waves can be defined in terms of their frequency and intensity. c = λν expresses the relationship between wavelength and frequency.
