I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Which of the following statements is true with regard to transverse and longitudinal waves?

Physics
1 answer:
pishuonlain [190]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Transverse waves have motion perpendicular to velocity, while longitudinal waves have motion parallel to velocity.

Explanation:

Transverse waves are characterized by the fact that the particles of the medium in which they propagate move transversely to the direction of propagation of the wave.

In other words,<u> its displacement is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave</u>, being a good example the circular waves in the water.

On the other hand, Longitudinal waves are characterized by the fact that <u>the oscillation of the particles in the medium is parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.</u> A good example of this is the sound wave.

How is an anion formed?
Trava [24]

Answer:

Cations (positively-charged ions) and anions (negatively-charged ions) are formed when a metal loses electrons, and a nonmetal gains those electrons. The electrostatic attraction between the positives and negatives brings the particles together and creates an ionic compound, such as sodium chloride.

The temperature and pressure at the surface of Mars during a Martian spring day were determined to be -41 oC and 900 Pa, respect
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Part a)

\rho = 0.0205 kg/m^3

Part b)

\rho = 1.22 kg/m^3

So density of atmosphere at Martian Surface is very less than the density at Earth.

Explanation:

Part a)

As per ideal gas equation we know that

PM = \rho RT

here we know that Martian atmosphere is equivalent to that of carbon

so we will have

P = 900 Pa

T = 273 - 41 = 232 K

now we will have

(900)(0.044) = \rho (8.31)(232)

\rho = 0.0205 kg/m^3

Part b)

Now for the earth surface the density of air is given for

P = 101.6 kPa

T = 18 ^oC

so we will have

PM = \rho RT

(101.6\times 10^3)(0.029) = \rho(8.31)(273 + 18)

\rho = 1.22 kg/m^3

So density of atmosphere at Martian Surface is very less than the density at Earth.

1. An excited lithium atom emits a red light with wavelength a = 671nm. What is the corresponding photon energy? hc (6.63 x 10-3
Rudiy27

Answer:

 E = 2,964 10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

The energy of the photons is given by the Planck relation

          E = h f

the speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

          c = λ f

we substitute

          E = h c /λ

let's reduce the magnitude to the SI system

          λ = 671 nm = 671 10⁻⁹ m

let's calculate

          E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ /671 10⁻⁹

          E = 2,964 10⁻¹⁹ J
