The separation in time between the arrival of primary and secondary wave is called LAG TIME.
The time difference between the arrival of primary wave and secondary wave in a seismogram is called lag time. The primary wave always travels faster than the secondary wave, thus the difference between the two can be obtained by estimating the difference between the arrival time of the two waves/.
Answer:
A) Propagation of pressure fluctuations in a medium
B) air is the medium in which the wave is transported,
Explanation:
Part A.
A sound wave is a longitudinal oscillation of the molecules that forms in a material medium, they can be solid, liquid or gases, therefore the wave propagates in the same direction as the oscillation of the particles.
The most correct answer is:
* Propagation of pressure fluctuations in a medium
Part b
air is the medium in which the wave is transported, otherwise it cannot propagate
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Answer A: A surface wave is a wave that travels along the surface of a medium.
Answer B, C: Electromagnetic waves are waves that have no medium to travel whereas mechanical waves need a medium for its transmission.
Answer D: The sentence in the answer D does not fit to the blank in the definition ( of the question )

Hope this answer can help you.
Answer:
Options d and e
Explanation:
The pendulum which will be set in motion are those which their natural frequency is equal to the frequency of oscillation of the beam.
We can get the length of the pendulums likely to oscillate with the formula;
where g=9.8m/s
ω= 2rad/s to 4rad/sec
when ω= 2rad/sec
L = 2.45m
when ω= 4rad/sec
L = 9.8/16
L=0.6125m
L is between 0.6125m and 2.45m.
This means only pendulum lengths in this range will oscillate.Therefore pendulums with length 0.8m and 1.2m will be strongly set in motion.
Have a great day ahead
