The correct answer to the question is : Transverse wave.

EXPLANATION :

Before going to answer this question, first we have to understand the longitudinal and transverse wave.

LONGITUDINAL WAVE : A longitudinal wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of wave propagation. It moves in the form of compression and rarefaction.

For instance, sound wave.

TRANSVERSE WAVE : A transverse wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. It moves in the form of crests and troughs.

For instance, the wave created in a pond when a stone is dropped into it.

Hence, the correct answer of this question is transverse wave.

A 5.00 kg object oscillates back and forth at the end ofa spring whose spring constant is 49.3 N/m. An obersever istraveling at
defon

Answer:

5.571 sec

Explanation:

angular frequency = √ (k/m) = √ (49.3 / 5) = 3.14 rad/s

Period To = 2π / angular frequency

Period To = 2π/3.14 = 2 × 3.14 / 3.142 = 2.00 sec which you got

T measured by the observer = To / (√ (1 - (v²/c²))) = 2 / √( 1 - 0.871111) = 2 / 0.35901 = 5.571 sec

t=2.00/(1-√((2.80*10^8)^2/(3.00*10^8)^2))= should have been  ( To / (√ (1 - (v²/c²))).  where To = 2.00 sec

Under what circumstances can energy level transitions occur?
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Energy transition therefore occurs due to the amount of kinetic energy gained by the electrons. The electrons with higher kinetic energy are excited to the higher level (excited state) compare to the electron with low kinetic energy (this energy are energy in the ground state)

Explanation:

Energy level transition occur when light rays strikes a metal surface to emit electron from the surface, a term known as photoelectric effect. This amount of electron emitted from the surface depends on the speed of light ray striking the metal surface.

Energy transition therefore occurs due to the amount of kinetic energy gained by the electrons. The electrons with higher kinetic energy are excited to the higher level (excited state) compare to the electron with low kinetic energy (this energy are energy in the ground state)

What force causes a falling object to gain kinetic energy?
hoa [83]

Answer:

Gravitational Potential Energy

Explanation:

As an object falls from rest, its gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Conservation of energy as a tool permits the calculation of the velocity just before it hits the surface.

A charged particle A exerts a force of 2.45 μN to the right on charged particle B when the particles are 12.2 mm apart. Particle
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

F_2 = 1.10 \mu N

Explanation:

As we know that the electrostatic force is a based upon inverse square law

so we have

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

now since it depends inverse on the square of the distance so we can say

\frac{F_1}{F_2} = \frac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}

now we know that

r_2 = 18.2 mm

r_1 = 12.2 mm

also we know that

F_1 = 2.45 \mu N

now from above equation we have

F_2 = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2} F_1

F_2 = \frac{12.2^2}{18.2^2}(2.45\mu N)

F_2 = 1.10 \mu N
