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 ball is thrown striaght up in the air and then falls back to earth. if the downward fall takes 2.2s, how fast is the ball trav
lapo4ka [179]

The velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground, given the data is 21.56 m/s

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Time to reach ground from maximum height (t) = 2.2 s
  • Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Final velocity (v) =?

<h3>How to determine the velocity when the ball strikes the ground</h3>

The velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground can be obtained as illustrated below:

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 2.2)

v = 0 + 21.56

v = 21.56 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground is 21.56 m/s

Help with speed problems #1-3
-Dominant- [34]
1. Each plot represents the meters traveled by both the Hare and the Tortoise over a certain period of time (minutes).

2. The Tortoise lines show it lines is steadily increasing over a period of time. So as more time elapses the faster the tortoise becomes it travels more meters. The Tortoise line shows steady acceleration.

3. The Hare in the first 5 minutes had a rapid fast advancement up to 40 meters. But for the 5-20 mins. period the Hare did not move at all. Its speed stayed at the same place. But towards the end 20-25 mins. marks the Hare started moving again. At the end the Hare at first had a rapid acceleration but stopped for a long time then it sped up briefly.
