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.

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.

Explanation:

To design the experiment of measuring the critical angle, we describe the phenomenon, when the light passes from a medium with a higher refractive index to one with a lower index, it separates from the normal one and the Critical Angle is defined as the Angle for which the refraction occurs at 90º

            n₂ sin θ₂ = n₁ sin 90

           n₁ / n₂ = sin θ₂

As we can see, we have to measure the angle with which the laser touches the exit surface of the glass block.

Design of the experiment:

    We place the glass block on the ramp and at the top we hit the conveyor for half the angle, we climb the block on the ramp and see that the angle of incidence of lightning on the exit face changes, part of the beam comes out of the glass , we see it by dispersion in the particles of dirty in the air; Maybe the conveyor or the laser should be moved slightly so that the beam touches the point of origin on the conveyor.

   

   When we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.

a transmission-line cable, of length 3 km, consists of 19 strands of identical copper conductors, each 1.5 mm in diameter. becau
Ivan

the resistance of the cable is 582.9 ohms

we are given the length of the cable which is  3 km,  of  1.5 mm in, the diameter  and resistivity of copper which is 1.72 m

The formula  we are referring to for calculating the resistance of the  cable is

R = ρl/A.

As there are 19 strands of copper conductors, so the resistance will be

R = 19( ρl/A)

Here  ρ is the resisitivity =  1.72 , l is the length  = 3(1+0.05)*10³3= 3150 m

A=pie/4(1.5 x 10⁻³)^2 =1.766 x 10⁻⁶ =1.766 x 10^-6

Substituting the values in the formula  we  get

R = 19 ( 1.72*3150 )/1.766 x 10⁻⁶

 = 582.9 ohm

If distance between two charges increased by 2 times then force
kati45 [8]

Explanation:

The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value.

what is the value of the constant for a second order reaction if the reactant concentration drops from .657 M to ,0981 M in 17 s
yaroslaw [1]

Answer : The value of the constant for a second order reaction is, 0.51M^{-1}s^{-1}

Explanation :

The expression used for second order kinetics is:

kt=\frac{1}{[A_t]}-\frac{1}{[A_o]}

where,

k = rate constant = ?

t = time = 17s

[A_t] = final concentration = 0.0981 M

[A_o] = initial concentration = 0.657 M

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

k\times 17s=\frac{1}{0.0981M}-\frac{1}{0.657M}

k=0.51M^{-1}s^{-1}

Therefore, the value of the constant for a second order reaction is, 0.51M^{-1}s^{-1}
