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.

If a rock is thrown upward on the planet Mars with a velocity of 15 m/s, its height above the ground (in meters) after t seconds
s2008m [1.1K]

(a) The velocity (in m/s) of the rock after 1 second is 11.28 m/s.

(b) The velocity of the rock after 2 seconds is 7.56 m/s.

(c) The time for the block to hit the surface is 4.03.

(d) The velocity of the block at the maximum height is 0.

<h3>Velocity of the rock</h3>

The velocity of the rock is determined as shown below;

Height of the rock after 1 second; H(t) = 15(1) - 1.86(1)² = 13.14 m

v² = u² - 2gh

where;

  • g is acceleration due to gravity in mars = 3.72 m/s²

v² = (15)² - 2(3.72)(13.14)

v² = 127.23

v = √127.23

v = 11.28 m/s

<h3>Velocity of the rock when t = 2 second</h3>

v = dh/dt

v = 15 - 3.72t

v(2) = 15 - 3.72(2)

v(2) = 7.56 m/s

<h3>Time for the rock to reach maximum height</h3>

dh/dt = 0

15 - 3.72t = 0

t = 4.03 s

<h3>Velocity of the rock when it hits the surface</h3>

v = u - gt

v = 15 - 3.72(4.03)

v = 0

Consider five atoms from the second period : lithium , beryllium , boron , carbon , and nitrogen , which of these elements has t
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Lithium has the lowest electronegativity.

Explanation:

Electronegativity measures the tendency of an atom to attract the bonding pair of electrons. As we move left to right in a period, the number of shell remains same but the number of electron increases(negative charge increases. Hence, electronegativity also increases.

As Lithium is the left most element in this period. It has the lowest electronegativity value which is equal to 0.98.
