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.

At 4.00 l, an expandable vessel contains 0.864 mol of oxygen gas. how many liters of oxygen gas must be added at constant temper
svet-max [94.6K]

Givens
=====
V = 4.00 L
T = 273oK We're assuming the temperature does not change, just the pressure.
n = 0.864 moles
R = 8.314 joules / mole  * oK
P = ?????

Formula
======
PV = n*R*T
P = n*R*T/V
P = 0.864 * 8.314 * 273 / 4
P = 490 kpa


You have to add 1.6 – 0.864 = 0.736 moles of gas.


We have to assume that the temperature and pressure remain the same when we add the 0.736 moles of gas. We are now looking for the volume.


PV = n*R*T

<span> V = 0.736 * 8.314 * 273 / 490</span>

V = 3.41 L Remember this is at about 4 atmospheres so we have to convert to Standard Pressure.

Total Volume = 3.41 + 4.00 = 4.41


V1 * P1 = V2 * P2

P1 = 490 kPa

P2 = 101 kPa

V1 = 7.41 L

V2 = ????


<span> <span> 7.41* 490 = V2 * 101 V2 = 7.41 * 490 / 101 V2 = 35.94 L </span> </span>


<span>You had 4 L now you need 31.94 more.</span>

A surfer is moving at a constant velocity of 5.2 m/s north relative to a wave which is pushing him west at a constant velocity o
Vika [28.1K]
The speed and distances are directly proportional. Use ratios to solve for vertical y-distance. The ratio of x-distance west to y-distance north equals the x-velocity to y-velocity.

x/y = vx/vy
41/y = 8.6/5.2
41/y = 1.65
41/1.65 = y
24.8 m = y

1. A wave has a wavelength of 5 m and a frequency of 2 Hz. At what speed/velocity does the
yuradex [85]

Answer:

1.10m/s

2.0.1m

3.5Hz

Explanation:

v=velocity, f=frequency and T=wavelength

1.v=ft

v=2x5

=10m

2.v=ft

100=1000T

divide both sides by 1000

T=0.1m

3.v=fT

25=5f

divide both sides by 5

f=5Hz
