What is the main difference between a longitudinal wave and a transverse wave? a longitudinal wave travels faster than a transve

rse wave. a transverse wave always has a larger amplitude than a longitudinal wave. the motion of the medium is parallel to a longitudinal wave and perpendicular to a transverse wave. the frequency is directly proportional to wavelength in a longitudinal wave but inversely proportional in a transverse wave.?

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is the motion of the medium is parallel to a longitudinal wave and perpendicular to a transverse wave.

<u>Explanation:</u>

There are two main types of waves:

1. Transverse Waves: These waves are the waves where the particles in a medium travel perpendicular to the direction of the wave. These waves do not require a medium to travel and can travel in vacuum also. For Example: Light waves.

2. Longitudinal waves: These waves are the waves where the particles of the medium travel parallel to the direction of the wave and these waves require a medium to travel and hence, cannot travel in vacuum. For Example: Sound waves.

From the given options, the correct answer is  the motion of the medium is parallel to a longitudinal wave and perpendicular to a transverse wave.

Ket [755]

Answer:

Perfectly inelastic collision

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

1. Elastic collision : When the momentum of the system and the kinetic energy of the system is conserved, the collision is said to be elastic. For example, the collision of two atoms or molecules are considered to be elastic collision.

2. Inelastic collision: When the momentum  the system is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved, the collision is said to be inelastic. For example, collision of a ball with the mud.

For a perfectly elastic collision, the two bodies stick together after collision.

Here, the meteorite collide with the Mars and buried inside it, the collision is said to be perfectly inelastic. here the kinetic energy of a body lost completely during the collision.

Which of the following statements about the nuclear strong force is true?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: 2, the nuclear strong force drops to practically nothing at large distances.

Explanation: The protons and neutrons in the nucleus share subatomic particles called pions. This exchange is what keeps the protons and neutrons stuck together in the nucleus. Despite the strong force being the strongest force, it has a very small range. This is because pions have very short lifespans. So, the strong force would have literally no effect at large distances.

Hope that helped! :)
