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.

A dog has a mass of 20 kg. If the dog is pushed across the ice with a force of 40 N, what is its acceleration?
olasank [31]

Answer:

The acceleration is 2 m/s2.

Explanation:

We calculate the acceleration (a), with the data of mass (m) and force (F), through the formula:

F = m x a  ---> a= F/m

a = 40 N/20 kg                   <em>  1N= 1 kg x m/s2</em>

a= 40 kgx m/s2/ 20 kg

<em>a= 2 m/s2</em>

A solid cylinder is released from the top of an inclined plane of height 0.81 m. From what height, in meters, on the incline sho
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

same 0.81m

Explanation:

in this problem if we assume there no resistance of any sort. and we apply the energy conservation

change in Potential energy = change in kinetic energy

mgh = 0.5mv^2

gh = 0.5v^2

the above relation suggests that the speed at the bottom is only depending on the height it is released from not on the shape, mass or radius.

so at the bottom

put h = 0.81m

9.81 * 0.81 * 2 = v^2

v=3.99 m/s

both CYLINDER and SPHERE will have same velocity at the bottom if released from the same height irrespective of shape and size
