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.

The A string of a violin is a little too tightly stretched. Beats at 4.00 per second are heard when the string is sounded togeth
Basile [38]

Answer:

T=2.5*10^{-3}s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Beat frequency F_b=4

Frequency F=400Hz

Generally the equation for Frequency of the violin is mathematically given by

 f_v=F_b+F

 f_v=4+400Hz

 f_v=404Hz

Therefore the period of the violin string oscillations is

 T=\frac{1}{f_v}

 T=\frac{1}{404}

 T=2.5*10^{-3}s

A uniform electric field exists in the region between two oppositely charged plane parallel plates. a proton is released from re
dedylja [7]

According to Newton's second law

E.e = a * mp  ..... (1)

where

E is the magnitude of the electric field; e = 1.6 * 10^-19 is the elementary charge; mp = 1.67*10^-27 kg is the proton mass; a is the acceleration.

So, the distance

l = at^2/2 .......(2)

The proton accelerated

a = 2l / t^2 ...........(3)

From equations (1) and (3)

E= 32.51 V/m

Electric field

The physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts a force on all other charged particles in the field, either attracting or repelling them, is known as an electric field (also known as an E-field).  It can also refer to a system of charged particles' physical field. Electric charges and time-varying electric currents are the building blocks of electric fields. The electromagnetic field, one of the four fundamental interactions (also known as forces) of nature, manifests itself in both electric and magnetic fields.

A dense metal sphere is dropped from a 10-meter tower, and at the exact same time an identical metal sphere is thrown horizontal
givi [52]

Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

The horizontal motion doesn't affect the vertical motion.  Since the two spheres have the same initial vertical velocity and same initial height, they land at the same time.
