What does the straight line in a transverse wave represent

Physics
1 answer:
olchik [2.2K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Straight line in a transverse wave represents the mean position of oscillating energy parameter at which the instantaneous amplitude is zero.

Explanation:

  • A transverse wave is one in which the direction of propagation is perpendicular to the direction of oscillating energy vector.
  • The transverse wave having a horizontal straight line represents the line of zero amplitude of oscillation.
  • <em>When in graphical representation the curve intercepts this horizontal line then the amplitude of the oscillation and the phase of the wave becomes whole number multiple of 2π and as we know that the periodic oscillations are represented as a sinusoidal function which leads the amplitude to zero.</em>

Sedaia [141]

Answer: Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Under what circumstances does distance traveled equal magnitude of displacement?

When a body's motion is linear in one direction. Or a body moving in a straight line without turning back.

What is the only case in which magnitude of displacement and distance are exactly the same?

When the body is moving in a straight line with without changing direction or without turning back.

The binding energies of K-shell and L-shell electrons in a certain metal are EK and EL, respectively, If a Kαx ray from this met
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The separation distance between the parallel planes of an atom is hc/2sinθ(EK - EL)

Explanation:

The relationship between energy and wavelength is expressed below:

E = hc/λ

λ = hc/EK - EL

Considering the condition of Bragg's law:

2dsinθ = mλ

For the first order Bragg's law of reflection:

2dsinθ = (1)λ

2dsinθ = hc/EK - EL

d = hc/2sinθ(EK - EL)

Where 'd' is the separation distance between the parallel planes of an atom, 'h' is the Planck's constant, 'c' is the velocity of light, θ is the angle of reflection, 'EK' is the energy of the K shell and 'EL' is the energy of the K shell.

Therefore, the separation distance between the parallel planes of an atom is hc/2sinθ(EK - EL)

I'm assuming you want the first law of thermodynamics.

The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy and cannot be created or destroyed. It can, however, be transferred from one location to another and can be converted into other forms of energy.

in the diagram the solid eventually becomes a gas what will happen to bring the substance from a solid to a gas
Ratling [72]
Since there is no diagram I can see to prove my answer, I must infer that a heat source should be applied to the solid substance and cause the atoms in the solid to spread further apart and become a different state, in which atoms will be able to freely move, gas.
