Physics
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]4 years ago
5 0

Similarities: They are waves, they both displace particles, both transfer energy

Differences: Transverse- particles move perpendicularly, waves are perpendicular to direction, and they are 2 dimension .   Longitudinal- particles are displaced same direction as a wave, move left and right, and are one dimension

How to measure:

Transverse- measure 2 adjacent crests or troughs

Longitudinal- measure from one rare faction to another or one compression to another

Example: Transverse- vibrations in string . Longitudinal- sound waves

Two large aluminum plates are separated by a distance of 2.0 cm and are held at a potential difference of 170 V. An electron ent
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field between plates

V / d

= 170 / ( 2 x 10⁻² )

= 8500 N/C

Force on electron in this field

= 8500 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 13600 x 10⁻¹⁹ N

Acceleration

= 13600 x 10⁻¹⁹ / 9.1 x 10⁻³¹

a = 1494.5 x 10¹² m /s²

s = .1 x 10⁻² m

v² = u² + 2as

=  (2.9x 10⁵)²+ 2 x 1494.5 x 10¹² x .1 x 10⁻²

= 8.41 x 10¹⁰ + 299 x 10¹⁰

= (8.41 + 299 ) x 10¹⁰

v = 17.53  x 10⁵ m /s

Explain why the life cycle of a star can be compared to the life style of a human
Vladimir79 [104]
A star is born when clouds of dust and elements are gathered together in a certain space due to gravity, more and more mass and therefore pressure builds. When the pressure becomes enough to overcome the electronic repulsive force between two hydrogen nuclei, they are forced together and massive amounts of energy are given off forming helium atoms. This energy is then used to fuse other nuclei together. This could be compared to the way human life starts, where instead of 2 nuclei joining together to start a life cycle, two gametes, or sex cells are joined together. Also at the start of both a star and persons life, we are weak and we gain strength until we reach the height of our existence, then humans slowly become less efficient at doing what they do until eventually they cannot sustain themselves any further.

Scalars are used to solve projectile motion problems because they allow the analysis of one direction at a time for two-dimensio
Korolek [52]
The statement is false. Vectors are used to solve projectile motion problems because they allow the analysis of one direction at a time for two-dimensional motion. Scalar quantities can be used to analyze linear motion problem, but not projectile motion.
