c: a combination of longitudinal and transverse

Explanation:

Surface waves are a combination of longitudinal and transverse waves. These waves causes destruction after an earthquake on the ground surface.

The surface waves are both rayleigh and love waves.
Rayleigh waves and love waves are responsible for the destruction caused by an earthquake.
They both have a unique characteristic of being propagated longitudinally and transversely away from their source.
The spread compressional disturbance and undulating ones at the same time on the earth surface.
These waves are seismic waves.

Answer:

$A=\frac{A_0}{\sqrt 3}$

Explanation:

Initial amplitude= $A_0$

We are given that

Amplitude after 2 s=A= $\frac{1}{3}A_0$

We have to find the amplitude after 1 s.

We know that amplitude at any time t

$A=A_0e^{-\alpha t}$

Using the formula

$\frac{A_0}{3}=A_0e^{-2\alpha}$

$\frac{1}{3}=e^{-2\alpha}$

$3=e^{2\alpha}$

$ln 3=2\alpha$

$\alpha =\frac{ln 3}{2}=ln\sqrt 3$

$e^{\alpha}=\sqrt 3}$

When t=1 s

$A=A_0e^{-\alpha}=\frac{A_0}{\sqrt 3}$

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

wave speed= constant

frequency = increase

wavelength = decrease

Explanation:

Solution:

- The three basic parameters of a wave are speed, frequency and wavelength. These three parameters are related to each other by an expression:

v = f * λ

Where,

- v is the speed of the wave in m/s.

- f frequency of the wave in Hz.

- λ wavelength of the wave in m

- We are asked how would each of these parameter change if we move the hand up and down faster. The hand moves from a crest to trough faster than before and back again. We can see that the time between a cycle has decreased; hence, frequency f increases. Consequently, we can see that wave speed v remains constant - the medium of transfer of wave energy - remains same. Then from our relation above if we hold speed constant and increase f then the wavelength λ would have to decrease.
