<h2>Answer:D</h2>

Explanation:

Option A:

Surface waves are neither transverse nor longitudinal.They traverse perpendicularly or parallel to the wave's motion along the interface between different media.

Option B:

Transverse waves vibrate perpendicularly to the direction of the propagation of the wave.

Option C:

Sound is a longitudinal wave.Not a transverse wave.

Option D:

Transverse waves don't require a medium for propagation.But they propagate in medium too.

“Transverse waves travel through a medium of the wave's motion” is true about transverse waves.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

A transverse wave is nothing but a wave, which moves vertical to its direction of propagation. Most waves are transverse, and have a crest and trough. Surface waves are not longitudinal, but they are not transverse too. Sound waves are longitudinal, because they move in same direction of propagation.

Only transverse waves travel through a medium of the wave's motion. The propagation of a transverse wave is quite peculiar. The wave, while moving, sets the particles of medium, into the perpendicular direction, and hence, the motion takes place.

Kyle has a mass of 54 kg and is jogging at a velocity of 3 m/s. What is Kyle’s kinetic energy?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:243joules

Explanation:

Mass(m)=54kg

Velocity(v)=3m/s

Kinetic energy =(m x v^2)/2

Kinetic energy =(54 x 3^2)/2

Kinetic energy =(54 x 9)/2

Kinetic energy =486/2

Kinetic energy =243joules

Which one of the following is radical?<br>a.NH4+<br>b.CUSO4<br>c.CH4<br>d.NH3​
klio [65]

Answer:

The unit that is a radical among the options is;

a. NH₄⁺

Explanation:

A radical is an atom, group of atoms molecule or ion that contains an electron that is unpaired. The presence of the unpaired electrons make radical very reactive as such most radicals enter into reactions with other species or with themselves to form new compounds making them not last long.

Radicals are also known as free radicals. Examples of radicals includes; Ammonium ion, NH₄⁺

Nitrate ion NO₃⁻ (From a salt)

Hydroxide ion OH⁻ (From a base)

Sulphate ion SO₄²⁺ (From an acid)

All of which are formed in aqueous solution of acids, salts and bases.
