Answer:
Transverse waves are always characterized by particle motion being perpendicular to wave motion. A longitudinal wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves.
Explanation:
The movement of the medium is different. In the longitudinal wave, the medium moves left to right, while in thee transverse wave, the medium moves vertically up and down. Longitudinal waves have a compression and rarefaction, while the transverse wave has a crest and a trough. Longitudinal waves have a pressure variation, transverse waves don't have pressure variation. Longitudinal waves can be propagated in solids, liquids and gases, transverse waves can only be propagated in solids and on the surfaces of liquids. Longitudinal waves have a change in density throughout the medium, transverse waves don't.
Answer:
a) 
b) The second runner will win
c) d = 10.54m
Explanation:
For part (a):

For part (b) we will calculate the amount of time that takes both runners to cross the finish line:


Since it takes less time to the second runner to cross the finish line, we can say the she won the race.
For part (c), we know how much time it takes the second runner to win, so we just need the position of the first runner in that moment:
X1 = V1*t2 = 239.46m Since the finish line was 250m away:
d = 250m - 239.46m = 10.54m
The net force on the object as described is; 58.84N
Two forces acting on the object are;
- The <em>applied force and the frictional force.</em>
In essence; the frictional force can be evaluated as;
- Frictional force; = coefficient × Weight of object.
- Frictional force = 0.21 × 20 × 9.8.
- Frictional force = 41.16N
- The Net force = Applied force - frictional force
Net Force = 58.84 N.
