False

Explanation:

Sound waves are longitudinal mechanical waves.

Mechanical waves are waves that requires a medium to propagate them.

  • A transverse wave is a wave that is propagated perpendicularly to its source.
  • An example is electromagnetic radiation.
  • A longitudinal wave is a wave that is directed parallel to their source.
  • Sound wave is a longitudinal wave.
  • It has series of rarefaction and compression along its travel path.
  • Rarefaction are areas of sparse particles.
  • Compression are areas with dense particles.

Why does distillation produce pure water but filtration does not?
ASHA 777 [7]

Filtration is used to separate large particles but this process does not provide pure solutions as some impurities still remain in the solution. On the other hand, distillation helps in the formation of pure water as it removes the impurities from the water or solution.

When body temperature rises during physical activity, which thermoregulatory response is stimulated?
navik [9.2K]

Answer: Heat dissipation mechanism

Explanation: Heat dissipation mechanism is a thermoregulatory response in humans whereby the hypothalamus of the brain initiates certain processes to reduce the high body temperature. Eg, sweating is initiated which helps cool down the body temperature, also superficial arteries are dilated, thereby leading to flushing and decreasing heatloss into the air. And metabolic heat production is also reduced.

A change in the core would have the greatest effect on what?
Misha Larkins [42]
<span>The magnetic field of the Earth serves a useful purpose in deflecting Solar radiation. Without the magnetic field there is much more charged-particle radiation striking the surface. The auroras would occur everywhere instead of at the magnetic poles. Compass needles wouldn't work, and then they would flip direction.. The magnetic field IS DECREASING and could go to zero and reverse sometime in the next few tens-of-thousands of years.</span>
