The particles of the medium (slinky in this case) move up and down (choice #2) in a transverse wave scenario.

This is the defining characteristic of transverse waves, like particles on the surface of water while a wave travels on it, or like particles in a slack rope when someone sends a wave through by giving it a jolt.

The other kind of waves is longitudinal, where the particles of the medium move "left-and-right" along the direction of the wave propagation. In the case of the slinky, this would be achieved by giving a tensioned slinky an "inward" jolt. You would see that such a jolt would give rise to a longitudinal wave traveling along the length of the tensioned slinky. Another example of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

A toaster is plugged into a 132 volt household circuit it draws the amps of current If you use a toaster 2 hours a week how much

Ne4ueva [31]

There is a missing data in the text of the problem: the current drawn is 0.5 A (found on internet)

Solution:
The power used by the toaster is the product between the voltage V and the current I:
$P=VI=(132 V)(0.5 A)=66 W=0.066 kW$

The toaster is used for a time of 2 hours: t=2h, therefore the energy used is equal to
$E=Pt =(0.066 kW)(2 h)=0.132 kWh$

The secondary coil of a neon sign transformer provides 7500 V at 0.01 A. The primary coil operates on 120 V. What is the input c

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

0.625 A

Explanation:

Vs = 7500 V, Is = 0.01 A

Vp = 120 V

Let the primary current be Ip.

As the transformer is ideal, so input power is equal to the output power

Vp x Ip = Vs x Is

120 x Ip = 7500 x 0.01

Ip = 0.625 A
