The vibrations along a transverse wave move in a direction _________.

Physics
1 answer:
GrogVix [38]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: perpendicular to it oscillations.

Explanation: A transverse wave is a wave whose oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of the wave.

By perpendicular, we mean that the wave is oscillating on the vertical axis (y) of a Cartesian plane and the vibration is along the horizontal axis (x) of the plane.

Examples of transverse waves includes wave in a string, water wave and light.

Let us take a wave in a string for example, you tie one end of a string to a fixed point and the other end is free with you holding it.

If you move the rope vertically ( that's up and down) you will notice a kind of wave traveling away from you ( horizontally) to the fixed point.

Since the oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of wave, it is a transverse wave

If it requires 7.0 j of work to stretch a particular spring by 2.1 cm from its equilibrium length, how much more work will be re
SVEN [57.7K]
4.6 j more. To get this take 7 and multiply it by 3.5 to get 24.5 take the x which is what you’re looking for and multiply it by the 2.1 to get 2.1x. Take 24.5 and divide it by 2.1 x and get 11.6. Subtract 11.6 by 7 and get 4.6

Doc Brown has calculated his Delorean can accelerate at a rate of 2.52 m/s/s. How
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

304.89m

Explanation:

Given

acceleration a = 2.52m/s²

final speed v = 39.2m/s

initial speed = 0m/s (car accelerates from rest)

Using the equation of motion below to get the distance of Doc brown from Marty;

v² = u²+2as

substitute the given parameters

39.2² = 0²+2(2.52)s

1536.64 = 0+5.04s

divide both sides by 5.04

1536.64/5.04 = 5.04s/5.04

rearrange the equation

5.04s/5.04 = 1536.64/5.04

s = 304.89m

Hence He and Marty must stand at 304.89m to allow the car to accelerate from rest to a speed  of 39.2 m/s?
