<span>So we wan't to know how the molecules of the medium vibrate when a transverse wave propagates trough that medium. A transverse wave is a wave whos oscilations are perpendicular to the direction of it's propagation. So the molecules in a medium will vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. So if the wave is moving in the x-direction, the molecules will vibrate in the y-z plane. The correct answer is A. at right angles to the direction in which the wave propagates. </span>

A sled is slowing down at the bottom of a snowy hill.
Kitty [74]

Answer:

A sled and its rider are moving at a speed of along a horizontal stretch of snow, as Figure 4.24a illustrates. The snow exerts a kinetic frictional force on the runners of the sled, so the sled slows down and eventually comes to a stop. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.050. What is the displacement x of the sled?

Tres personas, A, B, C, jalan una caja con ayuda de cuerdas cuya masa es despreciable. Si la persona A aplica −3 en dirección ho
Yuri [45]

Answer:

El valor de la fuerza que debe ejercer la persona C debe ser de -2 para que la caja esté en equilibrio físico.

Explanation:

Si la caja debe hallarse en equilibrio físico, entonces se debe satisfacer la siguiente ecuación:

F_{A} + F_{B} + F_{C} = 0 (1)

Si sabemos que F_{A} = -3 y F_{B} = 5, entonces el valor de la fuerza que debe ejercer la persona C debe ser:

F_{C} = -F_{A}-F_{B}

F_{C} = -(-3)-5

F_{C} = -2

El valor de la fuerza que debe ejercer la persona C debe ser de -2 para que la caja esté en equilibrio físico.

How do earthquakes affect earths surface?
ivanzaharov [21]
Some of the reasons that can cause can earthquake are volcanic eruptions, the grinding of tectonic plates beneath the earth's crust and violent explosions which can be artificially induced as well. No matter what the reason is, earthquakes affect the environment and earth's surface. Noticeable cracks have formed on the earth's surface after earthquakes. If the tremors are violent, it can result in the destruction of landscapes. The mountains become prone to land sliding. the glacier's become a threat because of fear of avalanches. tsunamis which are earthquakes in the ocean bed can cause heavy flooding which causes water to cross all boundaries and shores and flood entire cities. Earthquakes caused by volcanoes can result in the spewing of so much lava that it may spill everywhere and cool changing the surface of the earth geologically as well as the ash causing aerial pollution.
