How are longitudinal and transverse waves different?

Physics
1 answer:
Natalija [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A longitudinal wave is a wave where the movement of the medium is in the same direction as the wave. On the other hand, a transverse wave is a wave where the movement of the medium is at a right angle to the wave direction.

Which of the following statements is FALSE?
kobusy [5.1K]
The false statement would be :
C. constructive interference occurs when the crest of one wave overlaps the trough of another and their individual effects are reduced or cancelled out.

Constructive interference should be when the crest of one wave overlaps another and their individual effects are add up, becoming a single wave of increased amplitude<span />

10. How do you use a triple-beam balance? Fill in the blanks.
wolverine [178]

Answer:

1st – Place the film canister on the <u>scale</u>.

2nd – Slide the large <u>weight </u>to the right until the arm drops below the line and then move it back one notch.

3rd – Repeat this process with the <u>top</u> weight. When the arm moves below the line, back it up one groove.

4th – Slide the <u>small </u>weight on the front beam until the <u>lines</u> match up.

5th – Add the amounts on each beam to find the total <u>mass </u>to the nearest tenth of a gram.

Explanation:

The triple beam balance is an instrument that is used in measuring the mass of substances to a very high degree of precision. The reading error is given by ±0.05 grams. The triple beam balance as the name implies has three beams that measure substances of different mass levels.

The beams are categorized as small, medium, and large. There is a balance on which the substance to be weighed is placed directly upon. To use this measuring device, the procedures mentioned above are followed.

A beam of light has a wavelength of 4.5 x10^-7 meter in a vacuum. the frequency of this light is
valkas [14]
The basic relationship between frequency and wavelength for light (which is an electromagnetic wave) is
c= f \lambda
where c is the speed of light, f the frequency and \lambda the wavelength of the wave. 
Using \lambda=4.5 \cdot 10^{-7} m and c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s, we can find the value of the frequency:
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{4.5 \cdot 10^{-7} m}=6.7 \cdot 10^{14} Hz

A car has a force of 2000N and a mass of 1000kg. What is the acceleration
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

2m/s/s

Explanation:

The formula goes- F=MA

F-Force M-Mass & A-Acceleration

We need to rearrange this formula to find the acceleration-

A=F/M

All we need to do now is substitute the values in

A=2000N/1000kg

A=2m/s^2

In the given option the last option (2m/s/s) would be the ans, as it's the same as 2m/s^2

So ya, I guess that's all
