Answer : A sound wave traveling eastward through air causes the air molecules to vibrate east and west

Explanation :

We know that the sound wave is a longitudinal wave. The particles of medium travels in the direction of propagation of the wave. The space where the particles are closely spaced is called compression and the space where the particles are far apart is called rarefaction. Also, the distance between two consecutive compression and rarefaction is called the wavelength.

If the sound wave is travelling in eastward direction, then the air molecules will move in the direction of propagation of wave. They will vibrate either in east or west direction.  

So, the correct option is (1) " vibrate east and west ".

What causes earthquakes,tsunami, and volcanic eruptions to happen certain places and not others
Dafna11 [192]
These are all caused by tectonic plate movements. Some areas of the globe are more susceptible to these disasters because they are on or near a fault line where the Earth’s tectonic plates rub against one another, slip beside and under each other, or collide. The places near fault lines are more likely to see earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic activity.

Answer:

<em>The penny will hit the ground at 6.39 seconds</em>

Explanation:

<u>Free Fall</u>

The penny is dropped from a height of y=200 m. The equation of the height on a free-fall motion is given by:

\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}

Where g=9.8\ m/s^2, and t is the time.

Solving for t:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}

Using the value y=200:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2*200}{9.8}}

t=6.39 sec

The penny will hit the ground at 6.39 seconds
