This is because most of the atom cannot move due to being held in place by surronding atoms, but electrons can move around and travel
Jenny is traveling southward. In order to stop, she needs a northward acceleration.
A better way to say it:
Jenny is traveling southward in her bumper car, so the direction of her velocity is south. In order to reduce her velocity to zero, a velocity of equal magnitude but directed north must be added to it. Then the change in velocity is positive northward, and the change in velocity per unit time is acceleration.
Explanation:
There are two components of a longitudinal sound wave which are compression and rarefaction. Similarly, there are two components of the transverse wave, the crest, and trough.
The crest of a wave is defined as the part that has a maximum value of displacement while the trough is defined as the part which corresponds to minimum displacement.
While compression is that space where the particles are close together while the rarefaction is that space where the particles are far apart from each other.
So, the refraction or the rarefied part of a longitudinal sound wave is analogous to a trough of a transverse wave.
Answer:
θ=180°
Explanation:
The problem says that the vector product of A and B is in the +z-direction, and that the vector A is in the -x-direction. Since vector B has no x-component, and is perpendicular to the z-axis (as A and B are both perpendicular to their vector product), vector B has to be in the y-axis.
Using the right hand rule for vector product, we can test the two possible cases:
- If vector B is in the +y-axis, the product AxB should be in the -z-axis. Since it is in the +z-axis, this is not correct.
- If vector B is in the -y-axis, the product AxB should be in the +z-axis. This is the correct option.
Now, the problem says that the angle θ is measured from the +y-direction to the +z-direction. This means that the -y-direction has an angle of 180° (half turn).
