The wave propagates outward horizontally across the surface of the pond. As you can see from the ripples, the water molecules move up and down, <em>perpendicular to the horizontal movement of the wavefronts</em>.

By definition this is a transverse wave.

A planet is discovered orbiting around a star in the galaxy Andromeda at four times the distance from the star as Earth is from
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Tp/Te = 2

Therefore, the orbital period of the planet is twice that of the earth's orbital period.

Explanation:

The orbital period of a planet around a star can be expressed mathematically as;

T = 2π√(r^3)/(Gm)

Where;

r = radius of orbit

G = gravitational constant

m = mass of the star

Given;

Let R represent radius of earth orbit and r the radius of planet orbit,

Let M represent the mass of sun and m the mass of the star.

r = 4R

m = 16M

For earth;

Te = 2π√(R^3)/(GM)

For planet;

Tp = 2π√(r^3)/(Gm)

Substituting the given values;

Tp = 2π√((4R)^3)/(16GM) = 2π√(64R^3)/(16GM)

Tp = 2π√(4R^3)/(GM)

Tp = 2 × 2π√(R^3)/(GM)

So,

Tp/Te = (2 × 2π√(R^3)/(GM))/( 2π√(R^3)/(GM))

Tp/Te = 2

Therefore, the orbital period of the planet is twice that of the earth's orbital period.

- A ship's total weight is equal to the weight of the water it displaces. If you want to calculate the
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

c. the volume of the part of the ship that lies below the water's surface.

Explanation:

As stated in the problem, Archimedes' Principle tells us that that buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of fluid it displaces.  The volume of water that a ship displaces is the volume it occupies below the surface.

<span>A 67.0 kg crate is being raised by means of a rope. Its upward acceleration is 3.50 m/s2. What is the force exerted by the rope on the crate? 

</span>Newton's Second Law<span> of Motion states, “The force acting on an object is equal to the mass of that object times its acceleration.” We calculate as follows:
