If the vibrations of the particles of the medium conveying a wave are to and fro and parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave, then the wave is called a longitudinal wave.

Transverse wave: If the vibrations of the particles of the medium conveying a wave are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave, the wave is called a transverse

<span>A transverse wave is one for which the direction of oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave whereas, for longitudinalwaves oscillations are in the direction of propagation. Ripples in pond water move about the surface of water and they simultaneously move away from the point-0 too.</span><span>
Longitudinal waves include sound waves(vibrations in pressure, particle of displacement, and particle velocity propagated in an elastic medium) and seismic P-waves (created by earthquakes and explosions). In longitudinal waves, the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of thewave.

You have no options here so I'll just answer. It can cause a rise in heart rate and greatly increases the risk of overheating and even death. If you grab the rabbit too hard, you risk breaking/fracturing a bone or causing other kinds of damage, whether externally or internally, to the rabbit.

Why are weight and mass used synonymously on earth?
Lisa [10]
Weight and mass are used synonymously on earth because the value of g is constant on the earth because the weight of a body is the amount of force exerted by the Earths gravity on an object of finite mass. And, the mass of an object gives the amount of matter in the body and is measured in kilograms.

Provide descriptions and examples of the following forces: friction, gravity and elastic.
arsen [322]

Answer:

Friction:-

The friction force is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing inter molecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an

EG:-

A coaster sliding against a table.

Gravity:-

The force of gravity is the force with which the earth, moon, or other massively large object attracts another object towards itself. By definition, this is the weight of the object. All objects upon earth experience a force of gravity that is directed "downward" towards the center of the earth. The force of gravity on earth is always equal to the weight of the object as found

EG:-

The force that causes a car to coast downhill even when you aren't stepping on the gas.

Elastic:-

Elasticity is the ability of a material to return to its original shape after being stretched or compressed. When an elastic material is stretched or compressed, it exerts elastic force. This force increases the more the material is stretched or compressed.

EG:-

An archer's stretched bow

Balance the following chemical equation:<br> CO2 + VH20 - CH1206+ voz<br> [<br> ~<br> CO₂+
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Explanation:

Start with Carbon and assume we only get 1 sugar molecule from the process.

you have 6 carbons in the sugar on the right, so you need 6 carbons on the left which only come from CO₂

6 CO₂

you have 12 hydrogen atoms in the sugar on the right, so you need 12 hydrogen atoms on the left which only come from H₂O. At 2 hydrogen atoms per water molecule means you need 6 waters.

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → 1 C₆H₁₂O₆

you are supplied with 12 oxygen from the CO₂ and 6 oxygen from the H₂O, but you only need 6 oxygen for the sugar. That means there are 12 oxygen remaining which will become 6 O₂ molecules

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → 1 C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂
