Particle motion in surface waves is __________ motion.

Physics

Alexxandr [17]3 years ago

The particle motion in surface waves is <em><u>a combination of longitudinal and transverse</u></em> motion.

Further Explanation:

According to the vibration of the particle, the waves are classified into two categories:

  • Transverse Waves
  • Longitudinal waves

Transverse Waves:

The transverse waves are the waves in which the motion of the wave particle is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the waves.

Example: The electromagnetic waves, vibrations produced in a guitar string etc.

Longitudinal waves:

The longitudinal waves are the waves in which the motion of the wave particle is along the direction of propagation of the wave.

Example: Sound waves, seismic waves etc.

The waves produces on the surface are considered to be the combination of the transverse as well as the longitudinal waves because during its motion on the surface, the wave particles vibrate perpendicular to the surface as well as along the direction of propagation of the wave.

Thus, the particle motion in surface waves is <u><em>a combination of longitudinal and transverse</em></u> motion.

<h3>Answer;</h3>

<em>B.)neither longitudinal nor transverse</em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Longitudinal waves</u></em> are waves in which the vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of the wave motion.
  • <em><u>Transverse waves</u></em> on the other hand are those waves in which the vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of the wave motion.
  • In <em><u>surface waves particles in the medium of transmission move in a circular motion.</u></em> Therefore, they are neither transverse waves nor longitudinal waves.

wel

Answer:

0.687 m/s

Explanation:

Initial energy = final energy

1/2 mu² = mgh + 1/2 mv²

1/2 u² = gh + 1/2 v²

Given u = 2.00 m/s, g = 9.8 m/s², and h = 0.180 m:

1/2 (2.00 m/s)² = (9.8 m/s²) (0.180 m) + 1/2 v²

v = 0.687 m/s

Answer:

Therefore the rate of corrosion 37.4 mpy and 0.952 mm/yr.

Explanation:

The corrosion rate is the rate of material remove.The formula for calculating CPR or corrosion penetration rate is

CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}

K= constant depends on the system of units used.

W= weight =485 g

D= density =7.9 g/cm³

A = exposed specimen area =100 in² =6.452 cm²

K=534 to give CPR in mpy

K=87.6  to give CPR in mm/yr

mpy

CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}

        =\frac{534\times( 485g)\times( 10^3mg/g)}{(7.9g/cm^3) \times (100in^2)\times (24h/day)\times (365day/yr)\times 1yr}

        =37.4mpy

mm/yr

CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}

        =\frac{87.6\times (485g)\times (10^3 mg/g)}{(7.9g/cm^3)\times (100in^2)\times(2.54cm/in)^2\times (24h/day)\times (365day/yr)\times 1yr}

       =0.952 mm/yr

Therefore the rate of corrosion 37.4 mpy and 0.952 mm/yr.
