Explanation:
A.) If two in-phase waves arrive simultaneously at a point, their amplitudes add up.
Answer:
Shear stress, force tending to cause deformation of a material by slippage along a plane or planes parallel to the imposed stress. The resultant shear is of great importance in nature, being intimately related to the downslope movement of earth materials and to earthquakes.
A transverse wave is a moving wave in which the current is perpendicular to the direction of the wave or path of propagation. A longitudinal wave are waves in which the displacement of the median is in the direction of the propagation.
Example:
Transverse- pond ripple
Longitudinal- crest and troff
Matter can exist in one of three main states: solid, liquid, or gas. Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around. Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. Hopefully this helps:)
