<span>A sound wave is a pressure wave that results from the vibration of the particles o the medium from the source. The motion of the particles in the medium is parallel to the direction of the energy transport. The type of wave formed by a sound wave is the longitudinal wave. </span>A longitudinal wave is characterized by rarefactions. A longitudinal wave is a wave motion wherein the particles in the wave medium are displaced parallel to transport. When motion is detected from the source, the particle next to it vibrates from its rest position and a progressive change in phase vibration is observed at each particle within that wave. The result is that the energy is transported from one region to the other. These combined motions result in the movement of alternating regions of rarefaction in the direction of propagation.

From the top of a cliff, a person uses a slingshot to fire a pebble straight downward, which is the negative direction. The init
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

a) the acceleration is -9.8 m/s^2 (gravity's acceleration), the magnitude is 9.8 m/s^2 and the direction is downwards.

The pebble is not decelerating since the magnitude of it's speed is increasing, even if it is on a negative direction.

b) after 0.5 s the pebble is 5.725 meters down. (or -5.725m from it's initial position.)

Explanation:

a) the acceleration is given only by gravity, it's the only force acting on the pebble, the slingshot only gives the pebble an initial speed.

b) To calculate the position we use the equation

y0 + v0·t + ½·g·t² = yf

replacing:

0 + (-9.0m/s) * 0.5s + 1/2 (-9.8)*0.5² = yf

-5.725 = yf

Inside the wall of a house, an L-shaped section of hot-water pipe consists of three parts: a straight, horizontal piece 28.0 cm
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The magnitude and direction are

7.638×10-4m

80.01°

Explanation:

We know that the coefficient of linear expansion for copper = 16.6×10^-6 m/m-C

ΔT = 40.2 - 18.0 = 28.5 C°

The expansion of horizontal pipe length can be calculated as

= (0.28)(16.6×10^-6)(28.5) = 13247×10^-8

= 0.0001325 m

The expansion of vertical pipe length = (1.28)(16.6×10^-6)(28.5) = 60557×10^-8 = 0.000752229 m

horizontal displacement = 0.1325 mm

= 1.356×10^-4m

vertical displacement = 0.75223mm

=7.5223×10-4m

size of total displacement can be calculated as

√(x²+y²)

Where x and y are vertical and horizontal displacement respectively

= √(0.1325)²+(0.75223)² =

= 0.7638 mm

= 7.638×10-4m

Angle below horizontal = arctan Θ

= 0.75223/0.1325

=5.6772

= arctan (5.6772)

= 80.01°

Therefore, the the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the pipe elbow when the water flow is turned at (7.638×10-4m) 0.7638 mm and 80.01°
