<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.

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

b.only when the current in the first coil changes.

Explanation:

An induced current flow in the second coil only when there is a change in current in the first cool. A steady current will produce no change in flux (due to magnetic effect of a current) by the first coil, and according to Faraday, induced current is only produced when there is a change in flux linkage.

Rogue waves are created along the "Wild Coast" off the southeast coast of ________, where the Agulhas Current flows directly aga
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Africa

Explanation:

A rogue wave refers to the wave that is twice the height of a significant wave occurring in a particular area. The significant wave height is generally referred to as the mean of the largest one-third of waves existing at a particular time period. In simple words, a rogue wave is much larger than any other waves that occur at the proximity of the same time.

This rough wave describes the interaction between the ocean and sea current and swelling of waves. It takes place when the large swells in the ocean, also known as the Antarctic storms, strikes with the rapidly traveling Agulhas current, and the curved water current focuses on the energy of the waves.

Thus, these Rogue waves are often generated along the southeastern coastal regions of Africa, where there occurs the convergence of Antarctic storm waves and Agulhas Current.

Citrus2011 [14]
Let F1=Force exerted by the brother (+F1)
F1= Force exerted by the sister (-F2)

Fnet=(+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet= (+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet=F1 - F2
Fnet= (+3N)+(-5N)
Fnet= -2N

-F

Calculate the molecular weight of Aluminium hydroxide​
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Al(OH)3 = 26.98 + [(16×3) + (1.01×3)] = 26.98 + 51.03 = 78.01 and the unit will be g/mol

<h3><em>Al(OH)3 = 78.01 g/mol</em></h3>
