Answer: A crest in a transverse wave corresponds to a Compression in a longitudinal wave.

Explanation:

A transverse wave has crests and troughs. Crest and trough are the points on the wave to which maximum displacement of medium particles in upward and downward direction occurs respectively. The medium particles vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of wave.

A longitudinal wave has compression and rarefaction. The medium particles vibrate parallel to the direction of propagation of wave. A compression is high density region and rarefaction is a low density region.

A crest is the point on the transverse wave to which the medium particle rises maximum. Correspondingly, in a longitudinal wave, the medium particles come closer to each other and form a denser region. This is known as compression.

Determine the thrust produced if 1.5 x 10^3 kg of gas exits the combustion chamber each second, with a speed of 4.00 x 10^3 m/s.

ozzi

Answer:

The thrust is $6\times 10^6\ N$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of gas, $m=1.5\times 10^3\ kg$

The rate at which the gas is expelling, $\dfrac{dv}{dt}=4\times 10^{3}\ m/s$

We need to find the thrust produced by the gas.

We know that force is equal to the rate of change of momentum. So,

$F=\dfrac{p}{t}$

Also, p = mv

$F=\dfrac{mv}{t}$

So,

$F=1.5\times 10^3\times 4\times 10^3\\\\F=6\times 10^6\ N$

So, the thrust is $6\times 10^6\ N$

A mason is shot with a constant speed of 7.5 x 10²m/sinto a region, when an electric field produces acceleration on the mason of

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Distance, d = 0.1 m

It is given that,

Initial velocity of meson,

Finally, the meson is coming to rest v = 0

Acceleration of the meson, (opposite to initial velocity)

Using third equation of motion as :

s is the distance the meson travelled before coming to rest.

So,

s = 0.1 m

The meson will cover the distance of 0.1 m before coming to rest. Hence, this is the required solution.
