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.

A constant net force of 20 N is applied to a 32kg car, causing it to speed up from 4.0 to 9.0 m/s. How long is the force applied

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

8 seconds

Explanation:

From Newton's second law;

Ft = m(v-u)

F = Force applied

t = time taken

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

20 * t = 32 (9 - 4)

20t = 32 * 5

t = 32 * 5/ 20

t = 8 seconds

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The current is reduced to half of its original value.

Explanation:

Assuming we can apply Ohm's Law to the circuit, as the internal resistance and the load resistor are in series, we can find the current I₁ as follows:

$I_{1} = \frac{V}{R_{int} +r_{L} }$

where Rint = r and RL = r
Replacing these values in I₁, we have:

$I_{1} = \frac{V}{R_{int} +r_{L} } = \frac{V}{2*r} (1)$

When the battery ages, if the internal resistance triples, the new current can be found using Ohm's Law again:

$I_{2} = \frac{V}{R_{int} +r_{L} } = \frac{V}{(3*r) +r} = \frac{V}{4*r} (2)$

We can find the relationship between I₂, and I₁, dividing both sides, as follows:

$\frac{I_{2} }{I_{1} } = \frac{V}{4*r} *\frac{2*r}{V} = \frac{1}{2}$

The current when the internal resistance triples, is half of the original value, when the internal resistance was r, equal to the resistance of the load.
