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.

Imagine you are riding on a yacht in the ocean and traveling at 20 mph. You then hit a golf ball at 100 mph from the deck of the
Whitepunk [10]

Before solving this question, first we have to understand the special theory of relative.

As per classical mechanics, the velocity of light will be different in different frame of reference. The light moves in the ether medium which exists every where in the entire universe.

Let us consider a body which moves with a velocity v. Let light is coming along the direction of the body. As per classical mechanics,the velocity of light with respect to the body will be [ c-v].

Let us consider that light is coming from opposite direction. Hence, the velocity of light with respect to the observer will be c+v.

From above we see that velocity of light is different in both the cases which is wrong.

As per Einstein's special theory of relativity, the velocity of light will be same in every frame of reference i.e c=300000 km/s.

As per the question ,the space craft is moving with a velocity 0.1 c.

We are asked to calculate the velocity of the light with respect to an observer present in Mars.

Considering Einstein's theory of relativity, the velocity of light will be c [300000 km/s] with respect to the person in Mars.

When one person shouts at a football game, the sound intensity level at the center of the field is 58.4 dB. When all the people
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The number of people at game are approximately 22909

Explanation:

Given data

When one person shout \beta _{1}=58.4dB

When n number of person shout together \beta _{n}=102dB

The sound intensity level during one person shout is given by:

\beta _{1}=10log(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{o}} )\\58.4=10log(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{o}} )\\5.84=log(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{o}} )\\\frac{I_{1}}{I_{o}} =10^{5.84}\\I_{1}=10^{5.84}*I_{o}

The sound intensity level during n number of person shout is given by:

\beta _{n}=10log(\frac{I_{n}}{I_{o}} )\\102=10log(\frac{I_{n}}{I_{o}} )\\10.2=log(\frac{I_{n}}{I_{o}} )\\\frac{I_{n}}{I_{o}}=10^{10.2}\\I_{n}=10^{10.2}*I_{o}

Since each person generates same sound intensity and hence total number  of persons can be determined as

 =\frac{I_{n}}{I_{1}}\\ =\frac{10^{10.2}I_{o}}{10^{5.84}I_{o}} \\=22909

Hence

The number of people at game are approximately 22909

In order to decrease the friction an object experiences, you can either change
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Reduce its weight

Explanation:

For an object on a flat surface, the maximum force of friction experienced by the object is given by:

F = \mu W

where

\mu is the coefficient of friction

W is the weight of the object

As we can see from the formula, there are two ways of reducing the  friction:

- Decreasing \mu --> this coefficient depends on the material and on the roughness of the surface, so this can be changed by changing the properties of the surface

- Decreasing W, the weight --> this can be done by reducing the mass of the object
