-Compressional waves
Physics

Serhud [2]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Transverse

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves don't depend on the medium they travel through like a mechanical wave does, so they aren't mechanical. They don't oscillate (move back in forth) in the direction they travel either, ruling out compressional and longitudinal waves.

That leaves tranverse waves, the ones we're most used to, since they look very "wavelike," with smooth peaks and valleys. Electromagnic waves behave like these, oscillating in a plane perpendicular to the direction they're traveling in.

Please help me thank you !!!!
Fantom [35]

Answer:

<em>UP</em>

Explanation:

heat flows from higher level to lower level

( higher concentration to lower concentration )

and since temperature in above block is less than the lower block, the heat will flow from lower block to higher block .

( Up )

A golfer tees off and hits a golf ball at a speed of 31 m/s and at an angle of 35 degrees. What is the horizontal velocity compo
Sever21 [200]
The horizontal component of the velocity of the ball is calculated by multiplying the speed by the cosine of the given angle. 
                        x-component of speed = (31 m/s)(cos 35°) 
                                                               = 25.39 m/s
Thus, the horizontal velocity component of the ball is 25.39 m/s.

What is the centripetal force that would be required to keep a 4.0 kg mass moving in a horizontal circle with a radius of 0.80 m
KIM [24]

Answer:

D. 1.8 × 102 newtons radially inward

Explanation:

The magnitude of the centripetal force is given by:

F=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the tangential speed

r is the radius of the circular trajector

In this problem, we have m = 4.0 kg, v = 6.0 m/s and r = 0.80 m, therefore substituting into the equation we get

F=(4.0 kg)\frac{(6.0 m/s)^2}{0.80 m}=180 N

The centripetal force is the force that keeps the object in a circular trajectory, so it is a force that is always directed inward (towards the centre of the circular path) and radially. Therefore, the correct answer is

D. 1.8 × 102 newtons radially inward

Find the resistance of a stereo: current is 7 A voltage is 49 V.
pochemuha

Answer:

R = 7 [amp]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use ohm's law which tells us that the voltage is equal to the product of the current by the resistance. In this way, we have the following equation.

V = I*R

where:

V = voltage = 49 [V] (units of volts)

I = current = 7 [amp] (amperes)

R = resistance [ohms]

Now clearing R.

R =V/I

R = 49/7

R = 7 [amp]
