A surface wave is a wave in which particles of the medium undergo a circular motion.
As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.
Explanation:
A wave is a traveling disturbance that carries energy from one location to another. All waves move in straight lines outward and away from the source of a disturbance. Like the radiating circular ripples, the waves of water carry energy away from where a rock was dropped into the pond.
Waves can move as a single pulse or as a continuous series of waves, carrying energy away from its source. A pulse is a single disturbance, wave, or ripple that moves outward from the point of disturbance. A train of waves are many waves emitted over and over again from a single source.
As waves travel through matter, they will temporarily displace the molecules or particles in matter up-and-down or side-to-side. Waves move the energy but they do not carry the matter with them longitudinally as they move through matter. Once the disturbance passes, the medium will return to its original state or position.
Therefore, as the waves move through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.
Answer:
Velocity remains the same at 104 m/s
Explanation:
According to Newton's 1st law of motion, an object subjected to no force or net force equal 0 would maintain its velocity. In our case the crew shuts off the power, spaceship is in space and far from all other objects (so no gravity whatsoever) would have no force acting on it. Therefore its velocity would stay the same at 104 m/s
Answer:
none
Explanation:
Newton's first law says an object in motion will stay in motion at the same speed and direction unless acted upon by some force.
No force is necessary for the object to keep its speed and direction on a frictionless surface.
