Answer:

The waves are longitudinal.

Explanation:

There are two types of waves:

Longitudinal waves : The waves in which the particles of medium vibrates in the same direction a the wave travels. Ex: sound waves  

Transverse waves : The waves in which the particles of medium in the perpendicular direction of the wave propagation. Ex: light waves.

The wave is travelling along the length of the slinky toy. So, the direction of motion of particles is same as the direction of motion of wave.

So, the waves are longitudinal in nature.

Answer:

"Longitudinal wave" is the appropriate answer.

Explanation:

  • Generating waves whenever the form of communication being displaced in a similar direction as well as in the reverse way of the wave's designated points, could be determined as Longitudinal waves.
  • A wave running the length of something like a Slinky stuffed animal, which expands as well as reduces the spacing across spindles, produces a fine image or graphic.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

13.4cm

Explanation:

According to Rayleigh’s criterion the angular resolution to distinguish two objects is given by:

\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{b}

θ = 50.0*10^-7 rad

λ: wavelength of the light = 550nm

b = diameter of the objective

By doing b the subject of the formula and replacing the values of the angle and wavelength you obtain:

b=1.22\frac{\lambda}{\theta}=1.22\frac{550*10^{-9}m}{50.0*10^{-7}rad}=0.134m=13.4cm

hence, the smallest diameter objective lens is 13.4cm

A boat travels north across a river at a velocity of 22 meters/second with respect to the water. The river's velocity is 2.2 met
MArishka [77]
The magnitude of the resultant is

         √ (22² + 2.2²)  =  √ (484 + 4.84)  =  √488.84  =  22.11 m/s .

The direction of the resultant is

         tan⁻¹(22N / 2.2E)  =  tan⁻¹(10)  =  5.71° east of north .
