Answer:
1. The sound waves are longitudinal because particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrate parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves.
2. A pulse or a wave is introduced into a slinky when a person holds the first coil and gives it a back-and-forth motion. This creates a disturbance within the medium; this disturbance subsequently travels from coil to coil, transporting energy as it moves.
Explanation:
Answer:
There are no gaps in space between the photons as they travel. If you were to look at a wave then you'd come to a conclusion that indeed that there aren't any gaps unless they are specifically placed.The light from a distance star indeed spreads out and weakens as it travels, but this just reduces the wave strength and does not introduce gaps.
Answer:
Explanation:
A body has acceleration when there is a change in the velocity vector, either in magnitude or direction. In this case we only have a change in magnitude. The average acceleration represents the speed variation that takes place in a given time interval.
