Answer:

Answer: Sound waves and some earthquake waves are longitudinal waves. Ocean, light and other earthquake waves are transverse waves.

Explanation:

There are 2 types of waves:

1. Longitudinal waves: These waves are defined as the waves in which the particles of the medium move in the direction of the wave. This requires a medium to travel. For Example: Sound Waves.

2. Transverse wave: These waves are defined as the waves in which the particles of the medium travel perpendicularly to the direction of the wave. This does not require a medium to travel. These can travel in vacuum also. For Example: Light waves.

Hence, Sound waves and some earthquake waves are longitudinal waves. Ocean, light and other earthquake waves are transverse waves

The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Which statement about those waves is true?
Vladimir [108]

Answer: The correct answer for this question is letter (B) The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not. The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Space, between the sun and the earth is a nearly vacuum. So mechanical wave can not spread out in the vacuum.

Hope this helps!

The data below show the distance that a circus net stretches when different masses are placed on it.
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

48 kg

Explanation:

If you observe very closely, 55 would end up being closer to 60 than towards the middle. 48 lines up with the "disturbance of the force" more so than 55.

A ball bounced by a basketball player on the floor bounces back up at her. Newton's First Law Newton's Second Law Newton's Third
taurus [48]

Answer:

Newton's Third Law of Motion

Explanation:

Newton's Third Law of Motion which states that, for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction.

This ultimately implies that, in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects.

In this scenario, a ball bounced by a basketball player on the floor bounces back up at her.

According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, the statement above simply means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects i.e the ball and floor. The size of the force on the ball equals the size of the force on the floor. These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject of Newton's third law of motion.

Hence, the ball bounced by the basketball player on the floor would bounce back in equal magnitude.

An athlete is running a 400m race around a 400m track. On the backstretch the athlete's velocity is 8m/s but he is running into
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

33 N

Explanation:

v = Velocity of fluid = 8+2 = 10 m/s

\rho = Density of fluid = 1.2 kg/m³

C = Coefficient of drag = 1.1

A = Cross sectional area = 0.5 m²

Drag force is given by

F=\frac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.2\times 1.1\times 0.5\times (8+2)^2\\\Rightarrow F=33\ N

The drag force on the athlete is 33 N
