Venn diagrams are used for comparing and contrasting topics. The overlapping sections show characteristics that the topics have
natulia [17]

Answer:

B.The slinky descriptions of motion are switched.

Explanation:

First of all, let's define the two types of wave:

- Transverse wave: in a transverse wave, the oscillation of the wave occurs in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. An example of transverse wave are electromagnetic waves.

- Longitudinal wave: in a longitudinal wave, the oscillation of the wave occurs in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave. An example of longitudinal wave are sound waves.

According to these definitions, we notice that the following descriptions of motion must be switched:

- "Like moving a spring up and down" --> this better describes a transverse wave, because the motion up/down is perpendicular to the direction of the spring

- "Like moving a spring back and forth" --> this better describes a longitudinal wave, because the back/forth motion is parallel to the direction of the spring

How does losing an electron result in a positive charge?
AlekseyPX
A proton has a positive charge, an electron has a negative charge. Usually, the amount of electrons and protons is the same, but when an electron is lost usually because of radiation or a chemical reaction the resulting amount of electrons/ protons results in a different charge for the atom in general.
When there are more electrons the result it a negative ion, and when there are more protons it is a positive ion. 
So, to answer your question: if an electron is lost from a neutral atom and there are more protons than electrons you get a positive charge. Have a good day!

An ant climbs to the very end of the second hand on a wall-mounted clock at exactly 9:15:00. The second hand is 13.5 cm long. Wh
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) The second arm measures the minutes. The difference between 9:17:30 and 9:15:00 is 2 minutes 30 seconds. This means the second arm would have revolved 2.5 times.

The circumference = 2πr= 2π(13.5 cm) = 84.823 cm

Distance = 2.5 × 84.823 cm = 212 cm = 2.12 m

b) Displacement of an object is the shortest distance between the initial and final point. Since the second arm revolves 2 and half times, we use only the half times (a semicircle)

Displacement for semicircle = 2r = 2(13.5) = 27 cm

c) Average speed = distance / time

time = 2 minutes 30 seconds = 150 seconds

Average speed = 212 cm / 150 s = 1.41 cm/s

d) Average velocity = displacement / time = 27 cm / 150 s = 0.18 cm/s

e) number of revolutions = 100 m / circumference = 100 m / 0.848 m = 117.92

but 1 revolution = 1 minute

117.92 revolution = 117 minutes 55 seconds = 1 hour 57 minutes 55 seconds

Hence the time would be: 11:12:55

A box that is resting on an inclined plane has what forces acting on it
miskamm [114]

A box residing on an inclined plane has following forces:

In the X- direction

Mg sin (theta) = horizontal  component of weight of the box

f = Frictional force = uN , u = frictional factor, N= mg

In the Y- direction

upward force = Normal reaction of the box = mg

downward force = mg cos(theta) = vertical component of weight of the box

A uniform disk a uniform hoop and a uniform sphere are released at the same time at the top of an inclined ramp. They all roll w
lara [203]

Answer:

D. The sphere the disk and the hoop

Explanation:

This is because the sphere has inertial of

2/5mR²

Disk 1/2mR²

Hope mR²

So these are moment of inertial which is resistance or opposition to rotation so since the sphere has a smaller moment to inertial it will move faster and reach the ground first then the disk then the hoop in that order
