Answer:

Transverse waves are always characterized by particle motion being perpendicular to wave motion. A longitudinal wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves.

Explanation:

The movement of the medium is different. In the longitudinal wave, the medium moves left to right, while in thee transverse wave, the medium moves vertically up and down. Longitudinal waves have a compression and rarefaction, while the transverse wave has a crest and a trough. Longitudinal waves have a pressure variation, transverse waves don't have pressure variation. Longitudinal waves can be propagated in solids, liquids and gases, transverse waves can only be propagated in solids and on the surfaces of liquids. Longitudinal waves have a change in density throughout the medium, transverse waves don't.

If I want to calculate the normal force of an object on two legs but the weight of the object is not uniform throughout, how do

RoseWind [281]

Use the right equation. To calculate the normal force of an object at an angle, you need to use the formula: N = m * g * cos (x) For this equation, N refers to the normal force, m refers to the object's mass, g refers to the acceleration of gravity, and x refers to the angle of incline.

A 15 m ladder with a mass of 51 kg is leaning against a frictionless wall, which makes an angle of 60 degrees with the horizonta

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, .

Mass of ladder is 51kg

Then, it weight is

WL = mg = 51 × 9.81 = 500.31N

This weight will act at the midpoint of the ladder

Length of ladder is 15m

The ladder makes an angle 55°C with the horizontal

An object whose mass is 81kg is at 4m from the bottom of the ladder

Then, weight of object

Wo = mg = 81 × 9.81 = 794.61 N

Using newton second law

Check attachment

Ng is normal force on the ground

Ff is the horizontal frictional force

Nw Is the normal force on the wall

ΣFy = 0

Ng = Wo + WL

Ng = 794.61 + 500.31

Ng = 1294.92 N

Also

ΣFx = 0

Ff — Nw = 0

Then,

Ff = Nw

Now taking moment about point A.

Check attachment

using the principle of equilibrium

Sum of clockwise moment equals to sum of anti-clockwise moment

Also note that the Normal force on the wall is not perpendicular to the ladder, so we will resolve that and also the weights of ladder and weight of object

Clockwise = Anticlockwise

Wo•Cos60 × 4 + WL•Cos60 × 7.5 = Nw•Sin60 × 15

794.61Cos60 × 4 + 500.31Cos60 × 7.5 = Nw × Sin60 × 15

1589.22 + 1876.163 = 12.99•Nw

3465.383 = 12.99•Nw

Nw = 3465.383 / 12.99

Nw = 266.77 N

Since, Nw = Ff

Then, Ff = 266.77N

the horizontal force exerted by the ground on the ladder is 266.77 N

A slab of glass 8.0 cm thick is placed upon a printed page. If the refractive index of the glass is 1.5, how far from the surfac

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

5.3 cm

Explanation:

This question is an illustration of real and apparent distance.

From the question, we have the following given parameters

Real Distance, R = 8.0cm

Refractive Index, μ = 1.5

Required

Determine the apparent distance (A)

The relationship between R, A and μ is:

μ = R/A

i.e.

Refractive Index = Real Distance ÷ Apparent Distance

Substitute values in the above formula

1.5 = 8/A

Multiply both sides by A

1.5 * A = A * 8/A

1.5A = 8

Divide both side by 1.5

1.5A/1.5 = 8/1.5

A = 8/1.5

A = 5.3cm

Hence, the letters would appear at a distance of 5.3cm

How do quantum numbers relate to electrons? please explain?

alukav5142 [94]

Quantum numbers allow us to both simplify and dig deeper into electron configurations. Electron configurations allow us to identify energy level, subshell, and the number of electrons in those locations. If you choose to go a bit further, you can also add in x,y, or z subscripts to describe the exact orbital of those subshells (for example 2px). Simply put, electron configurations are more focused on location of electrons then anything else.

Quantum numbers allow us to dig deeper into the electron configurations by allowing us to focus on electrons' quantum nature. This includes such properties as principle energy (size) (n), magnitude of angular momentum (shape) (l), orientation in space (m), and the spinning nature of the electron. In terms of connecting quantum numbers back to electron configurations, n is related to the energy level, l is related to the subshell, m is related to the orbital, and s is due to Pauli Exclusion Principle.
