Answer:

A SURFACE wave moves the medium in the same direction as the wave travels.

Explanation:

Each particles of water in an ocean wave moves in a CIRCLE. A transverse wave moves a medium at an OBTUSE angle to the wave.

Answer:

Longitudinal waves

Explanation:

If you push or pull one end of a slinky, you can produce a longitudinal wave. The coils in the spring move back and forth in the same direction, or parallel, to the wave's motion. A longitudinal wave vibrates the medium in the same direction as the wave travels.

In practice, if a voltmeter was connected across any combination of the terminals, the potential difference would be less than w
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

This difference is kept to a minimum because the resistance in transformers is a few tens of ohms and the resistance of modern voltmeters is of the order of MΩ.

Explanation:

A voltmeter is built by a galvanometer and a resistance in series, this set is connected in parallel to the resistance where the voltage is to be measured, therefore the voltage is divided between the voltmeter and the element to be measured, consequently the measured voltage It is less than the calculated one, since for them the resistance of the voltmeter is assumed infinite.

This difference is kept to a minimum because the resistance in transformers is a few tens of ohms and the resistance of modern voltmeters is of the order of MΩ.

As you stand on a floor, the floor exerts an upward force on you. why are you not moved upward by this force? 1. the upward forc
dolphi86 [110]
Newton's third law of motion states that for any action, there is equal and opposite force. For a person standing on a floor, the action force is the weight and thus the floor must exert an opposite and equal reaction force equivalent in magnitude to the weight of the person.

In this regard, statement 3. is correct.

If a young protostar with a disk is rotating and shrinking. how much faster is it rotating after its size has decreased by a fac
maks197457 [2]
In this system we have the conservation of angular momentum: L₁ = L₂
We can write L = m·r²·ω

Therefore, we will have:
m₁ · r₁² · ω₁ = m₂ · r₂² · ω₂

The mass stays constant, therefore it cancels out, and we can solve for ω<span>₂:
</span>ω₂ =  (r₁/ r₂)² · ω<span>₁
     
Since we know that r</span>₁ = 4r<span>₂, we get:
</span>ω₂ =  (4)² · ω<span>₁
     = 16 </span>· ω<span>₁

Hence, the protostar will be rotating 16 </span><span>times faster.</span>
