Answer: perpendicular to it oscillations.
Explanation: A transverse wave is a wave whose oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
By perpendicular, we mean that the wave is oscillating on the vertical axis (y) of a Cartesian plane and the vibration is along the horizontal axis (x) of the plane.
Examples of transverse waves includes wave in a string, water wave and light.
Let us take a wave in a string for example, you tie one end of a string to a fixed point and the other end is free with you holding it.
If you move the rope vertically ( that's up and down) you will notice a kind of wave traveling away from you ( horizontally) to the fixed point.
Since the oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of wave, it is a transverse wave
Answer:
The acceleration of man 1 and 2 is 
and 
.
Explanation:
Mass of man 1, m₁ = 80 kg
Mass of man 2, m₂ = 60 kg
One man pulls on the rope with a force of 250 N.
Let a₁ is acceleration of man 1,
F = m₁a₁
Let a₂ is acceleration of man 1,
F = m₂a₂
So, the acceleration of man 1 and 2 is and .
Answer:
b
Explanation:
The space shuttle, in circular orbit around the Earth, collides with a small asteroid which ends up in the shuttle's storage bay.
This form of collision is called inelastic collision. And inelastic collision momentum is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved. Hence the correct option is b. only momentum is conserved.
