Compressional!

Waves traveling through a solid medium can be either transverse waves or longitudinal waves. Yet waves traveling through the bulk of a fluid (such as a liquid or a gas) are always longitudinal waves. Transverse waves require a relatively rigid medium in order to transmit their energy.

Longitudinal ~ Compressional

At a given instant the bottom A of the ladder has an acceleration aA = 4 f t/s2 and velocity vA = 6 f t/s, both acting to the le
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Acceleration=24.9ft^2/s^2

Angular acceleration=1.47rads/s

Explanation:

Note before the ladder is inclined at 30° to the horizontal with a length of 16ft

Hence angular velocity = 6/8=0.75rad/s

acceleration Ab=Aa +(Ab/a)+(Ab/a)t

4+0.75^2*16+a*16

0=0.75^2*16cos30°-a*16sin30°---1

Ab=0+0.75^2sin30°+a*16cos30°----2

Solving equation 1

(0.75^2*16cos30/16sin30)=angular acceleration=a=1.47rad/s

Also from equation 2

Ab=0.75^2*16sin30+1.47*16cos30=24.9ft^2/s^2
