How the different types of waves are form and how the waves travel

Physics

Hitman42 [59]2 years ago
4 0
There are 2 types of waves mechanical and electromagnetic, mechanical waves need a medium to travel energy, while an electromagnetic wave doesn’t not require a medium. Electromagnetic waves travel through the vacuum(space). Electromagnetic waves include : radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, Ultraviolet light ( UV light), x-rays, and gamma rays, all of those are transverse waves. Mechanical waves are separated into 2 waves longitudinal and transverse. Transverse waves travel up and down while longitudinal waves travel back-and-forth

Elephants can communicate over distances as far as 6 km by using very low-frequency sound waves. What is the wavelength of a 10
harkovskaia [24]

The characteristics of the sound waves allow to find the result for the wavelength is:

         λ = 34.29 m

The sound wave is a longitudinal traveling wave, where the speed of the wave depends on the air temperature.

         v = v_o \sqrt{1 + \frac{T}{273} }  

where v₀ is the speed of sound for T = 0ºc v₀ = 331 m / s.

indicate that the temperature is T = 20ºC, let's find the speed of the traveling wave.

        v = 331 \sqrt{1 + \frac{20}{273} }  

        v = 342.9 m / s

The speed of sound is related to wavelength and frequency.

       v = λ f

        λ = \frac{v}{f}

Let's calculate

        \lambda = \frac{342.29}{10}  

        λ  = 34.29 m

In conclusion using the characteristics of sound waves we can find the result for the wavelength is:

          λ = 34.29 m

A cruise ship is having troubles with buoyancy. What is a reasonable solution? A. Increase the weight of the ship above water B.
Setler [38]

If a cruise ship is having troubles with buoyancy, then spread the weight of the ship over a greater volume.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

Buoyancy is the upward thrusting phenomenon of water acting on any object immersed partially or fully in water body. Hence, it creates the buoyant forces that is inversely proportionate to the immersing body's density. If the immersing body's density is higher than the density of the immersing medium then the body will get completely immersed in the water.

Similarly, in case of less, the buoyant forces act on the body will prevent it from complete immersion and allow it to float on water. Mostly cruise ships and other navy vessels use this phenomenon to keep on floating on surface of water.

In the present condition, the solution for buoyancy problem faced by a cruise ship can be solved by decreasing the density of the ship. And the ship's density can be decreased by increasing the ship's volume or by spreading the ship's weight over a greater volume.

Which is the result of mitosis and cytokinesis?
Leno4ka [110]
During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm of the cell is divided in half, and the cell membrane grows to enclose each cell, forming two separate cells as a result. The end result of mitosis and cytokinesis is two genetically identical cells where only one cell existed before.
