When longitudinal waves travel through any given medium, they also include compressions and rarefactions. Compression occurs when particles move close together creating regions of high pressure. In contrast, rarefactions occur in low-pressure areas when particles are spread apart from each other. For ...
How do transverse waves move?Transverse Waves:Transverse waves are one of the two most common ways an energy wave can travel. The other way is as a longitudinal wave. Both types of waves occur during earthquakes, with primary waves as longitudinal waves and secondary waves as transverse waves....
Primary waves are a type of longitudinal energy wave, and motion waves felt during an earthquake. They are so named because they are the first waves to arrive, moving 60 percent faster than the S-waves that follow.Answer and Explanation: Primary waves can travel through matter in any state,...
Do Factors That Predict Attrition Change Across Waves in a Longitudinal Study of Older Women?This study examines attrition from a large probability sample of older adults over five waves of data collection, each 6 months apart. Respondents to all five waves and groups differing in the wave or ...
A strength of the current study is the use of a longitudinal, multisource data that enabled us to assess whether organizational approaches to health and wellbeing could predict changes in employee reports of physical health and psychological wellbeing. As well as enhancing causal inference by assess...
Although the role of managers is crucial in shaping firm innovation, it also poses a dilemma. Because innovation is a complicated and long-term process that requires effort and attention, managers may reduce effort in innovation when faced with high take
Professor Jean Yeung from the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, modified and validated a different task, called the choice paradigm, to measure delay of gratification among Singaporean young children and examined the factors behind the development of delayed gratification and its longitudinal ...

Sound is a form of energy that can be heard and travels in waves. When matter vibrates or moves back and forth very quickly, a sound is made. Sound waves can travel through solids, liquids, or gases. Example: When a school bell rings, parts of the bell will ...
Air molecules oscillate in response to sound waves because they are in a constant state of motion and are able to move freely. When a sound wave travels through the air, it causes the air molecules to vibrate back and forth, similar to a wave in the ocean. This vibration creates areas...
