Longitudinal waves, also calledpressure waves and compressional waves, oscillate parallel to the direction of the motion of the wave. If a wave travels from left to right, the displacement of the medium is also left to right but oscillating in place by compressing and stretching. When a so...
Conly the transverse waves can be polarised and not the longitudinal waves. Dreflection is observed only for transverse waves and not for longitudinal waves.Submit What is a longitudinal wave ? View Solution (A): Solids can support both longitudinal and transverse waves but only mechanical longitud...
What are some examples of longitudinal waves?Longitudinal Waves:Longitudinal waves displace a medium parallel to the direction of propagation. It transmits energy by altermating between compression and rarefactions. Rarefactions are sections of lower density or uncompressed parts....
a sound wave is a longitudinal wave that carries energy through a medium, such as air or water. it consists of compressions (areas of high pressure) and rarefactions (areas of low pressure). the properties of a sound wave, such as frequency and amplitude, determine how we perceive sound....
Is there any limit to the size that aeolian dunes can grow, besides time? One elegant hypothesis is that the size of giant dunes is limited by the averaged mixed layer height (MLH), where a stable resonance condition is found between topographic and capping-layer waves7. This prediction is...
In the case of transverse waves, this length is commonly measured from one wave crest to the next adjacent wave crest, or from one wave trough to the next adjacent wave trough. However, because longitudinal waves do not have crests or troughs, their wavelengths must be measured in a differe...
One common misunderstanding is that tiger crane flies are sometimes called “mosquito hawks” and are believed to kill and eat mosquitoes. However, this is not true. Crane flies, including tiger crane flies, are not predators of mosquitoes. Adult crane flies mostly feed on nectar, while the la...
which is the foundation of the Fourth R program, has also been applied in a variety of other settings across Canada through programs such as Making Waves, Respectful Relationships (R+R), and Healthy Relationships in Rural Youth, although evaluation results for these three programs have not been...
A clear example of this type of study is longitudinal studies, which are designed to detect and analyze trends that arise from historical trends. It is mainly used in ethnographic research and other types of event-focused studies. The great disadvantage of this type of trend analysis is that ...
Beautiful work from my friend Andrew Psarianos ofPicture Perfect Productions. There are so many amazing people in this world, who need their stories told! Can you tell stories about the amazing people changing our world? Meet Irum Fawad, a true power-woman, who is relen...
