Answer from: 124319

Best perpendicular to the direction of wave motion

think of you and a friend holding different ends of a rope. you shake your end side to side and the wave travels down to your friend's end. if you pay attention to a given segment of the rope, it moves, but it moves to the right and left while the wave travels forward. in a transverse wave, the constituents of the wave move perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave itself.

a longitudinal wave, on the other hand, is the opposite. the constituents of the wave alternate moving in the same or opposite direction as the wave moves. this one is more like if you and your friend were holding onto a slinky. you give your end a push towards your friend, and you can see the wave move towards the other end.

hope that helps :D

Displacement of particles is back and forth, perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.

Answer from: Quest

Julia would be observing a. static electricity was caused by her sweater rubbing against her shirt and transferring electrons. she didn't touch anything metal, so that would cancel out b.she most likely didn't rub her sweater against her hair either, so that cancels out c.she also didn't scoot across the carpet while trying to take her sweater off, that cancels out d.so that leaves a.a. is correct.

Answer from: Quest

the grams of oxygen gas that can be produced is 20.6 grams of o₂

calculation

2liclo₃ → 2 licl + 3 o₂

step 1: find the moles of liclo₃

moles = mass÷ molar mass

from periodic table the molar mass of liclo₃ =6.9 +35.5 +(16 x3) =90.4 g/mol

moles=38.7 g÷90.4 g/mol=0.4281 moles

step 2: use the mole ratio to calculate the moles of o2

from equation above, liclo₃: o₂ is 2: 3

therefore the moles of o₂=0.4281 moles x3/2 =0.6422 moles

step 3: find mass of o₂

mass= moles x molar mass

from periodic table the molar mass of o₂ = 16 x2= 32 g/mol

mass=0.6422 moles x 32 g/mol = 20.6 grams of o₂

In the nineteenth century, gregor mendel first determined some basic rules of genetics that have been observed throughout all types of life. no observations have disproved these basic rules of genetics. charles darwin developed the idea of biological evolution around the same time, but he was unaware of mendel’s discoveries in genetics. over a century later, darwin’s idea of evolution was modified in order to incorporate mendel’s rules of genetics along with the other evidence that darwin had used. what is most likely the relationship between mendel’s rules of genetics and darwin’s idea of biological evolution? a.)mendel’s genetics states laws that are now part of the theory of biological evolution.b.)biological evolution states laws that are part of mendel’s theory of genetics.c.)mendel’s genetics replaced darwin’s entire concept of biological evolution.d.)biological evolution is a law that explains why all genetics exist.
