What causes particles in matter to move back and forth at right angles to the directtion in which the wave travels?
Transverse wave, i believe
What are waves in which the particles vibrate back and forth along the path that the wave travels called?
Compression waves (as opposed to transverse waves).
How did coal make the steam engine work?
Coal was used because there was pressure in a tube that moves a piston. The coal was the pressure and and moved a piston that was pushed and as is did this, it pushed the wheel forwards because a stick is attached to the wheel and the momentum carries it through but also opens a different valve because as the wheel is turning, a smaller circle is connected to it attached to another stick like this. But this is not centred so that when is turns it pushes a stick that covers the hole that steam on a second valve doesn't balanse the pressure so it closes that so the steam can pressure. This valve moves back and forth so it shuts one valve and opens the other. ++++ Sighs... Would you like me to untangle that mess so that perhaps more than those 5 counted ones might understand better and even learn the correct names for the parts, not words like "stick"?? ' Coal or any other suitable fuel is burnt to provide the heat to boil water into steam which is then sent, via a control-valve, to the cylinder(s). Within the cylinder is a piston attached to its piston-rod, which emerges from one end of the cylinder, through a special sealing "gland" to keep the steam in, and joins the connecting-rod that transmits the force given by the steam's pressure on the piston, to the crankshaft. ' The joint between piston-rod and connecting-rod is a pivot on a sliding block called the "crosshead", to allow the connecting-rod its swing as the crank rotates while the piston-rod of course can only reciprocate. ' A mechanism driven by the rotating crankshaft operates a valve or valves on the cylinder to allow the steam from the boiler into, and the used, exhaust steam out from, each side of the piston alternately.

Differentiate between a reciprocating mortion of a cylinder piston and a rotary motion?
Rotary means going around, like in a Wankel. Reciprocating means going back and forth. like in a ordinary piston engine.
What is the definition of reciprocating pump?
a pump consisting of a piston that moves back and forth or up and down in a cylinder. The cylinder is equipped with inlet (suction) and outlet( discharge) valves. On the intake stroke, the suction valves are opened, and fluid is drawn into the cylinder. On the discharge stroke, the suction valves close, the discharge valves open, and fluid is forced out of the cylinder.
What is function of piston pin of a piston?
The piston pin joins the piston to the connecting rod. Igniting fuel / air mixture pushes down on the top of the piston, the piston transfers the force to the connecting rod, which in turn pushes against the crankshaft, converting the up and down motion of the piston to the rotary motion of the crankshaft. The piston pin allows back and forth motion of the connecting rod (as it's other end is moving back and forth in a circular motion with the crankshaft.)...if instead of a pin a solid joint was made from the piston to the connecting rod the engine would not be able to run, as the connecting rod would try to rock the piston back and forth (side to side, not up and down) as the rod was moved sideways with the crankshaft.

Where is piston?
The piston is inside an engine, under the valve cover, under cylinder head. it is the piece that transfers the explosive energy into rotating motion along with the connecting rods and the crank shaft. It all however has to go through the whole drive train to get to the wheels: the the transmission,the drive shaft, the differential, and so forth. There is also a piston inside a typical brake caliper, sometimes more than one.
A person pacing back and forth travels 5 west 7m west what is the person final displacement?
The displacement of the person pacing back and forth travels 5 west 7m west is usually East.
Which is the bird which travels 2200 miles back and forth in a year?
humming bird
How do you quiet rod knock?
That knock could be the piston hitting the cylinder head (spun bearing)... if you keep running it you will only cause more damage.The knock is absolutely not the piston hitting the cylinder head. The knock is because the clearance of the rod bearing to the rod journal on the crank has increased to such a point that there is actually a gap. As the crank turns the rod is "slamming" back and forth causing the sound. In fact, a worn rod bearing actually does not push the piston as high in the cylinder. In other words, it would be further down from the head.You can run a heavier oil or maybe add some Lucas to quiet it down, but that's just a band aid. Eventually you will have to rebuild the engine or find yourself on the side of the road.
Why does a steam move back and forth inside a cylinder?
becuase its very small
What do rotational linear oscillating and seceprical motions do?
* Linear-travels in straight lines * Oscillating-back and forth around a point * Reciprocating-back and forth * Rotary-in a circle
How do you put the rear disc brake cylinder back in the caliper after it is been accidentally pushed out on a 1996 Ford Taurus?
If it has come out completely, lubricate the disc brake piston and the piston bore (in the caliper) with clean brake fluid. Make sure the dust boot is clean and is seated in the caliper. Using a turning motion (back & forth), roll the lip of the dust boot over the piston and push the piston into the caliper by hand as far as you can go. You'll need a c-clamp and a block of wood (or an old brake pad) so that you can push the piston all the way into the bore. Go slowly as you are pushing and keep an eye on the piston so that it goes in straight with no resistance. You don't want to damage the sides of the piston. If the piston goes to the bottom with no problem, seat the dust boot lip into the piston groove. You'll have to bleed the brakes once the pads are in and the caliper is reinstalled.
Wave motion in which particles vibrate back and forth in the same direction as the wave travels?
a compressional wave
