No need to oscillate. It always behaves like whichever one
your experiment is set up to detect.

Is high pitch close together spacing in sound waves?
No The pitch you hear is determined by the frequency of the sound wave (how fast the particles oscillate back and forth). Higher frequency => higher pitch.
How does the particles in solid states move around?
The particles in a solid move around one point.
Can DNA determine behavior traits?
Yes. But neuroscientists and behavioral scientists are both aware that behavior can impact DNA, as well. Since DNA codes for neurotransmitter receptors, metabolic enzymes, regulatory factors, and so forth, they can affect the way in which neurons function, connect, and communicate with one another, which, in turn, affects behavior.
What is a life cycle in which organisms switch back and forth between diploid and haploid stages?
no
What happens to the particle in a spring when a longitudinal wave passes along it?
That would depend on many factors. Length, thickness, density, resonance....too many factors to take a stab at an answer.
How do you use oscillate in a sentence?
The word "oscillate" in everyday speech means to go back and forth, either physically or mentally. An example of a sentence using the word "oscillate" is "My new job is great, but I have to oscillate between New York and Los Angeles at least once a week. "
What is to swing back and forth rhythmically?
Oscillate?
The particle in move back and forth in place?
solid
What is a word for quick back and forth movements?
In noun form, this is referred to as oscillation. The verb form is to oscillate.
How does a wave travel through a medium?
When a particle vibrates (moves back and forth), it can pass its energy to the particle next to it.
To move back and forth rapidly?
This can either be a wave or pendulum in which a motion of energy or a body repeats a constant motion usually up and down/side to side.
Give an example in which the distance traversed by a particle is larger than the magnitude of its displacement in the same time?
This may happen when the particle moves back and forth.
The type of energy transferred by a wave in a medium is energy?
kinetic
Is high pitch close together spacing in sound waves?
No The pitch you hear is determined by the frequency of the sound wave (how fast the particles oscillate back and forth). Higher frequency => higher pitch.
What does oscillate mean?
Oscillations are reoccurring and regular fluctuations between particular states within a system. These states could be discrete, such as a car's turn signal blinking on and off; continuous, such as a wave; damped, such as the gradual decay of the amplitude of a vibrating guitar string; or driven, such as the forced motion of someone on a swing. The states involved in an oscillation don't have to just be mechanical in nature. For example, the stock market oscillates between a bull and a bear market, or your favorite style of music may oscillate between jazz and blues. Even driving to and from work everyday along the same route at the same time is an oscillation. The key things to remember are that oscillations require a "back and forth" motion, and that this motion must happen again and again and again. Thus, bouncing a basketball off the ground and then catching it isn't an oscillation, because the "back and forth" motion only happens once. Additionally, the Earth's orbit around the Sun isn't an oscillation, because, while it does indeed happen over and over again, the motion isn't "back and forth."
What does having behavior like a boat mean?
It means you go back and forth or up and down. your behavior is all over the place
How do the particles move in the ground when p waves pass through it?
P waves are longitudinal mechanical waves which are formed from alternating compressions and rarefactions. In a longitudinal wave the particle displacement is parallel to the direction of wave propagation.The particles do not move with the wave; they simply oscillate back and forth about their individual equilibrium positions. Thus particles in the ground move or vibrate along or parallel to the traveling direction of the P wave when it passes through them..
