What else can I help you with?
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.
If a particle moves in circle with constant speed its angular momentum about the center of circle?
The angular momentum is a constant.
The type of energy transferred by a wave in a medium is energy?
kinetic
What is the maximum distance a particle of a medium wave is called?
The maximum distance a particle of a medium wave moves from its rest position is called the amplitude of the wave. It represents the maximum displacement of the particles from equilibrium as the wave passes through the medium.
What happens to the medium as a wave moves through it?
As a wave moves through a medium, the particles within the medium oscillate or vibrate in the direction of the wave propagation. Energy is transferred from one particle to the next, causing a wave pattern to propagate through the medium without the actual particles themselves moving along with the wave.
How does a transverse wave move through a medium?
In a transverse wave, the particles of the medium vibrate perpendicular to the direction of the wave's propagation. Each particle moves up and down (or side to side), passing its energy to neighboring particles, creating a wave-like motion that moves through the medium.
What is the maximum displacement of a particle of the medium on either side of the normal position when a waves passes called?
The maximum displacement of a particle of the medium on either side of the normal position when a wave passes is called the amplitude of the wave. It represents the maximum distance the particle moves away from its rest position during the passage of the wave.
How does a mechanical wave move its medium?
A mechanical wave moves its medium by transferring energy through the vibration or oscillation of particles in the medium. As one particle moves, it collides with neighboring particles, transferring energy and causing them to also move in a wave-like pattern. This transfer of energy continues through the medium, allowing the wave to propagate.
What moves forward in a wave while particles in the wave remain in the same place?
Energy. Each particle of water moves around in a circle. Energy moves forward while water particles remain in the same place.
How does the light move?
Light moves in a straight line at a constant speed of about 186,282 miles per second in a vacuum. When it encounters a medium like air or water, it may change direction and speed, depending on the medium's density. This movement is explained by the wave-particle duality of light, where it behaves as both a wave and a particle.
What is the relationship between the temperature of a particle and the movement of a particle?
the more a particle moves the higher its temerature
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.
