What is it called when a DNA copies itself?
DNA replication
What is the motion called when you are playing a bell?
The sound coming from the bell, and the vibration of the bell itself, is described as simple harmonic motion. The graph would be a diminishing sine wave.
How is distance and displacement the same?
The distance and displacement are the same when the displacement is parallel to itself or straight. Displacement is a vector and distance is a real number or scalar. If an object is displaced around a circle the displacement is zero and the distance is 2pi r.
What is a person who studies time called?
A person who studies time travel or time altering is known as a Chronoportationologist. The study of time itself is called Horology. Or more simply put they would be called a Time Travel Studier.
Describe the joint motion of the crayfish cheliped?
The crayfish has a pair of legs called chelipeds, more commonly known as pinchers. The joint motion of these pinchers allow the crayfish capture prey and defend itself.
What wave that vibrates in a direction parallel to the direction of the wave it self is what?
A wave that vibrates in a direction parallel to the direction of the wave itself is called a longitudinal wave. In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium move back and forth in the same direction as the wave is traveling. Sound waves are examples of longitudinal waves.
Do sound waves oscillate parallel or perpendicular to the direction in which the wave travels?
Sound waves oscillate parallel to the direction in which the wave travels. This means that the particles in the medium vibrate back and forth in the same direction as the wave itself, creating areas of compression and rarefaction as the wave propagates.
Do sound waves transfer energy parallel or perpendicular?
Sound waves transfer energy parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. This means that the oscillations of particles in the medium are in the same direction as the wave itself.
Is a line parallel to itself?
Two lines are not parallel if they have exactly one point in common; otherwise they are parallel. So this means a line is parallel to itself!
What are the key characteristics of a parallel wave and how does it differ from other types of waves?
A parallel wave is a type of wave where the particles move in the same direction as the wave itself. This is different from other types of waves, such as transverse waves, where the particles move perpendicular to the direction of the wave. In a parallel wave, the particles move back and forth in a straight line, creating a series of compressions and rarefactions.
What kind of wave is a wave in which the matter in the wave moves in the same direction as the wave?
The type of wave in which the matter in the wave moves in the same direction as the wave itself is called a longitudinal wave. In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium oscillate back and forth parallel to the direction of energy transport. This is in contrast to a transverse wave, where the particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of energy transport. Sound waves are a common example of longitudinal waves.
A wave in which the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of wave motion?
This type of wave is called a longitudinal wave. In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium move back and forth in the same direction as the wave itself, creating compressions and rarefactions. Sound waves are an example of longitudinal waves.
What direction does a compass needle point if a current carrying wire is wrapped around it?
The compass needle aligns itself parallel to the direction of the lines of magnetic force where it happens to be. It does not 'point to a particular pole' for that is beyond the sensibility of a simple bar of metal. I repeat, it aligns itself parallel to the lines of magnetic force ...
Can a single line be parallel to itself?
Normally 2 equidistance lines are needed to designate them as parallel lines. If we say parallel lines, we mean different lines. However, we can say that the line can be parallel to itself if we move it to another dimension. For example, if the line lives in 2D, we can paralleled move it it in the 3D space, and move it again where it was, or vice versa. The beauty is that this line has a unique position on the plane, but in 3D it has infinitely many positions without breaking the condition, the same direction.
What is the east west lines on a map that show distance from the equator?
The lines on a map that show distance from the equator in an east-west direction are called latitude lines. They are also known as parallels and run parallel to the equator. The equator itself is located at 0 degrees latitude.
Why are waves on the surface of the water transverse?
Transverse waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of energy propagation. Think of one wave by itself. Which direction is it propagating? Some direction parallel to the surface of the water. Now think of one particular piece of water that the wave passes through. It's motion goes upwards and downwards, which is perpendicular from the surface of the water, therefore transverse. Waves oscillating parallel to the direction of energy propagation are called longitudinal.
Is a rectangle parelel?
No: lines can be parallel and two (or more) rectangles in 3-d space can be parallel but a rectangle, by itself, cannot be parallel.
