What occurs as energy is transferred through a wave?
They move up and down, but do not move forward (NJASK8 Earth Science)
What particles move around the nucleus in constant and random motion?
Electrons are the particles that move around the nucleus in constant and random motion.
Which particles move parallel to wave motion?
The particles of the wave (for compressive waves). Or for transverse waves, yet the particles move parallel to the wave too.
What happens to the motion of particles in a solid and liquid and gas?
In a solid the particles are packed tightly together in a more raged formation . in a liquid the particles move passing each other in a gas the particles move freely in the space they have
Describe the movement of the particles in gases?
gas particles move fastly spread apart
How do particles in a wave move?
They move in a circular motion
The particles in a water wave move?
They move in a circular motion
What move by giving particles a circular motion and are generated by energy that travels outward from epicenter?
primary waves
What occurs as energy is transferred through a wave?
They move up and down, but do not move forward (NJASK8 Earth Science)
Why a body moves in a circular motion?
A body will move in circular motion if there is a force to accelerate it towards the center.
Ocean waves are what kind of wave type?
Ocean waves are mechanical waves. The waves on the surface are surface waves (particles move in a circular motion) while the waves in the depths are longitudinal (particles move parallel to the wave propogation).
How does uniform circular motion related to planetary motion?
The planets' orbits are elliptical, not exact circles. Still, that doesn't alter the answer too much. Two things combine to give the planets their stable orbits: 1) The velocity of the planet, which, at any moment, is " tangential" to its orbit. (That's, roughly, "sideways" in ordinary words.) 2) The gravitational attraction of the Sun, which is always directly towards the Sun. (If you can do the mathematics it becomes clearer.)
what is the difference between longitudinal and surface waves?
Longitudinal wave particles move parallel to the way the wave is moving. Surface wave particles move in a circular motion.
What couses an object to move in a circular motion?
An object will move in a circular fashion if there is a force that pulls it toward the inside.
How do cells appear when convection currents are causing their motion?
move in circular motion.
What particles move around the nucleus in constant and random motion?
Electrons are the particles that move around the nucleus in constant and random motion.
Do particles always move?
Yep, Particles are at constant motion.
