The wavelength would increase because the wave would be flattening out and getting longer.

What statement is true about the temperature and desity of air?

As air temperature increases, its density decreases because the air molecules have more energy and move farther apart. Conversely, as air temperature decreases, its density increases because the molecules have less energy and come closer together.


A proton is moving toward a second stationary proton. what happens as the proton get closer?

As the moving proton gets closer to the stationary proton, the electric force between them increases. This causes the moving proton to slow down and eventually come to a stop as the electrostatic force of repulsion between them balances the initial kinetic energy of the moving proton.


How the spacing between coils of a spring changes if the amplitude of compression waves traveling along the spring increases?

If the amplitude of compression waves traveling along the spring increases, the spacing between coils of the spring will decrease. This is because the increased energy from the compression waves causes the coils to compress and come closer together. In essence, the increased amplitude results in a more compacted spring configuration.


What increases as speed increases?

As speed increases, the kinetic energy of an object increases. Additionally, the force required to overcome air resistance and friction also increases with speed. Finally, the likelihood of accidents or collisions also tends to increase as speed increases.


What is total destructive interference?

It is very interesting phenomenon in nature. Actually when two waves traverse in the same medium each wave would go as if the other were absent. This is very very important concept. This means that there is no chance for any wave to push the other wave as they come across. Have you heard about the scattering of wave due to another wave? No it is not possible. But the disturbance produced by one wave at one location could be altered by the disturbance produced by another at the same location. This effect is termed as interference. If both meeting waves have crest or trough at the same time then both get added and so it is termed as CONSTRUCTIVE interference. But if both meet in such a way that crest and trough meet, then DESTRUCTIVE interference is produced. If the amplitude of the two waves are the same, then the resultant amplitude due to destructive interference will be ZERO. Hence total destruction!

What is the parts of waves?

A wave is disturbance or oscillation, that travels through matter (eg mechanical waves) or space (eg electromagnetic waves) accompanied by a transfer of energy. A wave can be transverse or longitudinal, depending on the direction of its oscillation.A single definition for the term WAVE is not straightforward. However waves haveA direction,A velocity,An amplitude,A wavelength.A waveformWaves are best described mathematically. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Parts of a Wave Transverse Wave For a transverse wave, there are five main parts that make up the wave. They are: the equilibrium or rest position, the crest, the trough, the amplitude, and the wavelength. The equilibrium or rest position is the imaginary line that represents where the string (for example) would assume if there was no wave traveling through it. The crest is the point on the wave that has the greatest positive displacement from the equilibrium or rest position. The trough is the point on the wave that has the greatest negative displacement from the equilibrium or rest position. The amplitude of a wave is the distance from the crest, or trough to the rest position. It is the maximum amount of displacement that the wave has. The wavelength of a wave is the length of one complete wave cycle. This means, the length from crest to crest or tough to trough, from the rest position over a crest and trough and back to the rest position, or any two other point that are one complete wave cycle. Longitudinal Wave For a longitudinal wave, there are three main parts that make up a wave. They are: the compression, the rarefaction, and the wavelength. Since the particles of a longitudinal wave are vibrating and moving in line with the wave, there are areas where the coils (of a slinky, for example) are closer together. These areas are called compression's. The areas where the coils are spaced out more are called rarefaction's. The wavelength for a longitudinal wave is very similar to that of a transverse wave. It is still the length of one complete wave cycle, but instead of it being from crest to crest, it is from compression to compression, or rarefaction to rarefaction, or any two other points that are at the same point on the wave cycle.

How do you get your horse to drink from your water trough?

Well we always bring our horses to the water trough and pick the water up to the horses mouth, and most of the time after that they all just come and drink from the trough. Hope that helps =)

What causes drawback before tidal wave?

For every wave there are two components: the crest where the wave is highest and the trough were it is lowest. The drawback before a tsunami occurs when the trough is ahead of the crest. Another way of putting it: the water that is in the tsunami has to come from somewhere. Raising the water in one location means lowering it in another.
