Which use of sound waves depends on the fact that sound waves are reflected?
ultrasound
Do waves transfer into medium?
yes! as a matter of fact they do!
Do infrared rays follow the law of reflection?
Yes. All electromagnetic waves do. In fact, all sound waves do too.
Are infrared waves dangerous?
Usually no. In fact, there is even research being done on infrared waves to see if they can improve healing.
Do radars have long or short waves?
Radar dectectors have very long waves. In fact they are longer than light waves which must travel all the way here from the sun.
What are waves caused by (transverse waves and so on)?
P-waves and S-waves. P waves are known as Primary waves as they have a high velocity and so are recorded at seismometer stations before Secondary or S-waves. P waves may also be known as pressure waves as they are in fact compression or longitudinal waves. S-waves may also be known as shear waves as they are transverse waves.
What are the three types of waves caused by an earthquake?
P-waves and S-waves. P waves are known as Primary waves as they have a high velocity and so are recorded at seismometer stations before Secondary or S-waves. P waves may also be known as pressure waves as they are in fact compression or longitudinal waves. S-waves may also be known as shear waves as they are transverse waves.
Are surface waves the fastest seismic waves?
No, they are in fact the slowest! The fastest seismic waves are P-waves.
Which use of sound waves depends on the fact that sound waves are reflected?
ultrasound
What are the advantages of injection compression molding?
Not high in fact very low
Are there other waves besides electromagnetic and mechanical?
Quantifying the number of types of waves in fact reduces to the problem of quantifying the number of forces. In fact, mechanical waves are a subset of electromagnetic waves, so there are in fact three other types of waves on top of electromagnetic, for the three other fundamental forces: strong nuclear, weak nuclear, gravitational. Mechanical movement can be caused by any of the four fundamental forces. *Short answer: no. By the way, mechanical waves require a medium, where EM waves do not. They are the only, two, separate types of waves.
Why would number 2 and 3 plugs not be firing if you have good compression good fuel pressure new plugs wires cap and rotor and valves are not cracked or loose on a 1994 350 in a Chevy suburban?
You wouldn't have good compression if the valves were damaged or not seating. If they are not firing as in no spark at all, and the fact that these cylinders are on opposite sides of the engine I would say it has to be the cap. Inspect the inside and the outside of the cap very thoroughtly looking for any blackish lines to confirm this or take it back to the parts store and tell them it is defective is my reccomendation.
Do waves transfer into medium?
yes! as a matter of fact they do!
Is it safe for diabetics to wear compression shorts?
It is safe for diabetics to wear compression shorts. In fact, compression shorts may even help blood flow for a diabetic. It certainly isn't going to hurt them.
What are advantages of compression?
The biggest advantage of compression is the fact that more data and other files can fit on smaller amounts of storage. A disadvantage is the quality lost when compressing.
What are some examples of compressional waves?
Mechanical waves are waves that need a medium to go through. Some examples are ocean waves, seismic waves, and sound waves. Also when a slinky moves back and forth or at right angles it is like a wave.
Do infrared rays follow the law of reflection?
Yes. All electromagnetic waves do. In fact, all sound waves do too.
