What else can I help you with?
Can longitudinal wave be polarised?
No, the longitudinal wave can't be polarised. Because polarisation means lack of symmetry. But longitudinal waves are symmetrical from all the sides of vision. This is because their plane of propagation and vibration is same. this wave loks same from all the sides.
Why do sound waves travel in all directions?
Sound waves, which are mechanical energy, travel in all directions because of diffraction. Diffraction can be thought of as the "bending" of sound waves. To find a more detailed answer to this question, go to the related link listed below. It answers the question perfectly.
How do Megaphones work?
Megaphones work by capturing sound waves from a person's voice and then amplifying and directing those sound waves in a specific direction. The shape of the megaphone helps to focus the sound waves and make them louder and clearer for listeners.
What happens when both sides pull with equal force?
When both sides are pulling with equal force, the object is either moving at a constant speed or it is stationary (not moving) :)
What is the source of energy in ocean waves?
The ultimate source for the earth is sunlight. Due to the sunlight the water in the ocean surface get heat the water in the surface layers which makes the lighter and moves as hot waves towards the cold regions and cold water from the bottom or sides move up. Convection movements takes place and thus ocean waves are formed. Thus solar energy changes to mechanical energy in precise kinetic energy. Hope this will clarify the doubt
Is a sea arch deposition or erosion?
A sea arch is formed by erosion, not deposition. It is created by the continuous action of waves eroding the rock from both sides of a headland, eventually forming an arch.
How peninsula are formed?
peninsulas are formed when waves start hitting a section of rock on the coastline that is not as easilly eroded as the rock around it. Over time it starts to stick out as a headland and if that process continues for enough years, the waves hitting the headland will start to curve around the sides and begin eroding the softer rock behind.
What is a piece of land water on three sides called?
A headland
If you are standing on a headland were would the water be?
if you are on a headland where is the water
When caves on opposite sides of a headland unite what is the result?
Sea arch
What is A narrow stretch of land surrounded on three sides by water.?
Headland or peninsular.
Is a sea arch formed by erosion or by deposition?
A sea arch is formed primarily by erosion. As waves erode the coastline, they create a hole or cave in a headland. Over time, this continual erosion causes the cave to expand from both sides until it forms an arch.
When two sea caves on opposite sides of a headland are eroded and unite what forms?
When two sea caves on opposite sides of a headland unite, they form an arch. Over time, continued erosion can cause the arch to collapse, leaving behind a stack. Subsequent erosion can erode the stack to form a sea stack.
A piece of land that juts out into the sea?
A piece of land that juts out into the sea is called a peninsula. Peninsulas are surrounded by water on three sides and are connected to the mainland by a narrow strip of land. Examples include the Florida peninsula in the United States and the Iberian peninsula in Europe.
Are the adjoining sides of a square parallel?
The adjoining sides are not parallel, they are perpendicular; forming right angles.
What part of the shore sticks out into the ocean?
I think a peninsula is when the entire landmass sticks into the ocean on 3 sides, and a headland is when a smaller portion of shore sticks out into the ocean.
Landforms created by wave erosion are?
Headland,Sea Cave, Sea Arch, Sea stack,and wave-cut cliff. EXAMPLE WITH SEA ARCH AND SEA STACK: A sea arch is formed when two caves on opposite sides of a headland join. The sea arch collapses when the waves & weathered sediment (rock particles),hit it continuously in which a sea stack is formed. the sea arch is then .eroded and deposited in a new place.
