Question
Chapter 9, Problem 32R
To determine
The correct option.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 32R
The correct option is C.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Longitudinal waves are waves in which the particles move along the same direction of the wave propagation.
When a longitudinal wave moves through a medium, the direction in which the matter in the medium moves is along the same direction the wave travel. In a transverse wave the matter moves perpendicular the direction of wave propagation.
Waves move in perpendicular direction when they are transverse, longitudinal waves cannot move in all direction and in circles since the particles will only move along the direction of propagation.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the correct option is C.

- No Chatgpt please will upvote harrow_forwardHelicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a helically-shaped bacterium that is usually found in the stomach. It burrows through the gastric mucous lining to establish an infection in the stomach's epithelial cells (see photo). Approximately 90% of the people infected with H. pylori will never experience symptoms. Others may develop peptic ulcers and show symptoms of chronic gastritis. The method of motility of H. pylori is a prokaryotic flagellum attached to the back of the bacterium that rigidly rotates like a propeller on a ship. The flagellum is composed of proteins and is approximately 40.0 nm in diameter and can reach rotation speeds as high as 1.50 x 103 rpm. If the speed of the bacterium is 10.0 μm/s, how far has it moved in the time it takes the flagellum to rotate through an angular displacement of 5.00 * 10² rad?
