Which of the statements about waves is true? a. in longitudinal waves, particles move perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling.b. both transverse and longitudinal waves can travel through water c. electromagnetic waves are a type of longitudinal waves.d. in a transverse wave, particles move parallel to the direction the wave is traveling.

Amass has an acceleration of 10- 2t. what is its velocity and displacement if it started at x- 4m and the initial velocity was 8m/s? at what time does it have 0 velocity? graph all graphs.

Two horizontal plates with infinite length and width are separated by a distance h in the z direction. the bottom plate is moving at a velocity u. the incompressible fluid trapped between the plates is moving in the positive x-direction with the bottom plate. align gravity with positive z. assume that the flow is fully-developed and laminar. if the systems operates at steady state and the pressure gradient in x-direction can be ignored, do the following: 1. sketch your system 2. identify the coordinate system to be used. 3. show your coordinates and origin point on the sketch. list all your assumptions. 5. apply the continuity equation to your system. nts of navier stokes equations of choice to your system 7. solve the resulting differential equation to obtain the velocity profile within the system make sure to list your boundary conditions. check units of velocity 8. describe the velocity profile you obtain using engineering terminology. sketch that on the same sketch you provided in (1). 9. obtain the equation that describes the volumetric flow rate in the system. check the units.
