In a compression wave, particles in the medium move
a. perpendicular to the direction of the wave
c. in the same direction as the wave
b. opposite of the direction of the wave
d. in depends upon state of the medium

The slotted link is pinned at o, and as a result of rotation it drives the peg p along the horizontal guide. compute the magnitude of the velocity and acceleration of p along the horizontal guide. compute the magnitudes of the velocity and acceleration of p as a function of θ if θ=(3t) rad, where t is measured in seconds.

Arunner is training for an upcoming marathon by running around a 100-m-diameter circular track at constant speed. let a coordinate system have its origin at the center of the circle with the x-axis pointing east and the y-axis north. the runner starts at (x, y) = (50 m, 0 m) and runs 2.5 times around the track in a clockwise direction.

Abaseball is thrown from the outfield toward the catcher. when the ball reaches its highest point, which statement is true? (a)its velocity is not zero, but its acceleration is zero. (b) its velocity and its acceleration are both zero. (c) its velocity is perpendicular to its acceleration. (d) its acceleration depends on the angle at which the ball was thrown. (e) none of the above statements are true.
