A transverse wave is a wave where the direction of vibration is perpendicular (90 degrees) to the direction of travel (an example would be a wave in the sea), and a longitudinal wave is a wave where the v...

The resistance of a filament lamp increases as the potential difference increases because the filament becomes hot. The movement of electrons (which is what causes the current) makes the atoms inside the ...

They travel at the same speed (speed of light) in vacuum, and they can both be polarised.

methodical approach to answering the question step by step:1) The length of the wire needs to be measured and varied (this is order to get a complete set of results for your experiment )2) Then go through...

For this question we solve it using Charles’ Law. Charles’ law states that the product of volume and temperature gives a constant value. This is illustrated by VT=C. This means that volume and temperature...
