Question

For aluminum the modulus of rigidity is 2.1 × 1010 n/m2 and density is 2.7 × 103 kg/m3 .find the speed of transverse waves in the medium

Answer 1

ile P-waves pass through liquid and gas, S-waves do not. The reason is simple- S wave has a transverse or shearing motion of particles along its path of propagation. Since liquid and gases cannot be sheared, S-waves do not pass through them.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Answer:

6320m/s is the speed of sound in aluminium
