Mechanical Waves are waves which propagate through a material medium (solid, liquid, or gas) at a wave speed which depends on the elastic and inertial properties of that medium. There are two basic types of wave motion for mechanical waves: longitudinal waves and transverse waves. The animations below demonstrate both types of wave and illustrate the difference between the motion of the wave and the motion of the particles in the medium through which the wave is travelling.
If the temperature of the air is said to be at absolute zero, one might conclude that a. the molecules contain a minimum amount of energy. b. the motion of the molecules is at a maximum. c. the molecules are occupying a large volume. the molecules contain a minimum amount of energy.
Temperature is the measure of how hot or cold the air is. It is commonly measured in Celsius or Fahrenheit. Temperature is a very important factor in determining the weather, because it influences other elements of the weather.umidity is the level of water in the air, the more water vapour in the air the higher the humidity. If the humidity level exceeds the amount of water air can hold condensation occurs forming dew if it's warm or frost if it's cold.
