Which of these statements are true of pressure in liquid?

I. Pressure acts equally in all directions II. Pressure decreases with depth III. Pressure at the same level of a liquid is the same IV. Pressure is dependent on the cross-section area of the barometer tube.

What is the height of the liquid column in a barometer tube that would support an atmospheric pressure of 102000Nm*-2 if the density of the liquid is 2600kg/m*3 (g = 10m/s2)

Which of the following types of waves needs a medium for propagation?

In a transverse wave, the distance between two adjacent crests is

A wave has a frequency of 2 Hz and a wavelength of 30cm. The velocity of the wave is

If the wavelength of a wave travelling with a velocity of 360 m/s is 60m. The period of the wave is

Two wave trains will produce a standing wave in a medium if they interfere with

The equation of a transverse wave travelling along a string is y = 15sin0.4π(60t - x). What is the wavelength?

A progressive wave has a wavelength of 50 cm. Calculate the phase difference between two points at a distance 20 cm apart.

The equation of a wave travelling in a horizontal direction is expressed as y = 0.3sin(0.5x - 500t) where y and x are in cm and seconds. Find the maximum displacement of the particles from the equilibrium position.
