Tanzania [10]2 years ago
4 0

The two correct statement are A and B. Light waves are electromagnetic waves that can travel through a vacuum. Mechanical waves can travel through a vacuum.

<h3>What is an electromagnetic wave?</h3>

EM waves are the electromagnetic radiations are made up of electromagnetic waves created when an electric field collides with a magnetic field.

Electromagnetic waves may alternatively be defined as the combination of oscillating electric and magnetic fields.

Electrically charged particles experiencing acceleration create electromagnetic waves, which can then interact with other charged particles and exert force on them.

The two correct statement is;

1. Light waves are electromagnetic waves that can travel through a vacuum.

2. Mechanical waves can travel through a vacuum.

Hence,two correct statement are A and B.

How can you determine the number of valence electrons in atom without drawing a Bohr model?
grigory [225]
Using your periodic table if you look at it 3-11 are tansition metals so the horizontal Group Number will help if the group number has to digits just remove the one so if it were to be 13, the valence would be 3, if it were 14 the valence would be ,4 if it were 15, the valence would be 5, if it were 16 the valence would be 6, if it were 17 the valence would be 7 if it were group 18 the valence would be 8 so if anymore help needed to explain hit me up

Suppose that the Millennium Falcon orbits the Death Star 20,000m above the Star’s surface. Calculate the circular orbit velocity
Nataly [62]

Answer:

18.4 m/s

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the Death Star and the Millenium Falcon is equal to the centripetal force that keeps the Millenium Falcon in circular orbit:

G\frac{Mm}{(R+h)^2}=m\frac{v^2}{R+h}

where

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

M=5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg is the mass of the planet

m=1.36\cdot 10^6 kg is the mass of the Millennium Falcon

v is the orbital velocity of the Millennium Falcon

R=\frac{160,000 m}{2}=80,000 m is the radius of the Death Star

h=20,000 m is the altitude of the Millennium Falcon above the planet's surface

Solving the equation for v, we find the orbital velocity:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg)}{80,000 m+20,000 m}}=18.4 m/s

the pilot of a new stealth helicopter, which has a mass of 15000 kg and was traveling at 180 m/s, accelerated to 250 m/s in 6 s
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Force = 175000 newtons

Final momentum = 1050000 N*S

Explanation:

We know that force is equal to Mass * acceleration

We also know that the mass of object is 15,000kg.

We know acceleration is (change in velocity)/time

Our initial velocity is 180m/s

our final velocity is 250 m/s

the time it took was 6 seconds

our change in velocity is 250 - 180 = 70

the time it took was 6 seconds

a = 70/6 = 11.67 m/s^2

So we can calculate force, by doing Mass * Acceleration, which is 15,000 * 11.67

Force is 175000 Newton's

Momentum is calculated by Velocity * mass or Force * time

we could do either one

<u>velocity</u><u> </u><u>*</u><u> </u><u>mass </u>way

we are given final velocity is 250 m/s, and that the initial velocity is 180 m/s. We first have to find the change in velocity by subtracting final and initial and get 70, and then we multiply that by the mass, which is 15000 kg.

we multiply them together and get 1050000 Kg*m/s

<u>Force </u><u>*</u><u> </u><u>time </u>way

We just calculated the force above, and got 175050 newton's. from that we just multiply by the time, which is 6 seconds

and we get a result of

1050000 Newton*seconds

*** remember newton*seconds is the same as kg*m/s
