The observable universe consists of galaxies and other matter that can, principally, be seen from Earth because the light signals have had time to reach us. Not everything in the sky is the way it is when we see it, because of the distance the light travels to reach us. 

Hope this helps :)

What is the difference between a mechanical wave and an electromagnetic wave
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

1. Electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum whereas mechanical waves do not.

2. The ripples made in a pool of water after a stone is thrown in the middle are an example of mechanical wave. Examples of electromagnetic waves include light and radio signals.

3. Mechanical waves are caused by wave amplitude and not by frequency. Electromagnetic Waves are produced by vibration of the charged particles.

4. While an electromagnetic wave is called just a disturbance, a mechanical wave is considered a periodic disturbance.

n electromagnetic wave in vacuum has an electric field amplitude of 611 V/m. Calculate the amplitude of the corresponding magnet
enot [183]

Answer:

The  corresponding  magnetic field is  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The electric field amplitude is  E_o   =  611\  V/m

   

Generally the  magnetic  field amplitude is  mathematically represented as

              B_o  =  \frac{E_o }{c }

Where c is the speed of light with a constant value

         c = 3.0 *0^{8} \ m/s

So  

        B_o   =  \frac{611 }{3.0*10^{8}}

         B_o   =  2.0 4 *10^{-6} \  Vm^{-2} s

Since 1  T  is  equivalent to  V  m^{-2} \cdot  s

         B_o  =  2.0 4 *10^{-6} \ T
