A(n) ______ is a substance that cannot be broken down into other substances.

1 answer:

8 0

An element is a substance that cannot be broken into other substances further.An element is composed of one type of atoms all over. Like a molecule can be divided into atoms further. For example, Water is a molecule which is made up of Oxygen (O), Hydrogen (H). Here, Oxygen and Hydrogen are elements and cannot be further broken down into other substances.

Wave is a periodic (1) __________ that moves away from a source which carries (2) __________ with it. Waves can be typified acco

swat32

The correct answers to fill into the blank spaces are;

Wave is a periodic disturbance that moves away from a source which carries energy with it. Waves can be typified according to the direction of motion of the vibrating particles with respect to the direction in which the waves travel and according to medium .

Longitudinal waves vibrate perpendicularly to the direction in which the waves travel. This wave exhibits up and down motion. Longitudinal waves vibrate perpendicular or back and forth to the direction in which the waves travel.

Electromagnetic waves are combination of transverse and longitudinal waves. These move in a circular pattern as the waves pass by.

Mechanical waves need solid, liquid and gas medium to propagate or travel. Transverse, mechanical and surface waves are examples of mechanical waves.

Electromagnetic waves do not need medium to propagate. Radio waves, ultraviolet, infrared, and gamma rays are examples of electromagnetic waves. The nature of waves can be described through its terms, quantities and propagation.

The crust and trough refer to the highest point and lowest point of a wave pattern, respectively. The magnitude of a transverse wave is the maximum displacement of a particle of the medium on either side of its normal position when the wave passes. The frequency of periodic waves is the number of waves that pass a particular point for every one second while the Amplitude is the distance between adjacent crests or troughs.

The period is the time required for one complete wave to pass a particular point. The speed of the wave refers to the distance the wave travels per unit time. It is related to the frequency of the wave and wavelength through the following equation: wave speed= frequency x wavelength.

Ugo [173]

Bladder spinal reflex is the mechanism so you can consciously void urine. There are receptors in the bladder that senses the amount of urine collected. These are responsible for that ‘voiding urge’. The higher the amount of urine collected, the greater the intensity of the signals. Finally, when you get to the bathroom, another set of nerves lets you consciously urinate so you can select which bathroom stall is nice for peeing. Diabetes mellitus can damage nerves in the spinal cord, including those involved in functioning of the bladder. Damage to the nerves in the bladder spinal reflex arc is suspected if the patient suffers from urinary retention – where the patient can consciously void urine but cannot feel if the bladder is full.
