An electromagnetic , transverse,  wave is  a wave that goes up and down, such as light that does not need a medium to travel
While compressional, longitudinal wave such as sound require a medium to travel and can be compressed

hope this helps

Why burette calibrated from top to bottom?​
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

In order to measure the amount of solution added in or drained out, the burette must be observed at eye level straight to the bottom of the meniscus. The liquid in the burette should be completely free of bubbles to ensure accurate measurements.

An engineer can increase the magnitude of the magnification of a compound microscope by
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Magnification of Microscope is  

M = M_o \times M_e

Mo= Magnification of objective lens and

Me= magnification of the eyepiece.  

Both magnifications( of objective and eyepiece) are inversely proportional to the focal length.  

Magnification,  

M\ \alpha\ \dfrac{1}{f}

when the focal length is less magnification will be high and when the magnification is the low focal length of the microscope will be more.

Thus. Magnification will increase by decreasing the focal length.

The correct answer is Option B i.e. using shorter focal length

A man is doing push-ups. he has a mass of 68 kg and his center of gravity is located at a horizontal distance of 0.70 m from his
lidiya [134]
Mass m = 68 kg
center of gravity from his palms x = 0.7 m
center of gravity from his feet x ' = 1 m
forces exerted by the floor on his palms and feet are F and F ' respectively.

with respect to palms :---------------------

( F*0 ) - (W * x ) + [ F ' * (x+x') ] = 0

             -mg*0.7 + F ' * 1.7 = 0    where W = weight = mg

F ' * 1.7 = mg * 0.7

          F ' = mg * 0.7 / 1.7

               = 68 *9.8 * ( 0.7 / 1.7 )

               = 274.4 N

with respect to feet :--------------------

( F ' * 0 ) -( W* x ' ) + [F * ( x + x') ] = 0

                -mg*1 + [ F * 1.7 ]= 0

                                 F = mg / 1.7

                                    = 392 N

The distance between earth and mars is 51 G meters. What is the minimum RTT for a link between Earth and Mars if speed of light
beks73 [17]

Answer:

340 seconds = 5.667 minutes

Explanation:

As we know, S = v t or t = S / v (S = 51 x 10^9 m and v = 3 x 10^8 ms^-1)

So, t = 51 x 10^9 / 3 x 10^8 = 17 x 10^1 = 170 s

For a RTT estimation, the time span will be doubled of one way propagation for transmission and receive delay.

The over all round trip time will be = 170 x 2 = 340 seconds = 5.667 minutes
