All the waves are pertubations that propagate (transport) energy.</h2><h2>

Nevertheless, they have some differences:
1. Light waves are<u> electromagnetic waves</u>, while sound and water waves are <u>mechanical waves</u>, this is the first and principal difference.
2. Electromagnetic waves can<u> propagate in vacuum</u> (they do not need a medium or material), but mechanical waves obligatory need a material to propagate
3. Light waves are always <u>transversal waves</u>, this means <u>the oscillatory movement is in a direction that is perpendicular to the propagation</u>; but mechanical waves may be both: <u>longitudinal waves</u> (the oscillation occurs in the same direction as the propagation) or transversal waves.
4. Electromagnetic waves propagates at a <u>constant velocity</u> (Light velocity) while the velocity of mechanical waves will depend on the type of wave and the <u>density</u> of the medium or material.
5. <u>Mechanical waves</u> are characterized by the regular variation of a single magnitude, while <u>electromagnetic waves</u> are characterized by the variation of two magnitudes: the electric field and the magnetic field
6. <u>Water waves</u> are 2-dimensional waves, while the <u>light and the sound</u> are tridimensional spherical waves
7. Light waves <u>transports energy in the form of </u><u>radiation</u>, while mechanical waves t<u>ransport energy with </u><u>material</u>
Wavelength = velocity/frequency
wavelength = v/f
v= 13km/s = change this to m/s = 13000m/s
f= 14Hz
wavelength = 13000m/s÷14Hz =928.7 m
Strange as it may seem, the object would keep moving, in a straight line and at the same speed, until it came near another object. Its momentum and kinetic energy would never change. It might continue like that for a billion years or more.
Have a look at Newton's first law of motion.
Decibel - the decibel is a relative unit of measurement equal to one 10th of a bel
Answer:
Heterogeneous
Explanation:
A chemical substance is composed of one type of atom or molecule. A mixture is composed of different types of atoms or molecules that are not chemically bonded. A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture of two or more chemical substances where the various components can be visually distinguished.
