hii! In a total eclipse, the disk of the Sun is fully obscured by the Moon. In partial and annular eclipses, only part of the Sun is obscured. ... Total solar eclipses are rare at any particular location because totality exists only along a narrow path on the Earth's surface traced by the Moon's full shadow or umbra.

The total solar eclipse is the eclipse in which the Sun gets completely covered by the Moon and Solar Corona can be seen whereas in case of partial solar eclipse, the Sun is partially covered by the Moon and Solar Corona can’t be seen whereas, in case of annular solar eclipse, the moon is further away from the Earth than in case of Total solar eclipse.

<span>Corona is visible in case of the Total solar eclipse.</span>

Traveling waves propagate with a fixed speed usually denoted as v (but sometimes c). The waves are called __________ if their wa

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Periodic.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

Generally, the most commonly used electromagnetic wave technology in telecommunications is radio waves.

Radio waves can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that has its frequency ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz and its wavelength between 1mm and 3000m. Therefore, radio waves are a series of repetitive valleys and peaks that are typically characterized of having the longest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Basically, as a result of radio waves having long wavelengths, they are mainly used in long-distance communications such as the carriage and transmission of data.

Generally, a fixed speed is used for the propagation of traveling waves and this speed is usually denoted with the variable "v" or sometimes "c."

Furthermore, if the waveform of a traveling wave is repeated every time at specific intervals T, it is referred to as periodic wave.

Mathematically, the period of a traveling wave is given by the formula;

$Period = \frac {1}{T}$
