Answer:

A - They are both electromagnetic waves.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves consisting of periodic oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, that vibrate in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave (for this reason, they are said to be "transverse waves").

Electromagnetic waves, unlike mechanical waves, can travel through a vacuum, and do not need a medium to propagate. Their speed in a vacuum is a constant and it is called speed of light ( $c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$ ).

Electromagnetic waves are classified, depending on their wavelength and frequency, into 7 different types - together they form the electromagnetic spectrum. The 7 types, listed from shortest to longest wavelength, are:

gamma rays

X-rays

ultraviolet radiation

visible light

infrared radiation

microwaves

radio waves

All these waves, despite having different properties, are all electromagnetic waves -so we see that both radio waves and gamma rays belong to this type of waves.

Potassium ions (K+) move across a 7.0 -mm- thick cell membrane from the inside to the outside. The potential inside the cell is

Reil [10]

Explanation:

Relation between potential energy and charge is as follows.

U = qV

or, $\Delta U = q \times \Delta V$

= $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 70 \times 10^{-3}$

= $112 \times 10^{-22}$ J

or, = $1.12 \times 10^{20} J$

Therefore, we can conclude that change in the electrical potential energy $\Delta U$ is $1.12 \times 10^{20} J$ .

How do altitude temperature and air pressure relate

kiruha [24]

They relate because the further up you go, the colder it gets, and the air pressure decreases the further up you go. The altitude temperature and the air pressure both decrease, and that is their relationship. Altitude temperature decreases, the higher you go, and air pressure also decreases, the higher up you go. Therefore, the lower down you go, the higher the air pressure, and the higher the altitude temperature.

Hope this helps and have a nice day:)
