Correct choices are marked in bold:
travel in straight lines and can bounce off surfaces --> TRUE, normally electromagnetic waves travel in straight lines, however they can be reflected by objects, bouncing off their surfaces
travel through space at the speed of light --> TRUE, all electromagnetic waves in space (vacuum) travel at the speed of light, )
travel only through matter --> FALSE; electromagnetic waves can also travel through vacuum
travel only through space --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves can also travel through matter
can bend around objects --> TRUE, this is what happens for instance when diffraction occurs: electromagnetic waves are bended around obstacles or small slits
move by particles bumping into each other --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves are oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, so no particles are involved
move by the interaction between an electric field and a magnetic field --> TRUE, electromagnetic waves consist of an electric field and a magnetic field oscillating in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave
Answer:
If x₁=12 cm then k=1.7985 N/m
If x₂=15 cm then k=1.4388 N/m
Explanation:
Hanging mass= 22 g=0.022 kg
Acceleration due to gravity g=9.81 m/s²
If x₁=displacement= 12 cm=0.12 m
k= spring constant
∴k = 1.7985 N/m
If x₂=15 cm=0.15 m
Force of the hanging mass is same however the spring constant will change
∴k = 1.4388 N/m
As the mass is not changing the spring constant has to change. That means that here there are two spring one with k=1.7985 N/m and the other with k= 1.4388 N/m
