Light waves have some similarities with water and sound waves, but they are not exactly the same. Describe all the differences y

makkiz [27]

Answer:

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

Nevertheless, they have some differences:

1. Light waves are electromagnetic waves, while sound and water waves are mechanical waves, this is the first and principal difference.

2. Electromagnetic waves can propagate in vacuum (they do not need a medium or material), but mechanical waves obligatory need a material to propagate

3. Light waves are always transversal waves, this means the oscillatory movement is in a direction that is perpendicular to the propagation; but mechanical waves may be both: longitudinal waves (the oscillation occurs in the same direction as the propagation) or transversal waves.

4. Electromagnetic waves propagates at a constant velocity (Light velocity) while the velocity of mechanical waves will depend on the type of wave and the density of the medium or material.

5. Mechanical waves are characterized by the regular variation of a single magnitude, while electromagnetic waves are characterized by the variation of two magnitudes: the electric field and the magnetic field

6. Water waves are 2-dimensional waves, while the light and the sound are tridimensional spherical waves

7. Light waves transports energy in the form of radiation, while mechanical waves transport energy with material

When you drive a car around a curve that is not banked, what force provides the centripetal acceleration? HINT: Think about turn

algol [13]

The centripetal force is provided by the friction between the tyres and the ground. That's why a car will slip on ice, because there is less friction.

A sample of nitrogen gas exerts a pressure of 9.80 atm at 32 C. What would its temperature be (in C) when its pressure is increa

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

T₂ = 111.57 °C

Explanation:

Given that

Initial pressure P₁ = 9.8 atm

T₁ = 32°C = 273 + 32 =305 K

The final pressure P₂ = 11.2 atm
