There are a variety of waves from light waves to mechanical waves. Waves can exhibit different effects like the Doppler Effect.
All light waves behave in a similar manner. They either get transmitted, reflected, absorbed, refracted, polarized, diffracted, or scattered based off of the composition of the object and the wavelength of the light.
According to Wikipedia, “One important property of mechanical waves is that their amplitudes are measured in an unusual way, displacement divided by (reduced) wavelength. When this gets comparable to unity, significant nonlinear effects such as harmonic generation may occur, and, if large enough, may result in chaotic effects.” Mechanical waves are chaotic and its “amplitudes” are measured unusually.
Diffraction is when light bends around objects and spread after passing out through small openings. “Diffraction occurs with all waves, including sound waves, water waves, and electromagnetic waves such as light that the eye can see.”-Wikipedia. Here is the formula to Diffraction: <em>d </em>sin <em>θ </em>= <em>nλ</em>
Doppler effect can occur for any type of wave like sound or water waves. An example of this is when we hear a police car with its sirens on, coming towards us. The closer you are to the police car, the higher the wavelength, but the farther away you are, the lower the wavelength.

The force pushing down is the force of Gravity. On a chair it is in perfect balance with the force pushing up (the normal force)
in terms of magnitude
FN = FG = mg
the forces are in opposite direction
hope this helps
Answer:
The galaxies outside of our own are moving away from us, and the ones that are farthest away are moving the fastest. This means that no matter what galaxy you happen to be in, all the other galaxies are moving away from you
Explanation:
<span>procedure would most likely help determine a chemical property of the substance is : exposing it to a flame to see if it catches on fire
Chemical property is the characteristic that a substance has that differntiate it with another substance. The most common charatcteristics that most scientists wanted to know are :
- It's flamability
- It's radioactivity
- Its toxicity
By throwing the object into fire, we will easily find out these 3 characteristics</span>
