True or false? All waves need a medium in order to travel

Physics

Art [367]3 years ago

That's false.  Mechanical waves (like sound and ocean waves) do
need a medium to travel in, but electromagnetic waves (like radio
and light) don't.
Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago

That is false because electromagnetic waves can travel without a medium.

hope this helps :)

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The right solution will be the "2v".

Explanation:

For something like an object underneath pure rolling the speed at any point is calculated by:

⇒  v_{rolling}=v_{translational}+v_{rotational}

Although the angular velocity was indeed closely linked to either the transnational velocity throughout particular instance of pure rolling as:

⇒  \omega=\frac{v_{translational}}{r}

Significant meaning is obtained, as speeds are in the same direction. Therefore the speed of rotation becomes supplied by:

⇒  v_{rotational}=\omega \times r

On substituting the estimated values, we get

⇒                   =\frac{v_{translational}}{r} \times r

⇒                   =v_{translational}

So that the velocity will be:

⇒  v_{rolling}=v+v

⇒              =2v

A simple pendulum consisting of a bob of mass m attached to a string of length L swings with a period T on Earth. Calculate the
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

T = T

Explanation:

Time period of a simple pendulum is not affected by the mass of the bob. As we know, T = 2\pi \sqrt{L/g} . There is no factor of mass affecting when we derived the equation. The basic reason behind the time period is not affected is because of mass dependence on angular acceleration. As the mass increases the acceleration increase and the Time Period remains constant.

What are some examples of wave refractions?​
ankoles [38]

-- The lenses of eyeglasses work because of refraction.

-- A pencil standing in a half-glass of water looks broken because of refraction.

-- The lenses and mirrors in telescopes and microscopes work because of refraction.

-- When the sun is setting and it looks squashed ... shorter and wider than a true circle ... that's caused by refraction of the sunlight through Earth's atmosphere.
