Answer:

x = -6.5 meters

Explanation:

The position of a ball as a function of time t is given by :

$x=3\ m+(-5\ m/s)t$ ..................(1)

Where t is time in seconds

We need to find the position of the ball at 1.9 s. It can be simply calculated putting t = 1.9 s in equation (1) as :

$x=3+(-5)(1.9)$

x = -6.5 meters

So, the position of the ball at 1.9 seconds is -6.5 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which are characteristics of electromagnetic waves?check all that apply.

emmainna [20.7K]

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, $c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s$ )

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

Murljashka [212]

Helium, neon and Xeon belong to the same Column( Group) which is Column 18 or you can say Group 8 in roman numbers
don't forget if you say group you should write in roman numbers okay. Best of luck

Mechanical energy is energy stored in objects by tension. Compressed springs and stretched rubber bands are examples of stored mechanical energy.

Nuclear energy is energy stored in the nucleus of an atom—the energy that holds the nucleus together. Large amounts of energy can be released when the nuclei are combined or split apart.

Gravitational energy is energy stored in an object's height. The higher and heavier the object, the more gravitational energy is stored. When a person rides a bicycle down a steep hill and picks up speed, the gravitational energy is converting to motion energy. Hydropower is another example of gravitational energy, where gravity forces water down through a hydroelectric turbine to produce electricity.

Kinetic energy

Kinetic energy is the motion of waves, electrons, atoms, molecules, substances, and objects.

Radiant energy is electromagnetic energy that travels in transverse waves. Radiant energy includes visible light, x-rays, gamma rays, and radio waves. Light is one type of radiant energy. Sunshine is radiant energy, which provides the fuel and warmth that make life on earth possible.

Thermal energy, or heat, is the energy that comes from the movement of atoms and molecules in a substance. Heat increases when these particles move faster. Geothermal energy is the thermal energy in the earth.

Motion energy is energy stored in the movement of objects. The faster they move, the more energy is stored. It takes energy to get an object moving, and energy is released when an object slows down. Wind is an example of motion energy. A dramatic example of motion energy is a car crash—a car comes to a total stop and releases all of its motion energy at once in an uncontrolled instant.

Sound is the movement of energy through substances in longitudinal (compression/rarefaction) waves. Sound is produced when a force causes an object or substance to vibrate. The energy is transferred through the substance in a wave. Typically, the energy in sound is smaller than in other forms of energy.

Electrical energy is delivered by tiny charged particles called electrons, typically moving through a wire. Lightning is an example of electrical energy in nature.
