Answer:

Electromagnetic waves differ from the other types of waves because they are energy waves which do not require material medium for their propagation, and as such they travel through vacuum.

Explanation:

A wave can be either mechanical or electromagnetic.

Electromagnetic waves are those types of waves which do not require material medium for their propagation. While mechanical waves are those types of waves which require material medium for their propagation.

Electromagnetic waves differ from the other types of waves because they are energy waves which do not require material medium for their propagation, and as such they travel through vacuum.

Correct answer choice is :



B) Able to travel through a vacuum.



Explanation:



Electromagnetic waves are applied to carry long/short/FM wavelength radio waves, and TV/telephone/wireless signals or services. They are also effective for transferring energy in the form of microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays. Electromagnetic waves change from mechanical waves in that they do not need a medium to generate. This means that electromagnetic waves can move not only in the air and solid matters but also in the void of space.

How much power is needed to lift the 200-N object to a height of 4 m in 4 s?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: 2000 watts

Explanation:

Given that,

power = ?

Weight of object = 200-N

height = 4 m

Time = 4 s

Power is the rate of work done per unit time i.e Power is simply obtained by dividing work by time. Its unit is watts.

i.e Power = work / time

(since work = force x distance, and weight is the force acting on the object due to gravity)

Then, Power = (weight x distance) / time

Power = (200N x 4m) / 4s

Power = 8000Nm / 4s

Power = 2000 watts

Thus, 2000 watts of power is needed to lift the object.

If your prediction turns out to be false your experiment has been a failure
nikdorinn [45]

This is false. Your hypothesis, or prediction, is just that: a prediction. Saying its a failure will result in bias.
