Electromagnetic waves don't require a medium to travel.

aksik [14]3 years ago

Answer: B.Electromagnetic waves don't require a medium to travel.

Explanation:  

Electromagnetic waves can travel both in space as well as medium. These are transverse waves i.e. when they travel in medium, the medium particles vibrate perpendicular to the direction of motion of wave.

A electromagnetic wave is composed of electric and magnetic fields perpendicular to each other. These fields generate each other and that is the way an electromagnetic wave carries energy forward. An electromagnetic wave travels at the speed of light in space and slows down in medium. So, the correct answer is that an electromagnetic wave does not require a medium to travel. It can travel in space.

Leokris [45]

Answer:

3.57 m/s

Explanation:

The sum of the 2 momentums Is equal the finale momentums. so if momentums Is q, v Is velocity and m Is Mass, q3=m1*v1+m2**v2=16+9=25 m*kg/s

q3=m3*v3

v3=q3/m3=25/(4+3)=3.57m/s

If the wavelength of a wave is quadrupied then what happens to the frequency of the wqve(Assume speed is constant) ​
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

What happens to the wavelength of a wave if you double the frequency?

If the frequency of a wave is increased, what happens to its wavelength? As the frequency increases, the wavelength decreases. 2. If the frequency is doubled, the wavelength is only half as long.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ONE QUESTION
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

c) 2.02 x 10^16 nuclei

Explanation:

The isotope decay of an atom follows the equation:

ln[A] = -kt + ln[A]₀

<em>Where [A] is the amount of the isotope after time t, k is decay constant, [A]₀ is the initial amount of the isotope</em>

[A] = Our incognite

k is constant decay:

k = ln 2 / Half-life

k = ln 2 / 4.96 x 10^3 s

k = 1.40x10⁻⁴s⁻¹

t is time = 1.98 x 10^4 s

[A]₀ = 3.21 x 10^17 nuclei

ln[A] = -1.40x10⁻⁴s⁻¹*1.98 x 10^4 s + ln[3.21 x 10^17 nuclei]

ln[A] = 37.538

[A] = 2.01x10¹⁶ nuclei remain ≈

<h3>c) 2.02 x 10^16 nuclei</h3>

Which objects will likely have the smallest gravitational force between them?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

A. Two tennis balls that are near each other  

Explanation:

The formula for gravitational force (F) between two objects is

F = \dfrac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{d^{2} }

where m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the two objects, d is the distance between their centres, and G is the gravitational constant.

Thus, two objects that are far from each other will have a smaller gravitational force. We can eliminate Options C and D.

If the objects are at the same distance, those with the smaller mass will have a smaller force.

The mass of a tennis ball is 57 g.

The mass of a soccer ball is 430 g.

Two tennis balls that are near each other will have a smaller gravitational attraction.

The statements below are all true. Some of them represent important reasons why the giant impact hypothesis for the Moon’s forma
Molodets [167]

Answer:

the order of importance must be     b e a f c

Explanation:

Modern theories indicate that the moon was formed by the collision of a bad plant with the Earth during its initial cooling period, due to which part of the earth's material was volatilized and as a ring of remains that eventually consolidated in Moon.

Based on the aforementioned, let's analyze the statements in order of importance

b) True. Since the moon is material evaporated from Earth, its compassion is similar

e) True. If the moon is material volatilized from the earth it must train a finite receding speed

a) True. The solar system was full of small bodies in erratic orbits that wander between and with larger bodies

f) False. The moon's rotation and translation are equal has no relation to its formation phase

c) false. The amount of vaporized material on the moon is large

Therefore, the order of importance must be

         b e a f c
