Answer:

Inference

Explanation:

An inference involves the application of logic to progress from a premise to a conclusion or logical consequence on the basis of the evidence or known fact. Inference is a process of thought that be divided into a deduction and an induction aspect.

In the given question Halley, by standing outside was able to deduce the sound of thunder she is then able by inductive reasoning from the fact that storms are usually preceded by and accompany lightening, conclude that there is a storm coming.

Light waves have some similarities with water and sound waves, but they are not exactly the same. Describe all the differences y

makkiz [27]

Answer:

<h2>All the waves are pertubations that propagate (transport) energy.</h2><h2></h2>

Nevertheless, they have some differences:

1. Light waves are electromagnetic waves, while sound and water waves are mechanical waves, this is the first and principal difference.

2. Electromagnetic waves can propagate in vacuum (they do not need a medium or material), but mechanical waves obligatory need a material to propagate

3. Light waves are always transversal waves, this means the oscillatory movement is in a direction that is perpendicular to the propagation; but mechanical waves may be both: longitudinal waves (the oscillation occurs in the same direction as the propagation) or transversal waves.

4. Electromagnetic waves propagates at a constant velocity (Light velocity) while the velocity of mechanical waves will depend on the type of wave and the density of the medium or material.

5. Mechanical waves are characterized by the regular variation of a single magnitude, while electromagnetic waves are characterized by the variation of two magnitudes: the electric field and the magnetic field

6. Water waves are 2-dimensional waves, while the light and the sound are tridimensional spherical waves

7. Light waves transports energy in the form of radiation, while mechanical waves transport energy with material
