One difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves is that mechanical waves need a medium to pass through (solid, liquid, gas). EM waves can travel through matter or though a vacuum. In regards to telecommunications, EM waves can be radio waves, these are used in TV's, phones, computers, radios. Mechanical waves somewhat relate to this since radios produce sound;so an EM wave would turn into a mechanical vibration inside a speaker then sound would be produced.
Answer:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(2-0)/(0-(-2))
m=2/(0+2)
m=2/2
m=1 ==> Gradient of graph
x-int: (-2, 0)
y-int: (0, 2)
Explanation:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(2-0)/(0-(-2))
m=2/(0+2)
m=2/2
m=1 ==> Gradient of graph
x-int: (-2, 0) ==> When y=0
y-int: (0, 2) ==> When x=0
As the earth has active tectonics we know that rocks are recycled and the oldest rocks may therefore just be the oldest rocks that have not been recycled yet. We know the true age of the earth by looking at radioactive isotopes of things like spacedust and meteors that formed at the same time as the earth as they have not been affected by the tectonic process of recycling here on Earth.
What I think will happen as time goes by and right this second is that the earth is just going to fill and fill and fill with pollution
