Which statement describes the speed of electromagnetic waves?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Their speed in a vacuum is a constant value.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consits of oscillations of electric field and magnetic field. The oscillations of these fields occur in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the waves, so they are transverse wave. Electromagnetic waves, contrary to mechanical waves, do not need a medium to propagate, so they can also travel through a vacuum. In a vacuum, their speed is constant and has always the same value, the speed of light:

c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s

Elenna [48]

Answer:

19320 kg/m³

Explanation:

density: This can be defined as the ratio of the mass of a body to its volume. The S.I unit of Density is kg/m³.

The formula of density is given as,

D = m/v ......................... Equation 1.

Where D = Density of the gold, m = mass of the gold, v = volume of the gold.

Note: From Archimedes's Principle, the piece of gold displace an amount of water that is equal to it's volume.

Amount of water displace = 27.2 - 25 = 2.2 mL.

Given: m = 42.504 g = 0.042504 kg, v = 2.2 mL = (2.2/10⁶) m³ = 0.0000022 m³

Substitute into equation 1

D = 0.042504/0.0000022

D = 19320 kg/m³

Hence the density of the piece of gold = 19320 kg/m³
