Physics
1 answer:
Lana71 [14]3 years ago
8 0


1. Electromagnetic waves travel with a constant velocity in vacuum . The velocity is approximately 186,000 miles per second or 300, 000 km per sec, the same as the speed of light.

2.Electromagnetic waves are not deflected  by electric or magnetic fields

3. Electromagnetic waves can show interference or diffraction

4. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves, similar to water waves in the ocean or the waves seen on a guitar string. 

5. Electromagnetic waves may be polarized.

6. Electromagnetic waves need no medium  of propagation.

A car is traveling north with a velocity of 18.1 m/s. Find the velocity of the car after 7.50 seconds if the acceleration is 2.4
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Hello!

Vx = V0x + Ax*t
Vx = 18.1 + 2.4t

Let’s take time as 7.50 seconds:
Vx = 18.1 + 2.4*7.50
Vx = 18.1 + 18 = 36.1 m/s

Then, the final velocity of the car is 36.1 m/s.

Neutron stars consist only of neutrons and have unbelievably high densities. a typical mass and radius for a neutron star might
Tanya [424]
<span>Density is 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Dime weighs 1.5x10^12 pounds The definition of density is simply mass per volume. So let's divide the mass of the neutron star by its volume. First, we need to determine the volume. Assuming the neutron star is a sphere, the volume will be 4/3 pi r^3, so 4/3 pi 1.9x10^3 = 4/3 pi 6.859x10^3 m^3 = 2.873x10^10 m^3 Now divide the mass by the volume 9.9x10^28 kg / 2.873x10^10 m^3 = 3.44588x10^18 kg/m^3 Since we only have 2 significant digits in our data, round to 2 significant digits, giving 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Now to figure out how much the dime weighs, just multiply by the volume of the dime. 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 * 2.0x10^-7 m^3 = 6.8x10^11 kg And to convert from kg to lbs, multiply by 2.20462, so 6.8x10^11 kg * 2.20462 lb/kg = 1.5x10^12 lb</span>
