Answer:
Explanation:
given,
cyclist ride 6.2 km east and then 9.28 km in the direction of 27.27° west of north and then 7.99 km west.
vertical component = 9.28 cos∅
= 9.28 cos 27.27°
= 8.24 km
horizontal axis component = 9.28 sin ∅
= 9.28 sin 27.27°
= 4.5 km
distance of the final point from the origin
= 7.99 -(6.2-4.5)
= 6.29 km
displacement
d = 10.37 km
b)
θ = 37.36°

Answer:
Line 3 has a mistake.
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillations of electric and magnetic fields that oscillate perpendicular to the each other. Therefore, Line 1 is correct.
Also, the fields in an electromagnetic waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave: therefore, they are transverse waves. So Line 2 is also correct.
Electromagnetic waves, contrary to mechanical waves, do not need a medium to propagate: so, they can also travel through a vacuum. Therefore, Line 3 is wrong.
Finally, all electromagnetic waves travel through a vacuum at the same speed, called speed of light:
So, Line 4 is also correct.
