Which is a characteristic that makes electromagnetic waves and water waves different

1 answer:

4 0

We know that a wave is a disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space There are two main types of waves: Mechanical and Electromagnetic. Water waves are mechanical. A mechanical wave is an oscillation of matter to transfers energy, but you always need a medium (substance such as: solid, liquid, gas, plasma) to transport it. The medium for water waves is, in fact, the water. For example, ripple in water is a surface wave. On the other hand, electromagnetic waves don't need a medium to transport, they can do it through the empty space. Then, this is the major characteristic that makes these two types of waves different.

An aluminum bar 600mm long, with diameter 40mm, has a hole drilled in the center of the bar. The hole is 40mm in diameter and 10

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1.228 x $10^{-6}$ mm

Explanation:

diameter of aluminium bar D = 40 mm

diameter of hole d = 30 mm

compressive Load F = 180 kN = 180 x $10^{3}$ N

modulus of elasticity E = 85 GN/m^2 = 85 x $10^{9}$ Pa

length of bar L = 600 mm

length of hole = 100 mm

true length of bar = 600 - 100 = 500 mm

area of the bar A = $\frac{\pi D^{2} }{4}$ = $\frac{3.142* 40^{2} }{4}$ = 1256.8 mm^2

area of hole a = $\frac{\pi(D^{2} - d^{2}) }{4}$ = $\frac{3.142*(40^{2} - 30^{2})}{4}$ = 549.85 mm^2

Total contraction of the bar = $\frac{F*L}{AE} + \frac{Fl}{aE}$

total contraction = $\frac{F}{E} * (\frac{L}{A} +\frac{l}{a})$

==> $\frac{180*10^{3}}{85*10^{9}} *( \frac{500}{1256.8} + \frac{100}{549.85})$ = 1.228 x $10^{-6}$ mm

Help me please Which of the following statements best describes the atoms and molecules that make up a glass

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

The correct option is;

The atoms and molecules of the liquid water are moving, while the atoms and molecules of the glass are not moving

Explanation:

Matter that exist in the liquid or gaseous state consist of molecules that move freely about in the entire containing medium for gas, while the molecules move freely in the portion of the container occupied by the fluid in the case of liquid fluids

However, the molecules of a solid are fixed within the current shape of the solid and are only free to vibrate within a fixed location and the allow the passage of subatomic particles such as electrons

As such, the glass cup being a solid, consists of molecules fixed in space, while the liquid water consists of molecules which can translate within the portion of the volume of the glass filled with the water.

Water has a high heat capacity. What does this term mean? a) Water is relatively resistant to an increase in temperature. b) Wat

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:a) Water is relatively resistant to an increase in temperature

Explanation:

Water has relatively high heat capacity i.e. it requires high amount of heat to raise a little increase in temperature.

Heat capacity is defined as ability of molecule to absorb heat . Mathematically heat capacity is defined as

$C=\frac{Q}{\Delta T}$

where $C=heat\ capacity$

$Q=heat\ interaction$

$\Delta T=change\ in\ Temperature$
