Answer:

C. Perpendicular to one another and perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are the waves which arise due to vibrations of both electric and magnetic fields. In electromagnetic waves, the electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other and also both the electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation i.e. if the wave is propagating in x-direction then electric field can be in z-direction and magnetic field can be in y-direction since all the three axes are perpendicular to each other.

A light shines up from the bottom of a fish pond.
likoan [24]
<span>For the question "A light shines up from the bottom of a fish pond. Which diagram shows the correct path of light as it leaves the water of the pond and hits the air?" The second diagram is the correct answer. Water has a higher refractive index than air so the ray of light passing from water to air will be refracted away from the normal (the vertical) towards the surface of the water.</span>

Two identical heavy balls are dropped from the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The second ball is dropped 1 s after the first
Pepsi [2]

As the balls continue to accelerate to the ground,  the distance between them before the first ball hits the ground will increase.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

Acceleration is defined as the rate change of velocity with time.

acceleration a = (Δv) / (Δt)

Two identical heavy balls are dropped from the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The second ball is dropped 1 s after the first ball. The first ball start falling 1s earlier than the second ball. Thus, the acceleration for first ball will be greater than the second ball.

Thus, the distance between them before the first ball hits the ground will increase.

A semicircular plate with radius 6 m is submerged vertically in water so that the top is 2 m above the surface. Express the hydr
dalvyx [7]

Answer: 313920

Explanation:First, we’re going to assume that the top of the circular plate surface is 2 meters under the water. Next, we will set up the axis system so that the origin of the axis system is at the center of the plate.

Finally, we will again split up the plate into n horizontal strips each of width Δy and we’ll choose a point y∗ from each strip. Attached to this is a sketch of the set up.

The water’s surface is shown at the top of the sketch. Below the water’s surface is the circular plate and a standard xy-axis system is superimposed on the circle with the center of the circle at the origin of the axis system. It is shown that the distance from the water’s surface and the top of the plate is 6 meters and the distance from the water’s surface to the x-axis (and hence the center of the plate) is 8 meters.

The depth below the water surface of each strip is,

di = 8 − yi

and that in turn gives us the pressure on the strip,

Pi =ρgdi = 9810 (8−yi)

The area of each strip is,

Ai = 2√4− (yi) 2Δy

The hydrostatic force on each strip is,

Fi = Pi Ai=9810 (8−yi) (2) √4−(yi)² Δy

The total force on the plate is found on the attached image.

A person hears sounds with a frequency in the range of about 16 Hz to 20000 Hz. What is the wavelength of sound in air and water
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

v=f×λ

Explanation:

v=f×λ

v is the speed of sound

f is the frequency of sound

λ is the wavelength

The speed of sound in air and water is different, but the frequency can be calculated from the given range above.

HAVE FUN LEARNING!!!( sorry im just to lazy to get the number so...)
