Sound waves are known to be the one that's not considered as a type of electromagnetic energy. As for microwaves and x-rays, they tend to share the same frequencies that can be considered as electromagnetic, and sound waves have a different frequency than them.
If bonds are broken, the energy is released, and if bonds are formed, energy is absorbed. During conversions from chemical energy to thermal energy, the energy stored in the chemical bonds are released and this energy causes surrounding molecules to move faster thus increasing the thermal energy of a substance.
Answer:
1. Electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum whereas mechanical waves do not.
2. The ripples made in a pool of water after a stone is thrown in the middle are an example of mechanical wave. Examples of electromagnetic waves include light and radio signals.
3. Mechanical waves are caused by wave amplitude and not by frequency. Electromagnetic Waves are produced by vibration of the charged particles.
4. While an electromagnetic wave is called just a disturbance, a mechanical wave is considered a periodic disturbance.
Explanation:
We don't even need to know how many pulses were produced
in those 3 seconds.
The beginning of the first pulse took 3 seconds to travel
45 centimeters from the generator.
Its speed is (45 cm) / (3 sec) = 15 cm/sec.
