"(4) Both types of waves transfer energy." is the best option from the list regarding the characteristics <span>common to all electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves</span>
Novosadov [1.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: The correct answer is (4).

Explanation:

Electromagnetic wave is the transverse wave. It is produced by the moving charged particle. It travels at the speed of the light. It does not require a medium to travel. It can travel through the vacuum.

In mechanical wave, there is an oscillation of matter. It requires a medium to travel. It cannot travel through vacuum. The three types of mechanical waves are longitudinal wave, transverse wave and surface wave.

The common characteristics to all electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves are both can move through matter and both can occur as a result of a disturbance. This disturbance is a result of wave transfer energy.

Therefore, the common characteristic to all electromagnetic and mechanical waves is both types of waves transfer energy.

A battery can provide a current of 1.80 A at 2.60 V for 6.00 hr. How much energy (in kJ) is produced?A battery can provide a cur
love history [14]

Answer:

The energy which is produced by a battery is 101.1 kJ.

Explanation:

The expression for the energy in terms of voltage, current and time is as follows;

E=VIt

Here, V is the voltage, I is the current and t is the time.

It is given in the problem that a battery can provide a current of 1.80 A at 2.60 V for 6.00 hr.

Calculate the energy of the battery.

E=VIt

Convert time from hour int seconds.

t=6 hr

t=(6)(60)(60)

t=21600 s

Put I= 1.80 A, V= 2.60 V and t= 21600 s in the expression of energy.

E=(2.60)(1.80)(21600)

E= 101.1 kJ

Therefore, the energy which is produced by a battery is 101.1 kJ.

How far does light travel in the time it takes sound to travel 1 cm in air at 20°c?
kykrilka [37]
The speed of sound at 20^{\circ}C is approximately v=343 m/s. The distance covered by the sound wave is
s=1 cm=0.01 m
And the time it takes is
t= \frac{S}{v}= \frac{0.01 m}{343 m/s}=2.9 \cdot 10^{-5} s

Now we want to find how far the light travels during this time. Light travels at speed c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s, therefore the distance it covers during this time is
S=ct = (3 \cdot 10^8 m/s)(2.9 \cdot 10^{-5} s)=8700 m

How does a compound eye work?
Reil [10]
<span>The Compound Eye. The arthropod (e.g., insects, crustaceans) eye is built quite differently from the vertebrate eye (and the mollusk eye). Arthropod eyes are called compound eyes because they are made up of repeating units, the ommatidia, each of which functions as a separate visual receptor.</span>
