Physics

Kaylis [27]4 years ago
8 0

Answer: The passage of a light wave can cause electrically charged particles to move up and down.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are transversal waves, they are a combination of oscillating electric and magnetic fields, which propagate through space carrying energy from one place to another.  

This means the oscillation of the wave occurs in the transversal direction to its propagation. In addition, electromagnetic waves are spread thanks to the electromagnetic fields produced by moving electric charges.

katrin [286]

Answer:

90°

Explanation:

The angle will be 90° when momentum for a system can be conserved in one direction while not being conserved in another.

The example can be

If we apply force on an object horizontally in west direction, then as in other direction south or north we cannot apply the principal of momentum conservation.

Which type of force absorbs shock in vehicles
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Vehicles typically employ both hydraulic shock absorbers and springs or torsion bars. In this combination, "shock absorber" refers specifically to the hydraulic piston that absorbs and dissipates vibration.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

the principle of original horizontality and the principle of superposition

Explanation:

The <em>principle of horizontality</em> states that layers of sediment are originally deposited horizontally under the influence of gravity.

The <em>principle of superposition</em> states that the oldest layer layer is at the bottom and each layer above it is younger, with the youngest being at the top.

Unconformities help us find the age of different layers. An unconformity is a surface in which no new solid matter is deposited after a long geologic interval. <em>Angular unconformity </em>is a type of unconformity which different kinds of stratum were tilted or folded before deposition of younger layers of solid matter above the unconformity. Once the layers were folded and tilted, the older layers of the solid matter eroded, then the younger layers were deposited on the older layers. There <em>angular unconformity </em>is the contact between young and old layers of solid matter.

Therefore, these two principles therefore describe how the tilted layers are older than horizontal layers.
