You first subtract the speed at which the man is moving (11 m/s) from the rate the boat is moving (12.4 m/s). Which equals 1.4, then divide it by 6 meters, as the man is moving relative to the boat.

It therefore equals 4.29 s

Which are characteristics of electromagnetic waves?check all that apply.
emmainna [20.7K]

Correct choices are marked in bold:

travel in straight lines and can bounce off surfaces  --> TRUE, normally electromagnetic waves travel in straight lines, however they can be reflected by objects, bouncing off their surfaces

travel through space at the speed of light  --> TRUE, all electromagnetic waves in space (vacuum) travel at the speed of light, c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s)

travel only through matter  --> FALSE; electromagnetic waves can also travel through vacuum

travel only through space  --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves can also travel through matter

can bend around objects  --> TRUE, this is what happens for instance when diffraction occurs: electromagnetic waves are bended around obstacles or small slits

move by particles bumping into each other  --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves are oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, so no particles are involved

move by the interaction between an electric field and a magnetic field --> TRUE, electromagnetic waves consist of an electric field and a magnetic field oscillating in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave
