Answer:
Mechanical waves need matter to transfer energy while electromagnetic waves do not. ... Waves change direction when they move from one material into another (matter) through the process of refraction. The wave will change direction when the speed of the wave changes.
Answer:
Copper is a better heat conductor than glass. In general, we think of metals as good conductors. In fact, metals vary widely in their conductivity but, overall, they are better conductors of heat than most liquids and gasses. Other solids also vary in their capability to conduct heat.
Explanation:
Answer:
a) E = 1.47 × 10^5 N/C
b) south
Explanation:
The magnitude of an electric field can be defined mathematically as;
E = F/q ........1
Where,
E = magnitude of the electric field
F = electric force
q = charge on the proton
Given;
F = 2.36 × 10^-14 N
Note that charge on a proton is known as Qp = 1.602 × 10^-19 C
q = 1.602 × 10^-19 C
Substituting into equation 1, we have;
E = 2.36 × 10^-14 N/1.602 × 10^-19 C
E = 1.47 × 10^5 N/C
b) The direction of the electric field;
From equation 1
E = F/q ........1
since both electric field and electric force are vector quantity and q is a positive charge (constant), then both the electric field and electric force would be parallel to each other. Therefore the electric field is directed to the south also.
(When a vector is multiplied by a positive constant the direction remains the same)
Answer:we can calculate the answer by following steps;
