Answer:

D.transverse waves move perpendicular and longitudinal waves move parallel to the direction of energy movement

Explanation:

Transverse wave : It is defined as the wave in which the the vibration of the particles of the medium through which the wave travel is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. Example : electromagnetic wave

Longitudinal wave : It is defined as the wave in which the the vibration of the particles of the medium through which the wave travel is parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. example : Sound wave

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance? If we

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to ohm's law, the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current is that current passing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage over resistance.

Mathematically, I = $\frac{V}{R}$

From this relationship we can see that when we decrease the voltage, and do not change the resistance, the current will also decrease. As current is directly proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance.

A plane electromagnetic wave travels northward. At one instant, its electric field has a magnitude of 9.6 V/m and points eastwar

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The values is $B = 3.2 *10^{-8} \ T$

The direction is out of the plane

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The magnitude of the electric field is $E = 9.6 \ V/m$

The magnitude of the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

$B = \frac{E}{c}$

where c is the speed of light with value

$B = \frac{ 9.6}{3.0 *10^{8}}$

$B = 3.2 *10^{-8} \ T$

Given that the direction off the electromagnetic wave( c ) is northward(y-plane ) and the electric field(E) is eastward(x-plane ) then the magnetic field will be acting in the out of the page (z-plane )
