The three properties of electromagnetic waves are; they travel at the speed of light, they include ultraviolet waves, and they can transfer energy through empty space.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2><h3>A wave</h3>
  • A wave is a transmission of a disturbance. It involves transmission of energy from one point which is the source to another point.
  • Waves may be classified depending on the need for a transmission medium or based on the vibration of particles relative to the direction of wave motion.
  • Waves may be either transverse or longitudinal based on the direction of wave motion relative to the vibration of particles
  • Additionally waves may be classified as either electromagnetic wave or mechanical based on the need for a transmission medium.
<h3>Electromagnetic waves  </h3>
  • Electromagnetic waves are types of waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.
  • All waves of the electromagnetic spectrum are electromagnetic transverse waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.
  • They include; radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultra-violet, x-rays, and gamma rays.
  • All waves of the electromagnetic spectrum travel with a speed of light, 3.0 x10^8 m/s.
  • Additionally, electromagnetic waves possess energy that is given by; E = hf; where h is the plank's constant and f is the frequency.

How many components do vectors have, and what are they?
zepelin [54]

Answer:

There are two components for a two-dimensional coordinate system/vector.

Explanation:

For two-dimensional vectors, such as velocity, acceleraton, etc, there are two components, the x- and y-components.

These components could be rotated or translated, depending on the coordinate system.

Instead of rectangular cartesian system, the components could also be in the form of polar coordinates, such as radius and theta (angle).

For three-dimensional vectors, such as velocity in space, there are three components, in various coordinate systems.

Suppose a NASCAR race car rounds one end of the Martinsville Speedway. This end of the track is a turn with a radius of approxim
Schach [20]

Complete Question

Suppose a NASCAR race car rounds one end of the Martinsville Speedway. This end of the track is a turn with a radius of approximately 57.0 m . If the track is completely flat and the race car is traveling at a constant 30.5 m/s (about 68 mph ) around the turn.

Required:

a. What is the race car's centripetal (radial) acceleration?

b. What is the force responsible for the centripetal acceleration in this case?

O normal

O gravity

O friction

O weight

Answer:

question a

       a = 16.32 \  m/s^2

question b

        correct option is option 3

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The radius is  r = 57.0 \ m \

    The constant speed at which the race car is travelling is v  = 30 .5 \ m/s

Generally from the question we are told that the track is completely flat so the only force pulling the car to the middle is the frictional force hence the centripetal force is due to the frictional force

    Generally the centripetal acceleration is mathematically represented as

      a = \frac{v^2}{r}

=>    a = \frac{30.5^2}{ 57}

=>    a = 16.32 \  m/s^2

When the voltage is at a maximum positive value, the current is at a value that is_________.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

When the voltage is at a maximum positive value, the the current is at a value that is maximum and positive

Explanation:

We know that the relation between the Voltage and the current is given using the Ohm's law, which states that the voltage (V) is directly proportional to the current (I)

Mathematically,

V ∝ I

Hence,

When the voltage is at a maximum positive value, the the current is at a value that is maximum and positive

A car needs to generate 75.0 hp in order to maintain a constant velocity of 27.3 m/s on a flat road. What is the magnitude of th
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

2048.63 N

Explanation:

Force: The product of mass and the  acceleration of a body. The S.I unit of Force is Newton(N).

From the question

P = F×V.................... Equation 1

Where P = power generated by the car, F = Total resistive force acting on the car, V = Velocity of the car.

make F the subject of the equation

F = P/V................ Equation 2

Given: P = 75.0 hp = (75×745.7) = 55927.5 W, V = 27.3 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

F = 55927.5/27.3

F = 2048.63 N

Hence the total resistive force acting on the car = 2048.63 N

A parallel-plate capacitor in air has a plate separation of 1.31 cm and a plate area of 25.0 cm2. The plates are charged to a po
morpeh [17]

Answer:

a) before immersion

C = εA/d = (8.85e-12)(25e-4)/(1.31e-2) = 1.68e-12 F

q = CV = (1.68e-12)(255) = 4.28e-10 C

b) after immersion

q = 4.28e-10 C

Because the capacitor was disconnected before it was immersed, the charge remains the same.

c)*at 20° C

C = κεA/d = (80.4*)(8.85e-12)(25e-4)/(1.31e-2) = 5.62e-10 F

V = q/C = 4.28e-10 C/5.62e-10 C = 0.76 V

e)

U(i) = (1/2)CV^2 = (1/2)(1.68e-12)(255)^2 = 5.46e-8 J

U(f) = (1/2)(5.62e-10)(0.76)^2 = 1.62e-10 J

ΔU = 1.62e-10 J - 5.46e-8 J = -3.84e-8 J
