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.

What is the gravitational force on a 70kg that is 6.38x10^6m above the earths surface

NARA [144]

Answer:

171.5 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force on an object due to the Earth is given by

$F=mg$

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

The acceleration due to gravity at a certain height h above the Earth is given by

$g=\frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}$

where:

G is the gravitational constant

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ is the Earth's mass

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ is the Earth's radius

Here,

$h=6.38\cdot 10^6 m$

So the acceleration due to gravity is

$g=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24})}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 6.38\cdot 10^6)^2}=2.45 m/s^2$

We know that the mass of the object is

m = 70 kg

So, the gravitational force on it is

$F=mg=(70)(2.45)=171.5 N$

100 Points!!!

(1) The image of an object placed further from the lens than the focal point will be upside down and smaller than the object.

(2) When light rays reflect, they bounce back.

(3) Images formed by a concave lens will look magnified.

(4) When light rays enter a different medium, they bend.

<h3>1.0 Object placed further from the lens than the focal point</h3>

The image of an object placed further from the lens than the focal point will be diminished and inverted.

Thus, the correct answer will be "upside down and smaller than the object".

<h3>2.0 What is reflection of light?</h3>

The ability of light to bounce back when it strike a hard surface is known as refection.

<h3>3.0 Image formed by concave lens</h3>

A concave lens is diverging lens is usually virtual, erect and magnified.

<h3>4.0 Refraction of light</h3>

The change in speed of light when it travels from medium to another medium is known as refraction. Refraction is also, the ability of light to bend around obstacles.

When approaching an intersection, bridge, or railroad crossing, you should never drive (pass on the left half of the roadway whe

e-lub [12.9K]

You should not go into the left side of the roadway when within 100 feet of the crossing. Moreover, you should also turn on your turn signal when within 100 of a turn. These precautions prevent accidents as it makes clear to other drivers what your intentions are and drivers making turns are not endangered.
