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.

Answer:

the correct one is D,  

Ultraviolet, x-ray, gamma ray

Explanation:

Electromagnetism radiation are waves of energy that is expressed by the Planck relationship

          E = h f

where h is the plank constant and f the frequency of the radiation.

Also the speed of light is

          c = λ f

         

we substitute

          E = h c /λ

therefore to damage the cells of the body radiation of appreciable energy is needed

microwave radiation has an energy of 10⁻⁵ eV

infrared radiation                E = 10⁻² eV

visible radiation                   E = 1 to 3 eV

radiation Uv                         E = 3 to 6 eV

X-ray                                    E = 10 eV

 

gamma rays                         E = 10 5 eV

therefore we see that the high energy radiation is gamma rays, x-rays and ultraviolet light.

which law of thermodynamics would be violated if heat were to spontaneously flow between two abject which are in thermal equilib
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The law zero of thermodynamics.

Explanation:

The law zero of thermodynamics, which tells us that heat flows from a body at a higher temperature to another body with lower temperature, when the heat transfer is zero, it is said that the two bodies are in thermal equilibrium, their temperatures are equal

How many leptons are in ⁷₃Li?
shutvik [7]

-- Electrons are leptons.  There are <em>three</em> electrons in each neutral Lithium atom.

The last two parts of the question are absurd.

-- Bonbons are candy, not atomic particles.  A bonbon cannot fit into a Lithium atom.

-- A pentagon is a closed geometric figure that has five sides.  Although you could, in principle, have a pentagon small enough to fit into a Lithium atom, you could never find a piece of paper small enough to draw it on.
