In your own words, explain why light can travel with or without a medium

Physics
1 answer:
Darya [45]4 years ago
7 0
I'm not really sure if it's completely right but I was taught that light can travel without a medium because light is composed of quanta called photons, and since it is a property of photons that they don't require a medium of transmission
( sorry if that doesn't make sense )

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

dV = 32.98 cm³

Explanation:

We know that

V = f ( h,r)

dV= \frac{\partial V}{\partial r}dr+ \frac{\partial V}{\partial h}dh

We also know that

V=\pi r^2h

dV= 2\pi h dr + \pi r^2 dh

Given that

h= 10 cm

d=10 cm ,  r= 5 cm

Thickness = 0.05 cm so  dr = 0.05 cm

The metal in the top and the bottom is 0.2 cm thick  so dh = 0.2 + 0.2 cm

dh = 0.4 cm

Now by putting the values

dV= 2\pi h dr + \pi r^2 dh

dV= 2\times \pi \times 5\times 0.05 + \pi \times 5^2\times 0.4\ cm^3

dV = 32.98 cm³

0.500 kg of ethyl alcohol at 33.0°C
Bingel [31]

Answer:

26.06

Explanation:

One thing to note first is that, after the ethyl alcohol and water is mixed, the heat energy (Q) is equal for both of them. So:    

<h3>m c ΔT (water) = m c ΔT (ethyl) </h3>

Second thing to note is that ΔT is just the absolute value of the final temperature of the solution minus the initial temperature of the ethyl, or water. So the previous equation becomes:

<h3>m c (Tfin - Tinit) (water) = m c (Tfin - Tinit) (ethyl) </h3>

And since we know the mass and specific heat of the water and ethyl alcohol, we can substitute those in:

<h3>2093(Tfin - 22) = 1225(33 - Tfin) </h3>

(I wrote 33 - Tfin for ethyl because ΔT should be a positive number in this case)

Now finally we can expand out the parenthesis and use a little algebra to solve:

<h3>2093Tfin - 46046 = 40425 - 1225Tfin</h3>

Now use algebra to separate the Tfin coefficients onto one side and everything else on the other, and we get:

<h3>3318Tfin = 86471</h3>

And when you divide both sides be 3318, you get your answer of:

<h3>Tfin = 26.06118 or 26.1 for significant figures</h3>

Hope that helps!

irga5000 [103]

Answer:      780080

Explanation: BY FORMULA OF K.E

                           K.E=  1/2 MV^2

                                 =  1/2 (1990)(28)^2

                                 =   780080 JOULE
