Answer:

The correct answer is B negative y-direction

Explanation:

An electromagnetic wave is created by the fluctuation of the electric and magnetic fields, which are perpendicular to each other, the direction of propagation is perpendicular to these two fields.

Let's apply the above to our problem, the wave propagates in the positive direction of the z-axis so that the electric and magnetic fields must be in the xy plane

They express that the electric field is in the negative direction of the x-axis, for the direction of the other field, we can make the vectoial product E x B with the result must be in positive z the only way is that the magnetic field (B) is in the negative direction of the y axis

The correct answer is B negative y-direction

<u>Answer</u>

A. Metals A and metals B



<u>Explanation</u>

Heat transfer takes place whenever there is temperature difference. When two bodies of different temperatures are brought together, heat energy will move from one body to the other until equilibrium temperature is reached.

In our case, heat transfer will take place in all four metals.

Metal A will transfer heat to the water since it's temperature is higher than that of water.

Metal B will also transfer heat to the water since it's temperature is higher than that of water.

Metal C will get heat from the water since it's colder than the water.

Metal D will also get heat from the water since it is colder than water.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Acceleration  =  (change in speed)  /  (time for the change)

                       =      (49 m/s)   /   (5 seconds)

                       =       (49 / 5)  m/s  /  s

                       =            9.8 m/s²

Man made objects that spread an impulse over a large amount of time
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Examples of man-made objects that spread an impulse over a large amount of time are "airbags" in vehicles and "arrestor beds" (for trucks).

Explanation:

The question above is highly related to the topic about "Impulse" in Physics.

"Impulse"<em> refers to an object's change in momentum (the amount of motion in an object) when a force acts upon it for an interval time.</em> When it comes to providing safety to people when it comes to vehicular crashes, impulse plays a vital role.

Let's take the example of airbags in vehicles. Once a vehicle collides with another object, the driver is carried by a forward motion. Without airbags, the time is normally shorter for the driver to be stopped by the windshield. This results to a greater force. However, with the presence of air-bags, the driver will hit the airbag, instead of the windshield. <u>This will lengthen the time of the impact, thus reducing the force.</u>

Another example are the arrestor beds for trucks. Arrestor beds have been designed in order for trucks to stop, since it's hard to maneuver them. <u>With the help of arrestor beds, trucks are able to come to a stop with a longer time interval, but decreased force.</u>
