Describe the medium that electromagnetic waves use to travel

Physics
1 answer:
erik [133]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to propagate means they  can travel through air and solid material and the vacuum of space too.

they move the fastest through gases mostly because particles in gases are spread out more than the particles in solids or in liquids so they move quickly through gases.

What is the special feature of the upper mantle?
mote1985 [20]
The special feature of the upper mantle is the asthenosphere.It is located just below the lithosphere and is made up of rocks that is fluid and can move.The fluidity of these rocks powered the movement of the tectonic plates on the earths crust.Circular convection cycles in the hot,fluid upper mantle rock move the plates over the surface of the earth.

Estimate how long a 2500 W electric kettle would take to boil away 1.5 Kg of water . The specific latent heat of vaporization of
andrew-mc [135]

The time it would take a 2500 W electric kettle to boil away 1.5 Kg of water is 2400 seconds

<h3>How to calculate the time</h3>

Use the formula:

Power × time = mass × specific heat

Given mass = 1. 5kg

Specific latent heat of vaporization = 4000000 J/ Kg

Power = 2500 W

Substitute the values into the formula

Power × time = mass × specific heat

2500 × time = 1. 5 × 4000000

Make 'time' the subject

time = 1. 5 × 4000000 ÷ 2500 = 6000000 ÷ 2500 = 2400 seconds

Therefore, the time it would take a 2500 W electric kettle to boil away 1.5 Kg of water is 2400 seconds.

A point P1 is located by the vector A = (3.74)î + (1.64)ĵ and a point P2 is located by the vector B = (1.60)î + (3.66)ĵ. The vec
seropon [69]

Answer:

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

Explanation:

The vector that point from point P1 to point P2 its found simply by taking the vector at which point P2 its located and subtracting the vector at which point P1 its located:

\vec{C} = \vec{B} - \vec{A}

So:

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ , \ 3.66 \ ) - ( \ 3.74 \ , \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ - \ 3.74 \ , \ 3.66 \ - \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

Derive an expression for the energy needed to launch an object from the surface of Earth to a height h above the surface.Ignorin
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Potential energy on the surface of the earth

= - GMm/ R

Potential at height h

=  - GMm/ (R+h)

Potential difference

= GMm/ R -  GMm/ (R+h)

= GMm ( 1/R - 1/ R+h )

= GMmh / R (R +h)

This will be the energy needed  to launch an object from the surface of Earth to a height h above the surface.

Extra  energy is needed to get the same object into orbit at height h

= Kinetic energy of the orbiting object at height h

= 1/2 x potential energy at height h

= 1/2 x GMm / ( R + h)
