The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Which statement about those waves is true?

Physics
1 answer:
Vladimir [108]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: The correct answer for this question is letter (B) The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not. The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Space, between the sun and the earth is a nearly vacuum. So mechanical wave can not spread out in the vacuum.

Hope this helps!

Allisa [31]

Explanation:

 i1=1ampere

i1+i2=I

VA−VB=i1×3Ω=i2×6

⇒1×3=i2×6

2i=21ampere

Hence I=i1+i2=1+0.5=1.5ampere

Req=2+3+63×6=2+93×6=4Ω

Three capacitors with individual capacitances of 2 μF, 5 μF, and 10 μF
rodikova [14]

Answer:

1.25C

Explanation:

When capacitance is in series we add them like this: 1/Ctotal = 1/C1 +1/C2 + 1/C3.....

1/C = 1/2 + 1/5 + 1/10 = 5 + 2 + 1/10 = 8/10

C = 10/8 = 1.25

Capacitance = Charge/potential difference(Q/V)

1.25 = Charge/12

Total charge = 1.25 ×12 =15coulombs

The place you get your hair cut has two nearly parallel mirrors 6.5 m apart. As you sit in the chair, your head is
Ghella [55]

Complete question is;

The place you get your hair cut has two nearly parallel mirrors 6.50 m apart. As you sit in the chair, your head is 3.00 m from the nearer mirror. Looking toward this mirror, you first see your face and then, farther away, the back of your head. (The mirrors need to be slightly nonparallel for you to be able to see the back of your head, but you can treat them as parallel in this problem.) How far away does the back of your head appear to be?

Answer:

13 m

Explanation:

We are given;

Distance between two nearly parallel mirrors; d = 6.5 m

Distance between the face and the nearer mirror; x = 3 m

Thus, the distance between the back-head and the mirror = 6.5 - 3 = 3.5m

Now, From the given values above and using the law of reflection, we can find the distance of the first reflection of the back of the head of the person in the rear mirror.

Thus;

Distance of the first reflection of the back of the head in the rear mirror from the object head is;

y' = 2y

y' = 2 × 3.5

y' = 7

The total distance of this image from the front mirror would be calculated as;

z = y' + x

z = 7 + 3

z = 10

Finally, the second reflection of this image will be 10 meters inside in the front mirror.

Thus, the total distance of the image of the back of the head in the front mirror from the person will be:

T.D = x + z

T.D = 3 + 10

T.D = 13m

An ocean wave travels 10.9 m in 5.1 s. the distance between two consecutive wave crests is 4 m. what is the frequency of the wav
Jlenok [28]
The speed of the wave is given by Distance divided by time.
Speed = 10.9/5.1
            = 2.14 m/s
But; speed is also given by frequency multiplied by wavelength
Wavelength is 4 m( distance between two successive crests)
thus; 2.14 = 4 × f
          f = 2.14/4
            = 0.535 Hz
