Tell how electromagnetic waves differ from mechanical waves

Physics
1 answer:
Fudgin [204]3 years ago
3 0
<span>Electromagnetic and mechanical waves differ in that electromagnetic waves are always longitudinal and do not require a known medium, while mechanical waves are either longitudinal or compression waves and require a medium. All known electromagnetic waves are also known as forms of light.</span>

Answer:

The work done will be W=55.27\: J

Explanation:

The work equation is given by:

W=F\cdot x

Where:

F is the force due to gravity (weight = mg)

x is the length of the ramp (3 m)

Now, the force acting here is the component of weight in the ramp direction, so it will be:

F_{x-direction}=mgsin(28)

Therefore, the work done will be:

W=mgsin(28)*3

W=4*9.81*sin(28)*3

W=55.27\: J

I hope it helps you!

When you lift an object, you add the energy of lifting to the object.<br> Tor F
PtichkaEL [24]

It's true, when we lift an object we add energy to it.

because, when we lift an object by applying force , the object attains a height and hence the energy gets stored in it, in the form gravitational potential energy .

The surface of the paper is phosphorescent. When light shines on it, some of the energy is absorbed and re-emitted slowly over t
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Recall that the hierarchy of wavelength color from minimum wavelength to maximum wavelength is:

V < I < B < G < Y < O < R; and

E  \ \alpha  \ \dfrac{1}{\lambda}

As a result, blue light has a higher energy level than green and red light.

As a result, the surface glows due to the blue LED. The green LED, on the other hand, would not allow the surface to glow as much as the red LED, which has a lower energy level when compared to the green light. As a result, the red LED would not allow the surface to glow as well.
