Which of the following statements about electromagnetic radiation is true?

Physics
1 answer:
madam [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct option is B: It consists of perpendicularly oscillating electric and magnetic fields, and the direction of propagation is perpendicular to both.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation travels at the speed of light (c = 3x10⁸ m/s) only in a vacuum. In another propagation medium, the speed of electromagnetic radiation is less than c.    

The oscillations of the waves of the electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other, and the direction of propagation is also perpendicular to the two fields.        

           

From all of the above, the correct option is B: It consists of perpendicularly oscillating electric and magnetic fields, and the direction of propagation is perpendicular to both.        

I hope it helps you!

Answer:

D. crystalline solid that conducts current under certain conditions

Explanation:

Semiconductors are crystalline solids that has the ability to conduct electrical currents but on certain conditions e.g heat. The conduction of semiconductors is less than that of conductors (metals) but more than insulators (nonmetals), hence, they are said to be intermediates of conductors and insulators in terms of electrical conductivity.

Examples of semiconductors are silicon, boron, carbon, germanium, arsenic etc.

The cable of a crane is lifting a 950 kg girder. The girder increases its speed from 0.25 m/s to 0.75 m/sin a distance of 5.5m
Umnica [9.8K]

Explanation:

a) How much work is done by gravity?

  • w = f x d
  • w = 950 x 10 x 5.5 = 52250j

b) How much work is done by tension?

  • v²=u²+2as
  • 0.75²=0.25²+2a x5.5
  • 0.56=0.06+2a x5.5
  • 2a x5.5 = 0.56 - 0.06
  • 2a x 5.5 =0.5
  • 11a=0.5
  • a = 0.5/11 = 0.05m/s²

w = f x d

w = 950 x 0.05 x 5.5 = 261.25j

what is the net force if you push a cart to the right with 5N of force and a friend pushes the cart to the left with 5N of force
Novosadov [1.4K]
The net force will be zero. Since the forces are in opposite direction and equal amount, they will cancel out.
