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!

ThIs is the same type of problem
find out the time value

t = 0.77 seconds
and the distance is given 5 m
thus speed ,= distance/time
speed = 5/0.77
= 6.45 m/s

How far will a free falling object fall in 8.7 secs if it started from rest? Remember acceleration is negative for free fall. Do

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

h~=371.26m

Explanation:

when an object falls we use the equations of accelerated motion. There is only one that gives distance.

$x = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}$

Since we have no initial velocity (started from rest) we can get rid of the (ut) term

where a we substitute g (gravitational acceleration, constant for given heights and almost 9.81m/s^2).

$h = \frac{1}{2} g {t}^{2} = \frac{1}{2} \times 9.81 \times {8.7}^{2} = 371.26m$
