Which of the following best describes why we say that light is an electromagnetic wave?
Kaylis [27]

Answer: The passage of a light wave can cause electrically charged particles to move up and down.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are transversal waves, they are a combination of oscillating electric and magnetic fields, which propagate through space carrying energy from one place to another.  

This means the oscillation of the wave occurs in the transversal direction to its propagation. In addition, electromagnetic waves are spread thanks to the electromagnetic fields produced by moving electric charges.

If all objects that have mass also have gravity, why doesn't your pencil get pulled towards you while it sits on your desk?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The pencil is not pulled towards a person due to a very small magnitude of force between them, due to lighter masses.

Explanation:

Let us apply Newton's Law of Gravitation between a person and pencil.

Average Mass of a Normal Pencil = m₁ = 10 g = 0.01 kg

Average Mass of a Person = m₂ = 80 kg

Distance between both = r = 1 cm = 0.01 m (Taking minimal distance)

Gravitational Constant = G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

So,

F = Gm₁m₂/r²

F = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(0.01 kg)(80 kg)/(0.01 m)²

<u>F = 5.34 x 10⁻⁷ N</u>

This Force is very small in magnitude due to the light masses of both objects.

<u>Therefore, the pencil is not pulled towards a person due to a very small magnitude of force between them, due to lighter masses.</u>

Two students 8 meters apart are holding a stretched, coiled spring between them. One student sends a pulse down the string, and
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance travelled by wave = 8 x 2 = 16 m

Time taken = 4 s

velocity of pulse wave = distance / time

= 16 m / 4 s

= 4 m/s
