Name 2 ways that sound waves and electromagnetic waves are different. Describe specifically.

Physics
1 answer:
Vlad1618 [11]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:Sound waves are longitudinal waves that is, are transmitted in the same direction of oscillation of the particles in the medium. Electromagnetic waves are transverse ie, the electric and magnetic fields, which are perpendicular to each other, oscillate perpendicularly to the direction of wave propagation.

A charged cloud system produces an electric field in the air near earth's surface. a particle of charge -2.0 × 10-9 c is acted o
defon

Part a)

Magnitude of electric field is given by force per unit charge

E = \frac{F}{q}

E = \frac{4.3 * 10^{-6}}{2 * 10^{-9}}

E = 2150 N/C

Part b)

Electrostatic force on the proton is given as

F = qE

F = 1.6 * 10^{-19} * 2150

F = 3.44 * 10^{-16} N

PART C)

Gravitational force is given by

F_g = mg

F_g = 1.6 * 10^{-27}*9.8

F_g = 1.57 * 10^{-26} N

PART d)

Ratio of electric force to weight

\frac{F_e}{F_g} = \frac{3.44 * 10^{-16}}{1.57*10^{-26}}

\frac{F_e}{F_g} = 2.2 * 10^{10}

4. How does a molecule differ from an atom
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a molecule, atoms are bonded together by single, double, or triple bonds. An atom has a nucleus surrounded by electrons. ... So another difference between atoms and molecules is that when similar atoms combine together in varying numbers, molecules of different properties can be formed.

An early method of measuring the speed of light makes use of a rotating slotted wheel. A beam of light passes through one of the
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

4.7 x 10³ rad / s

Explanation:

During the time light goes and comes back , one slot is replaced by next slot while rotating  before the light source

Time taken by light to travel a distance of 2 x 500 m is

= (2 x 500) / 3 x 10⁸

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ s .

In this time period, two consecutive slots come before the source of light one after another by rotation. There are 400 slots so time taken to make one rotation

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ x 400

= 13.33 x 10⁻⁴ s

This is the time period so

T = 13.33 X 10⁻⁴

Angular speed

= 2π / T

= \frac{2\times3.14}{13.33\times10^{-4}}

4.7 x 10³ rad / s

1. Calcula la fuerza de atracción electrostática entre dos cuerpos de cargas q1 = -18 C y q2 = +5 mC, separados entre sí por una
romanna [79]

Answer:

A) F=-20.16×10⁹N

B) if the distance doubles, force is 4 times smaller.

Explanation:

q1=-28C

q2=5mC=0.005C

d=25cm=0.25m

Electrostatic force between charges: F=k×q1×q2/d², where k is a coefficient that has the value k=9 × 10⁹ N⋅m²⋅C^(-2) for air.

Thus:

F=9×10⁹×(-28)×0.005/0.25²

F=-20.16×10⁹N

The minus sign indicates attraction.

If distance doubles, d1=2×d, then we have 4d² at the denominator and the force is 4 times smaller.
