<h3>Answer:</h3>

Vacuum

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept being tested: Waves and types of waves

To answer the question we need to define both electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves.

  • Waves can be classified as either electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves based on whether they require a material medium for transmission or not.
  • Electromagnetic waves do not require a material medium for transmission and can travel through a vacuum.
  • Mechanical waves, on the other hand, are waves that require a material medium for transmission.

What are examples of electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves?

  • Examples of electromagnetic waves include gamma rays, radio waves, visible light, etc.
  • Examples of mechanical waves include sound waves and water waves.

Therefore, the answer to our question is;

  • Electromagnetic waves are not mechanical waves, which means they can travel in a vacuum.

A force F=0.12N is aplied on spring and spring elongates by 3cm . specific constant of spring ​
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The spring constant is 4 N/m

Explanation:

When a spring is stretched/compressed by the application of a force, the relationship between the magnitude of the force applied and the elongation of the spring is given by Hooke's law:

F=kx

where

F is the magnitude of the spring applied

k is the spring constant

x is the elongation of the spring, relative to its equilibrium position

For the spring in this problem, we have:

F = 0.12 N (force applied)

x = 3 cm = 0.03 m (elongation of the spring)

Therefore, we can solve the formula for k to find the spring constant:

k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{0.12}{0.03}=4 N/m
