<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.

It takes 185 kj of work to accelerate a car from 23.0 m/s to 28.0 m/s. what is the car's mass?
Pachacha [2.7K]
<span>This question is based on conservation of energy as the work done would lead to change in kinetice energy of car change in KE = 1/2 mv(f)^2 - 1/2mv(i)^2 = 1/2m(v(f)^2-v(i)^2) where v(f) and v(i) are the final and initial speeds change in KE = 185kJ = 185,000J = 1/2 m((28m/s)^2-(23m/s)^2) 185,000=1/2 m(255m^2/s^2) solving for m m=1451kg</span>

Corn plants and milkweed plants grow in the same area. Over several years, the milkweed plants have taken over the field and the
erma4kov [3.2K]

Weeds are very important agronomically because they reduce the yield of crops in three ways: by competing with the crop for water, light and nutrients, by interfering with crop harvest, and by contaminating harvested products with weed seeds and toxins. Weeds can reduce yield up to 50% and are responsible for millions of dollars in crop losses each year.

It’s biotic factor would be competition as Competition can be defined as an interaction between organisms or species, in which the fitness of one is lowered by the presence of another.
