Answer: Distance

Explanation:

 Distance is the unit of the light year and we can measure the light year by using the distance measurement. In one year, the light can travel at the velocity of 300000 km (Kilometer) in each seconds. Therefore, in every one year, they can travel 10 trillion kilometers.

Light year is also denoted as ly and it travel in one year at the empty space. The distance of the stars are generally measured in the light year as the objects in the space are mostly far away and they are using the small distance unit like astronomical unit.

What are the three longest wavelengths for standing waves on a 264- cm -long string that is fixed at both ends
miv72 [106K]

The three longest wavelengths for the standing waves on a 264-cm long string that is fixed at both ends are:

  1. 5.2 meters.
  2. 2.6 meters.
  3. 1.7meters.

Given data:

Length of the fixed string = 264cms = 2.64 meters

The wavelength for standing waves is given by:

λ = 2L/n

where,

  • λ is the wavelength
  • L is the length of the string

For n = 1,

  • λ = 2×2.6/1

= 5.2 meters

For n = 2,

  • λ = 2×2.6/2

= 2.6 meters

For n = 3,

  • λ = 2×2.6/3

= 1.7 meters

Which option best describes electromagnetic waves that have enough energy to change atoms or molecules into ions?
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

B.Ionizing radiation is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Ionizing radiation has sufficient energy that it can convert atoms and molecules into ions.

It has a sufficient amount of energy that it can separate tightly confined electrons from the orbit of an atom and causing that atom to become ionized.

Describe a sea-level transgression
Eduardwww [97]
<span>Some geographic areas endure cycles between these two processes called transgressive-regressive sequences. The rocks of western Pennsylvania are one example. Sandy beaches often leave observable records of transgression by covering marsh sediments that were once behind it as it moves inland. The original sediments are then covered by even deeper water sediments, which geologists can trace and record. It is generally believed that transgression will increase in accordance with rising sea levels worldwide</span>
