X-rays are electromagnetic waves. Like any other electromagnetic waves, they are transverse waves, and travel at the speed of light.

X ray is one of the electromagnetic waves.

As per Clark Maxwell's electromagnetic theory, all the electromagnetic waves move with the velocity of light i.e c= 3×10^8 m/s

In case of electromagnetic waves,the electric field and magnetic field are perpendicular to each other as well as perpendicular to the direction of propagation.The electromagnetic waves exhibit the property of polarisation. Hence they are transverse in nature.

Hence the best statements about X- ray will be-

1- X -rays are electromagnetic waves

2-X-rays are transverse transverse waves

3- X- rays travel at the speed of light.

Answer:

They can't hear an echo in small room because in it the sound can't be reflected back. For an echo of a sound to be heard,the minimum distance between the source of sound and the walls of the room should be 17.2 m.

A 1-kg collar (located at point (2,2) from the origin) is pulled along a vertical, frictionless bar with a force of 10 N applied
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The acceleration of the collar is 10 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the collar, m = 1 kg

applied force on the bar, F = 10 N

The acceleration of the collar can be calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

where;

F is the applied force

m is mass of the object

a is the acceleration

a = F / m

a = 10 / 1

a = 10 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the collar is 10 m/s²

A plucked violin string carries a traveling wave given by the equation f(x,t)=asin[b(x−ct)+ϕi], with a = 0.00580 m , b = 33.05 m
Viktor [21]

Answer:

A) Φ = 0 , B)  T = 7.76 s

Explanation:

A) to find the value of the phase constant replace the value

          0 = a sin (b (0- 0) + Φ)

           0 = sin Φ

           Φ = sin⁻¹ 0

           Φ = 0

B) the period is defined by time or when the movement begins to repeat itself

So that the sine function is repeated when the angle passes 2pi

            b (x- ct) = 2pi

If we are at a fixed point x = 0

           b c t = 2pi

            t = 2π / bc

Let's calculate

            T = 2π / (33.05 245)

            T = 7.76 s
