Electromagnetic waves require a medium to transfer energy True or False

Physics
1 answer:
Simora [160]3 years ago
7 0

The statemengt is <em>false</em>. Electromgnetic waves do not require a medium to transfer energy. They can transfer energy through vacuum (empty space with nothing in it). If electrimagnetic waves needed a medium to move through from place to place, then we could never see the sun, and also it would get very cold here.

Two identical bowling balls are rolling on a horizontal floor without slipping. The initial speed of both balls is v = 10 m/s. B
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The difference between frictionless ramp and a regular ramp is that on a frictionless ramp the ball cannot roll it can only slide, but on a regular ramp the ball can roll without slipping.

We will use conversation of energy.

K_A_1 + U_A_1 = K_A_2 + U_A_2\\\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0 = 0 + mgH_A

Note that initial potential energy is zero because the ball is on the bottom, and the final kinetic energy is zero because the ball reaches its maximum vertical distance and stops.

For the ball B;

K_B_1 + U_B_1 = K_B_2 + U_B_2

\frac{1}{2}I_B\omega^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0 = 0 + mgH_B

The initial velocities of the balls are equal. Their maximum climbing point will be proportional to their final potential energy. Since their initial kinetic energies are equal, their final potential energies must be equal as well.

Hence, both balls climb the same point.

Atoms that are bonded together to form a new material with new<br> properties and characteristics. .
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Atoms form chemical bonds to make their outer electron shells more stable. ... An ionic bond, where one atom essentially donates an electron to another, forms when one atom becomes stable by losing its outer electrons and the other atoms become stable (usually by filling its valence shell) by gaining the electrons.

If you make multiple measurements of your height, you are likely to find that the results vary by nearly half an inch in either
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Height h= 1.7 m

Explanation:

Supposing we have to find height in meter.

1 feet = 0.3048 m

1 inch = 0.0254 m

Given that:

5 feet

= 5×0.3048

= 1.524 m

and 7 inch = 7×0.0254= 0.1778 m

Therefore total height of a man in meter

5 feet 7 inch = 1.5424+0.1778 =1.7 m

Height h= 1.7 m
