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.

otez555 [7]

Answer:

balloon is rigid the amount of gas is constant inside the interior pressure of the balloon is constant and in these cities it becomes equal to or slightly higher than atmospheric pressure

Explanation:

Este ejercicio es referente a la mecánica de fluidos, usemos la expresión para la presión  

       P = ρ g h

En es el caso del balón  usemos la presión en la pared extrema, llamemos P la presión por el gas en el interior y P_ext la presión atmosférica del lugar

        cuando se llena el valor en una ciudad de baja altura la presión atmosférica es mas alta

          P_int1 < P_ext1

por lo cual la pared del balón no se mantiene rígida.

Cuando el balón es trasladado a una ciudad con mayor altura sobre el nivel del mar la presión exterior disminuye

       P_ext2 = ρ g h₂ < P_ext1

en promedio la presión disminuye con la altura  en 0,029 atm cada 250 m

por lo tanto como la cantidad de gas es constante en el interior la presión interior del globo es constante y en esta ciudades se hace igual o un poco mayor que la presión atmosférica, en consecuencia la pared del globo esta rígida

        P_int2 >P_ext2

Traslate

This exercise is related to fluid mechanics, let's use the expression for pressure

       P = ρ g h

In the case of the balloon, let's use the pressure on the extreme wall, let's call P the pressure for the gas inside and P_ext the atmospheric pressure of the place

        when the value is filled in a low-lying city the atmospheric pressure is higher

          P_int1 <P_ext1

therefore the wall of the ball does not remain rigid.

When the ball is transferred to a city with higher altitude above sea level, the external pressure decreases

       P_ext2 = ρ g h <P_ext1

on average the pressure decreases with height by 0.029 atm every 250 m

therefore as balloon is rigid the amount of gas is constant inside the interior pressure of the balloon is constant and in these cities it becomes equal to or slightly higher than atmospheric pressure, therefore the wall of the

A briefcase sits stationary in an elevator. The mass of the briefcase if 4.5 kg. The elevator then begins accelerating upwards a
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

D. 48.985 N

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that:

\sum F = ma

which means that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between the object's mass and its acceleration.

The equation of the forces for the briefcase in the elevator therefore is given by:

N-mg=ma

where

N is the normal reaction exerted on the briefcase

(mg) is the weight of the briefcase, with

m = 4.5 kg being its mass

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

a = 1.10 m/s^2 is the acceleration

Here we chose upward as positive direction.

Solving for N, we find the normal force:

N=mg+ma=m(g+a)=(4.5)(9.81+1.10)=49.095 N

So the closest answer is

D. 48.985 N
