What happens to an electromagnetic wave as it passes from space to matter?

Electromagnetic radiation is one of the many ways that energy travels through space. The heat from a burning fire, the light from the sun, the X-rays used by your doctor, as well as the energy used to cook food in a microwave are all forms of electromagnetic radiation. While these forms of energy might seem quite different from one another, they are related in that they all exhibit wavelike properties.

Answer:

When an electromagnetic wave passes from space to matter, some part of the energy is absorbed by the matter and it increases its energy. The wave may reflect and some part may pass through the matter depending on the amount of energy they have. The amplitude of the wave decreases if some parts of it are reflected.

1.How is the law of conservation of energy demonstrated by the movement of the pendulum?
Snezhnost [94]
1. Law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created, nor destroyed, for example, windmills take kinetic energy(movement energy) and convert it into electrical energy using gears and a generator as well as the blades.

so this supports it because the pendulum never reaches the same height twice unless you reset it so the energy is always getting less and less and not randomly getting back onto the pendulum.

2.Gravity, friction and air resistance slow it down as well

3. at the top, potential energy is the amount of energy something has relative to the amount it can disperse before stopping, for example, a book on a shelf has more potential energy than that of a book on a table, this is because when the shelf book falls it will create more energy than the table book.

Atoms in a solid are not stationary, but vibrate about their equilibrium positions. Typically, the frequency of vibration is abo
hoa [83]

To develop this problem it is necessary to use the equations of description of the simple harmonic movement in which the acceleration and angular velocity are expressed as a function of the Amplitude.

Our values are given as

f = 4.11 *10^{12} Hz

A = 1.23 * 10^{-11}m

The angular velocity of a body can be described as a function of frequency as

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi 4.11 *10^{12}

\omega=2.582*10^{13} rad/s

PART A) The expression for the maximum angular velocity is given by the amplitude so that

V = A\omega

V =( 1.23 * 10^{-11})(2.582*10^{13})

V =  = 317.586m/s

PART B) The maximum acceleration on your part would be given by the expression

a = A \omega^2

a =( 1.23 * 10^{-11})(2.582*10^{13})^2

a= 8.2*10^{15}m/s^2
