Answer:

The property of the wave marked X is related to the source of the wave

Explanation:

The source of of origin of waves

Electromagnetic wave are waves that consists of varying electric and magnetic field that vibrate perpendicular to each other and to the direction of propagation of the wave and they are therefore transverse waves and transfer energy

Electromagnetic waves originate from the vibration of charged particles that gives off varying electric and magnetic fields

Mechanical waves are defined as waves that require a material medium such as air, water, metal, plastic, stretched leather, or wood to propagate

Mechanical waves originate from vibration of the particles of a medium

Sound waves which is a form of longitudinal mechanical waves that propagates by the vibration of the particles of a given medium about a point parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.

A speed skater moving across frictionless ice at 8.8 m/s hits a 6.0 m -wide patch of rough ice. She slows steadily, then continu

irina [24]

Recall that

v² - u² = 2 a ∆x

where u and v are initial and final velocities, respectively; a is acceleration; and ∆x is the distance traveled (because the skater moves in only one direction).

So we have

(5.8 m/s)² - (8.8 m/s)² = 2 a (6.0 m)

a = ((5.8 m/s)² - (8.8 m/s)²) / (12 m)

a = -3.65 m/s²

serious [3.7K]

Answer: The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is $PbS_2$

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here metal lead is having an oxidation state of +4 called as $Pb^{4+}$ cation and sulphur non metal has oxidation state of -2 called as $S^{2-}$ . Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral $PbS_2$

The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is $PbS_2$
