Answer: The correct answer for this question is letter (B) The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not. The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Space, between the sun and the earth is a nearly vacuum. So mechanical wave can not spread out in the vacuum.

The rate of change of d(t) at t = 2 and t = 6 is the ratio between the change of distance (difference between the distances) to the time elapsed. That is,
r = (576 - 64) / (6 - 2) = 128 ft /s
The rate of change is equal to 128 ft/s and this represents the average speed at this time interval.
Answer:
A The force of air resistance becomes equal in magnitude to his weight.
Explanation:
When Carlos jumped out of the helicopter, he fell with a downward force which is proportional to his weight.
His weight is the product of his mass and acceleration due to gravity.
When the parachute is deployed, air resistance between the air molecules and the surface area of the parachute generates a drag force, which acts upwards.
If the drag forces exceeds his weight, then his net force will be directed upwards.
If his weight exceeds the drag forces, then the net force on his body will be downwards.
In the case that his drag force, and his weight are equal, there will be a zero net force on him, and he will experience no acceleration.
So, if after he opens his parachute, his acceleration due to gravity decreases to zero, then we can say that this is because the force of air resistance (drag) becomes equal in magnitude to his weight.
I believe that the answer is C. Hope this Helps:)))
The nature of the wave is a sinusoidaly varying wave.. the each particle of the wave moves up and down.. in the phase
