The correct answer to the question will be B) Both can be characterized by amplitude, frequency, and wavelength. The speed of both is affected by the medium through which it travels.

EXPLANATION:

Light is an electromagnetic wave which is transverse in nature. It contains both the electric field and magnetic field which are perpendicular to each other as well as perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

We know that a transverse wave is characterized by its amplitude, frequency and wavelength . Here, crests and troughs are created which give the idea about the wavelength . The distance between two successive crests or troughs is called wavelength.

A sound wave is a longitudinal wave which moves in the form of compressions and rarefactions. Compressions are the high pressure zones while rarefactions are the low pressure zones in the wave. Here, the distance between two successive compresions or rarefactions is called wavelength of the wave. It is also characterized by frequency and amplitude.

The speed of light is medium dependent . It is more in optically rarer medium while less in optically denser medium . The light does not require any medium for its propagation. It may propagate through space where it has the maximum velocity.

The speed of sound is also medium dependent . It depends on the density and elasticity of the medium.It can not travel through vacuum. It needs a medium for its propagation.

You are trying to determine the specific gravity of a solid object that floats in water. If m is the mass of your object, mS is

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Specific Gravity = m/[m(s)-m(os)]

Explanation:

Specific gravity, also called relative density, is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance. By this definition we need to find out the ratio of density of the object of mass m to the density of the surrounding liquid.

m = mass of the object

Weight in air

W (air) = mg, where g is the gravitational acceleration

Weight with submerged with only one mass

m(s)g + Fb = mg + m(b)g, consider this to be equation 1

where Fb is the buoyancy force

Weight with submerged with both masses

m(os)g + Fb’ = mg + m(b)g, consider this to be equation 2

equation 1 – equation 2 would give us

m(s)g – m(os)g = Fb’ – Fb

where Fb = D x V x g, where D is the density of the liquid the object is submerged in, g is the force of gravity and V is the submerged volume of the object

m(s)g – m(os)g = D(l) x V x g

m(s) – m(os) = D(l) x V

we know that Mass = Density x V, which in our case would be, D(b) x V, which also means

V = Mass/D(b), where D(b) is the density of the mass

Substituting V into the above equation we get

m(s) – m(os) = [D(l) x m)/ D(b)]

Rearranging to get the ratio of density of object to the density of liquid

D(b)/D(l) = m/[m(s)-m(os)], where D(b)/D(l) denotes the specific gravity

After their loss to U of A, the ASU sumdevils traveled back to Tempe which is 187

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The average speed is 20.8 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed for the trip is given by:

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time elapsed

For the trip in this problem, we have:

d = 187 km = 187,000 m is the distance travelled

The initial time is 10:00 pm while the arriving time is 12:30 am: this means that the time elapsed is 2.5 hours. Converting into seconds,

$t = 2.5 h \cdot (60)(60)=9000 s$

Therefore, the average speed for the trip is

$v=\frac{187,000}{9000}=20.8 m/s$

Both slicing a tomato and a chemical change such as burning toast cannot be reversed. however why is slicing a tomato sill consi

kondaur [170]

Slicing a tomato is still considered a physical change because you are only altering the shape of it by slicing it. It does not change color or make bubble when slicing the tomato. Therefore, it is still a physical change

miskamm [114]

Pluto would be placed 39.74 feet far from the Sun.

Astronomers use the gap between Earth and the sun, which is ninety-three million miles, as a new unit of measure called the Astronomical Unit.

Map scale refers to the connection (or ratio) between the space on a map and the corresponding distance on the ground. For example, on a 1:one hundred thousand scale map, 1cm at the map equals 1km on the ground.

The distance between the earth and solar, a = around 150 million km, is defined as one Astronomical Unit (AU). The radius of the solar, the solar is around 700,000 km.
