What are electromagnetic waves?

Physics
2 answers:
Zinaida [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves or EM waves are waves that are created as a result of vibrations between an electric field and a magnetic field. In other words, EM waves are composed of oscillating magnetic and electric fields.

A changing magnetic field will induce a changing electric field and vice-versa the two are linked. These changing fields form electromagnetic waves.This means that electromagnetic waves can travel not only through air and solid materials, but also through the vacuum of space.

Fun fact - The first oranges weren’t orange

The original oranges from Southeast Asia were a tangerine-pomelo hybrid, and they were actually green. In fact, oranges in warmer regions like Vietnam and Thailand still stay green through maturity.

3. How does the resistance of the light bulbs differ when the bulbs are cold and when the bulbs are hot? Why do you think this h
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

the hot bulb will have high resistance to the flow of current. While the cold bulb will have a low resistance to the flow of current.

Explanation:

A conductor that does not obey Ohm's law is described as non - ohmic. An example is a filament lamp. It glows as the current passes through it.

How does the resistance of the light bulbs differ when the bulbs are cold and when the bulbs are hot ?

The resistance of the light bulbs increase gradually as its temperature is increased.

So, the hot bulb will have high resistance to the flow of current. While the cold bulb will have a low resistance to the flow of current.

Because the resistance of an impure metal wire is greater than the resistance of a pure metal wire of the same dimension.

Does a race car driver need a faster reaction time then someone driving in a school zone explain your answer
rosijanka [135]
Answer:
Yes, the race car driver needs a faster reaction time than someone driving in a school zone.

Explanation.
For the sake of argument, let us consider
(i) a person driving at 35 mph in a school zone (as a normal driver);
(ii) a person driving at 60 mph in a school zone (as a racing driver).

Suppose a blind pedestrian crosses the road 0.1 miles (about 500 feet)  in front of the driver.
The time before the normal driver hits the pedestrian is
(0.1 /35)*3600 =  10.3 seconds.
The time before the racing driver hits the pedestrian is
(0.1/60)*3600 = 6 seconds.

Because a reaction time of 6 seconds may be insufficient to avoid hitting the pedestrian, the racing driver needs a faster reaction time than the normal driver.

In a light interference pattern, alternate dark and bright fringes are seen. Why are the bright fringes formed?
madreJ [45]
The light interference pattern is a series of light and dark stripes.

The bright stripes are areas where there is CONstructive interference.

The dark stripes are areas where there is DEstructive interference.
