-Compressional waves
Physics
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Transverse

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves don't depend on the medium they travel through like a mechanical wave does, so they aren't mechanical. They don't oscillate (move back in forth) in the direction they travel either, ruling out compressional and longitudinal waves.

That leaves tranverse waves, the ones we're most used to, since they look very "wavelike," with smooth peaks and valleys. Electromagnic waves behave like these, oscillating in a plane perpendicular to the direction they're traveling in.

Tema [17]

Answer:

Voltage in the primary winding of the coil is 3.9 V

Explanation:

As we know by the principle of transformer we have

\frac{V_s}{V_p} = \frac{N_s}{N_p}

here we know that

V_s = 25 volts

N_s = 3200

N_p = 500

now we have

\frac{25}{V_p} = \frac{3200}{500}

V_p = 3.9 Volts
