Answer:

b. able to travel through a vacuum.

Explanation:

The most distinguishing factor of an electromagnetic waves is that they are able to travel through a vacuum.

These waves do not require materials in a medium for propagation.

  • Electromagnetic waves are formed by the propagation of the electric and magnetic fields.
  • They vibrate at an angle of 90° .
  • They are unlike like mechanical waves that requires that requires materials in medium for their propagation.

Predict whether the changes in enthalpy, entropy, and free energy will be positive or negative for the melting of ice, and expla
BlackZzzverrR [31]
  <span>Melting of ice is an endothermic process, meaning that energy is absorbed. When ice spontaneously melts, ΔH (change in enthalpy) is "positive". ΔS (entropy change) is also positive, because, becoming a liquid, water molecules lose their fixed position in the ice crystal, and become more disorganized. ΔG (free energy of reaction) is negative when a reaction proceeds spontaneously, as it happens in this case. Ice spontaneously melts at temperatures higher than 0°C. However, liquid water also spontaneously freezes at temperatures below 0°C. Therefore the temperature is instrumental in determining which "melting" of ice, or "freezing" of water becomes spontaneous. The whole process is summarized in the Gibbs free energy equation: 
ΔG = ΔH – TΔS</span>

A swimmer is capable of swimming 0.42 m/s in still water. part a if she aims her body directly across a 66-m-wide river whose cu
satela [25.4K]
<span>If the swimmer is swimming perpendicular to the current, it will take her 66m / 0.42 m/s = 157.14 seconds to cross the river. At the same time, the current will be taking her downstream at a rate of 0.32 m/s. So, when she reaches the opposite bank, her total downstream distance traveled will have been 0.32*157.14 = 50.28 meters.</span>

Describe the main reason why the scientific community did not accept Alfred wegener idea of continental drift?
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>I think they were also too skeptic to believe the continent did move or pull apart, even today do you believe that the continents broke from one big flat plate, and that they pulled apart? They also wonder what large force would be responsible for the movement.

It was much later that evidences from plant and animal features that had similarity from two different planets came up that scientists began accepting the idea of continental drift.
And similar rock strata from two different opposite continents, showed similar rock strata.
All these evidences came up much later after Alfred Wengener.

So Alfred Wengener was honored Posthumously</span>
