What can waves be transmitted by? How do you know?

Physics

Morgarella [4.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

i don’t know what kind of waves you mean but if you’re talking about sound waves...

Explanation:

“Sound waves are transmitted through solids, liquids, and gases. Light waves are transmitted through transparent materials (may be clear or colored material such as filters) that allow most of the light that strikes them to pass through them. Only a small amount of light is reflected or absorbed.”

Suppose a sound wave and an electromagnetic wave have the same frequency. Which has the longer wavelength? 1. the electromagneti
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

1. the electromagnetic wave.

Explanation:

Mathematically,

wavelength = velocity ÷ frequency

A mechanical wave is a wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum. Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. A sound wave is an example of a mechanical wave. Sound waves are incapable of traveling through a vacuum.

Electromagnetic waves of different frequency are called by different names since they have different sources and effects on matter, increasing frequency decreases wavelength.

Sound waves (which obviously travel at the speed of sound) are much slower than electromagnetic waves (which travel at the speed of light.)  

Electromagnetic waves are much faster than sound waves and If the Velocity of the wave increases and the frequency is constant, the wavelength also increases.

What can you say about the magnitudes of the forces that the balloons exert on each other?
maxonik [38]

Answer:

F_G=G. \frac{m_1.m_2}{R^2} gravitational force

F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \times \frac{q_1.q_2}{R^2} electrostatic force

Explanation:

The forces that balloons may exert on each other can be gravitational pull due to the mass of the balloon membrane and the mass of the gas contained in each. This force is inversely proportional to the square of the radial distance between their center of masses.

The Mutual force of gravitational pull that they exert on each other can be given as:

F_G=G. \frac{m_1.m_2}{R^2}

where:

G= gravitational constant  =6.67\times 10^{-11} m^3.kg^{-1}.s^{-2}

m_1\ \&\ m_2 are the masses of individual balloons

R= the radial distance between the  center of masses of the balloons.

But when  there are charges on the balloons, the electrostatic force comes into act which is governed by Coulomb's law.

Given as:

F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \times \frac{q_1.q_2}{R^2}

where:

\rm \epsilon_0= permittivity\ of\ free\ space

q_1\ \&\ q_2 are the charges on the individual balloons

R = radial distance between the charges.
