How are sound waves similar to light waves?

Physics

arlik [135]3 years ago

Answer:

When light moves from one medium (like air) to another medium (like water) it will change directions. This is a "wave-like" behavior and is called refraction. In this way light behaves like other waves such as sound waves. The speed of the light wave also changes when it moves from medium to medium.

Answer:

Sound and light are similar in that both are forms of energy that travel in waves.

Explanation:

They both have properties of wavelength, freqency and amplitude. ... Sound can only travel through a medium (substance) while light can travel through empty space. Sound is a form of mechanical energy caused by vibrations of matter.

Estimate under what set of conditions it is possible, despite the spherical shape of the working electrode, to use linear diffus
goldfiish [28.3K]

When the experimental measurements diverge at very low values of the voltages. When the ratio of current to saturated current is very small. That is, i/I less than or equal to 1/100. When there is a finite current at Voltage

V = 0

Diffusion will have influence on current - voltage curve in the working electrode which is ionization detector.

The estimation under set of conditions that is possible, despite the spherical shape of the working electrode, to use linear diffusion equations to theoretically predict the current vs voltage curve expected in this experiment will be:

  • When the experimental measurements diverge at very low values of the voltages
  • when the ratio of current to saturated current is very small. That is, i/I less than or equal to 1/100
  • When there is a finite current at Voltage V = 0

Where

i = electric current

I = saturated current

V = voltage supplied

The curve expected will therefore give exponential curve from positive to negative domain because of the diffusion of ions from different directions

Why does a compass give unreliable readings when used near electrical appliances
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the compass uses a magnetic field, if anything else magnetic is near it, the compass will start acting up. Making it unreliable so keep magnets away!

A wave has a wavelength of 8 mm and a frequency of 14 Hertz what is its speed?
iren [92.7K]
To find the speed you multiply the wavelength and the frequency together.

wavelength = 8mm = 8x10^{-3} m = 0.008 m
frequency = 14 Hz

speed = 0.008m * 14 Hz = 0.112 m/s

How do simple machines make work easier?
castortr0y [4]
 work is defined as force acting on an object in the direction of motion, a machine makes work easier to perform by accomplishing one or more of the following functions: transferring a force from one place to another, changing the direction of a force, increasing the magnitude of a force, or increasing the distance or speed of a force
<span>D. They increase the distance over which a force is applied.</span>
