Answer:

The speed of the given electromagnetic wave is 3 x 10⁸ m/s.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic wave is a type of energy that is commonly known as light energy. The speed of light in air is about 3 x 10⁸ meters per second (m/s).

<u>All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed</u> which is equal to speed of light, approximately 3 x 10⁸ meters per second (m/s) through a vacuum or air.

Therefore, the speed of the given electromagnetic wave is 3 x 10⁸ m/s.

The answer is B.
You can rule C out because divergent means moving away. Rule out A because there is an oceanic and continental plate, not 2 of the same type. Rule D out for the same reason.

Explanation:

Matter undergoes two types of changes: physical changes and chemical changes.

A physical change is one that affects only the physical properties of a substance such as colour, size, shape, etc., and in which no new substances are formed. Physical changes are easily reversible.

Chemical changes are changes which affect the chemical characteristics and properties of a substance such as reactivity, acidity, basicity, etc., resulting in the formation of new substances.

The following changes below are categorized as either physical or chemical changes based on which of the properties of the substance is affected and whether new substances result or not.

Elena held a rock weighing 1 N in her hand. The rock has no velocity. <br> KE________?

nignag [31]

KE = 0

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Energy is the ability to do work

Energy because its motion is expressed as Kinetic energy (KE) which can be formulated as:

$\large{\boxed{\bold{KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2}}}$

So for two objects that have the same speed, the greater the mass of the object, the greater the kinetic energy

The stone in hand is in a motionless state (at rest) so that its velocity (v) = 0, so it has no kinetic energy

But this stone can have <em>potential energy that is gained due to its height</em>

leva [86]

Answer:

A) carbon - 2

B) cobalt - 3

C) sulfur - 2

D) fluorine - 1

E) titanium - 2

F) germanium - 2

Explanation:

Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity:-

Firstly, every orbital which is present in the sublevel is singly occupied and then the orbital is doubly occupied.

(A) Carbon.
