Answer:

Electromagnetic Waves or EM waves

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are very unique in a manner that the do not require an medium to travel and thus they can travel through vacuum as well. The EM wave spectrum consists of various waves which are categorized as per their frequency. EM waves include Gamma rays, x-rays, Ultraviolet rays, Visible, Infrared rays, and radio waves. They travel at a speed of 300000 km/sec.

Feng and Isaac are riding on a merry-ground. Feng rides on a horse at the outer rim of the circular platform, twice as far from
kogti [31]

Answer: The question is incomplete or missing details. here is the remaining part of the question ;

1. impossible to determine

2. half of Isaac’s

3. the same as Isaac’s

4. twice Isaac’s

The angular speed of feng will be the same as that of Isaac. Hence the answer is option 3

Explanation:

Since we have been told that both feng and isaac are riding on a merry go round i.e in a circular motion, irrespective of how fast one ride above the other, the angular speed will be constant since they are riding on a merry go round, as such both feng and isaac will maintain equal angular speed, hence the angular speed of feng will be the same as that of Isaac.

natulia [17]

Archaeologists use radioactive decay of an isotope of the element <u>carbon.</u> Because it has a fairly short half-life, and is found in anything that was once living.

<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>

The act of producing radiation spontaneously is known as radioactivity. This is accomplished by an unstable atomic nucleus that want to give up some energy in order to move to a more stable form.

Archaeologists use radioactive decay of an isotope of the element <u>carbon.</u> Because it has a fairly short half-life, and is found in anything that was once living.

Hence, <u>carbon</u> is used the correct answer for the blank.

When an exothermic reaction releases thermal energy, this energy is usually_____.
saw5 [17]

Explanation:

A chemical reaction in which heat or energy is released is known as an exothermic reaction.

On the other hand, when two objects are placed together and heat flows from hotter object to colder object then this process is known as conduction. Therefore, energy is dissipated in conduction process.

Since energy released released goes into the atmosphere and is not used anywhere.

Thus, we can conclude that when an exothermic reaction releases thermal energy, this energy is usually not useable to do work and it is dissipated by conduction.

A polar bear swims 3.5 m/s, how long will it take the polar bear to swim 20 m?
ycow [4]

Given:

Speed = 3.5 m/s

Distance = 20 m

To find:

Time taken

Solution:

Speed = Distance/Time

so

Time = Distance/Speed

Substituting given values, we get

Time = 20/3.5

<em>Time = 5.714 seconds</em>

Three capacitors are connected as follows: 2.8 F capacitor and 5.57 F capacitor are connected in series, then that combination i
DedPeter [7]

ANSWER

8.99 F

EXPLANATION

We know that two capacitors of capacitances 2.8 F and 5.57 F are connected in series, while a third capacitor of capacitance 7.13 F is connected in parallel to that combination,

The capacitance works similarly to the resistance, except that when capacitors are connected in parallel, their capacitances add up, while when they are connected in series, the equivalent capacitance is like we were finding the equivalent resistance of resistors connected in parallel,

C_{eq}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{C_1}+\frac{1}{C_2}}+C_3=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2.8F}+\frac{1}{5.57F}}+7.13F\approx8.99F

Hence, the total capacitance is 8.99 F, rounded to the nearest hundredth.
