Electromagnetic radiation is one of many ways as energy travels through space.
 As you may already know, a wave has a valley (lowest point) and a ridge (highest point). The vertical distance between the tip of the crest and the central axis of the wave is known as amplitude. This is the property associated with the brightness, or intensity, of the wave. The horizontal distance between two consecutive crests or valleys of the wave is known as wavelength

Which of the following is/are true? Electromagnetic waves are created by accelerating charges. Electromagnetic waves are transve
Vikki [24]

Answer:

All of the above are true.

Explanation:

(a). true  

whenever  charge particle  move back and froth from its mean position then it will produce oscillating electric and magnetic fields, . so an em wave can be obtain by accelerating charge

(b). true

the electric field and the magnetic field have vibrations in the perpendicular direction along  the motion of the wave  so electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave. therefore, the EM wave is a Transverse wave

(c) true .

The Electromagnetic wave consists of the two mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields  and also both fields are  perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.

(d) true .

An electromagnetic wave  carry  energy through  vacuum with a speed   of 3 \times 10^8 m/s  

   so , all of the above are true.

Explain how friction keeps a nail in place in a block of wood. If you try pull out the nail which way does friction act?
Bess [88]

Answer:

Opposite to the direction that you are pulling

Explanation:

Static friction acts in the opposite direction to the acceleration.

Kinetic friction acts in the opposite direction to the velocity.

The gravitational force strength on the moon is 1.63N/Kg if the rock on the moon weighs 200N how much does the same rock weigh o
FromTheMoon [43]

m = Q(on moon) * G(on moon) = 200N * 1.63N/kg = 326kg

Q(Earth)= g * m = 10m/s2 * 326kg = 3260N

The table below lists the speed that sound travels through four different materials.One of these materials is a gas, two are liq
Firdavs [7]

In order to find the solid, you would want the object in which sound travels the fastest

In this case, since in object C, the speed of sound is the fastest, it is the most likely to be a solid

So object C is most likely to be a solid
