Those waves carry an amount of energy that can be measured. The energy in a wave is determined by two variables. One is amplitude, which is the distance from the rest position of a wave to the top or bottom. Large amplitude waves contain more energy. Wave A has a greater intensity and transfers more energy. Wave B has a greater intensity and transfers more energy. Waves that require matter to transfer energy are mechanical waves. The matter through which a mechanical wave travels is called a medium. A mechanical wave travels as energy is transferred from particle to particle in the medium. There are two kinds of mechanical waves. The greater the waves amplitude the greater the waves energy. ... A wavelength will travel only as long as it has energy to carry. Gamma rays
Gamma rays have the highest energies, the shortest wavelengths, and the highest frequencies. Radio waves, on the other hand, have the lowest energies, longest wavelengths, and lowest frequencies of any type of EM radiation. Electromagnetic waves cause oscillations in electrical and magnetic fields. It is important to remember that all waves transfer energy but they do not transfer matter . For example, if a ball is placed on the surface of a pond when ripples move across it, the ball will move up and down but not outwards with the wave.

Which cup has more thermal energy?
dybincka [34]

<em>Question: </em><em>Which cup has more thermal energy?</em>

<em>                   A. 2 liter cup of milk</em>

<em>                   B. 1 liter cup of milk</em>

<em>Answer: A. 2 liter cup of milk</em>

<em />

<em>Explanation:</em>

We have milk in both of the containers. The milk in both containers is the same temperature, so we will have to measure the amount of molecules. The amount of molecules makes it warmer, and if it is warmer, that is more energy. 2 liters have more thermal energy than 1 liter, because it has more molecules.

Our answer is 2 liter cup of milk.

Consider a possible triatomic molecule containing a nitrogen, oxygen, and fluorine atoms for the following questions.
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

a) nitrogen

b) nitrogen =5

Oxygen = 6

Fluorine =7

Explanation:

Usually, if we have two or more elements in a compound, the central atom in the compound is the atom having the least value of electro negativity.

If we consider fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen; nitrogen is the least electronegative of the trio hence it should be the central atom of the triatomic molecule.

The number of valence electrons on the valence shell of each atom is shown below;

nitrogen =5

Oxygen = 6

Fluorine =7

If a nitrogen atom has a -3 net charge, how many electrons does it have?
malfutka [58]

Answer:

If the nitrogen atom is a neutral atom, it will have seven electrons orbiting the nucleus of the atom. This is because neutral atoms get their neutral...

In a redox reaction, one of the reactants must release
Leviafan [203]
Redox reaction is the reduction and oxidation reaction. It is a chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons. It can mean loss of oxygen (oxidation) or gain of electrons (reduction). Oxydation is the process of where a sustance loses electrons, gains an oxygen atom/s, loses a hydrogen atom/s.  reduction is the opposite.
In a redox reaction, one of the reactants must release electrons.
