How is the medium of a wave and transmit of a wave similar and different?

Physics
1 answer:
zepelin [54]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Sound and light are similar in that both are forms of energy that travel in waves. They both have properties of wavelength, freqency and amplitude. Here are some differences: Sound can only travel through a medium (substance) while light can travel through empty space.

the magnitude of the magnetic field at point p for a certain electromagnetic wave is 2.21. What is the magnitude of the elctic f
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

6.63\times 10^8\ N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

The magnitude of magnetic field, B = 2.21

We need to find the magnitude of the electric field. Let it is E. So,

\dfrac{E}{B}=c\\\\E=Bc

Put all the values,

E=2.21\times 3\times 10^8\\\\=6.63\times 10^8\ N/C

So, the magnitude of the electric field is equal to 6.63\times 10^8\ N/C.

In a thunderstorm at 20.0°C, Karen sees a bolt of lightning and hears the thunderclap 3.00 s later. How far from Karen did the l
Minchanka [31]
-- The speed of light in air is very close to 3 x 10⁸ m/s.
Whatever the actual number is, it's equivalent to roughly
7 times around the Earth in 1 second.  So for this kind of
problem, you can assume that we see things at the same time
that they happen; don't bother worrying about how long it takes
for the light to reach you.

-- For sound, it's a different story.  Sound in air only travels at
about 340 m/s.  It takes sound almost 5 seconds to go 1 mile.

-- Now, the lightning and thunder happen at the same time.
The light travels to you at the speed of light, so you see the
lightning pretty much when it happens.  But the sound of the
thunder comes poking along at 340 m/s, and arrives AFTER
the sight of the lightning.

The length of time between the sight and the sound is about
99.9999% the result of the time it takes the sound to reach you.

If the thunder arrived at you 3 seconds after the light did, then
the sound traveled
        
                     (340 m/s) x (3 s) =  1,020 meters .
                                           
(about 0.63 of a mile)

(If you're worried about ignoring the time it takes
for the light to reach you ...

  It takes light  0.0000034 second to cover the same 1,020 meters,

so including it in the calculation would not change the answer.)

What principle is responsible for alternating light and dark bands when light passes through two or more narrow slits? What prin
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Interference

Explanation:

When two waves of same frequency and constant phase difference super impose at a point on the screen then due to their superposition we will get different intensity of light at different positions of the screen

This phenomenon of redistribution of energy is known as interference of light.

So at the position of screen where the light intensity is maximum on the screen is known as constructive interference while the positions on the screen where it will get minimum intensity on the screen is known as destructive interference of the light

So correct answer would be

Interference
