Does the law of conservation of energy apply to waves?

Physics
1 answer:
dimulka [17.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy, as we have noted, is conserved, making it one of the most important physical quantities in nature. The law of conservation of energy can be stated as follows: Total energy is constant in any process. It may change in form or be transferred from one system to another, but the total remains the same.

If you were to travel from the equator to the higher latitudes (near either pole) on Saturn, the differential rotation would cau
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Saturn's differential rotation will cause the length of a day measures to be longer by 0.4 hours

Explanation:

Differential rotation occurs due to the difference in angular velocities of an object as we move along the latitude of the or as we move into different depth of the object, indicating the observed object is in a fluid form

Saturn made almost completely of gas and has differential motion given as follows

Rotation at the equator = 10 hours 14 minutes

Rotation at high altitude = 10 hours 38 minutes

Therefore;

The differential rotation = 10 hours 38 minutes - 10 hours 14 minutes

The differential rotation = 24 minutes = 24 minutes × 1 hour/(60 minutes) = 0.4 hours

The differential rotation = 0.4 hours

Therefore, the measured day at the higher altitude will be 0.4 longer than at the equator.

What is true for ALL of the examples of electromagnetic waves? A) They all move at the same speed in a vacuum. B) They all have
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

<em>A statement that is true for ALL of the examples of electromagnetic waves is that;</em>

A) They all move at the same speed in a vacuum

<u>The reason for qualifying 'in vacuum' is because EM waves of different frequencies often propagate at different speeds through material. Generally speaking, we say that light travels in waves, and all electromagnetic radiation travels at the same speed which is about 3.0 * 108 meters per second through a vacuum.</u>

What is the primary source of energy for earths weather systems
PIT_PIT [208]
I believe the sun is the primary source of energy for Earth's weather system. The sun is the primary energy source for Earth's climate system which is the first set of essential principles of climate sciences. Additionally, it is the primary source that drives all weather events, including precipitation, hurricane and tornadoes. The sun drives the hydrologic cycle, and makes life on Earth possible.
