4 0

Answer:

So 0 dB does not mean no sound, it means a sound level where the sound pressure is equal to that of the reference level. This is a small pressure, but not zero. It is also possible to have negative sound levels: - 20 dB would mean a sound with pressure 10 times smaller than the reference pressure, i.e. 2 μPa.

Which of the following statements are true concerning electromagnetic radiation fields?Select all that apply.a.) The electric an

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

a.) The electric and magnetic fields are in phase with each other as they propagate through space.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave in which magnetic field and electric field both induces each other as both changes with time

Here magnetic field induces electric field and similarly magnetic field induces electric field.

As we know that this is a transverse wave so here magnetic field and electric field lies in perpendicular planes. but they both propagate in same direction in such a wave that both fields reaches their maximum position and minimum positions simultaneously

So the correct answer is

a.) The electric and magnetic fields are in phase with each other as they propagate through space.

Two identical balls move directly toward each other with equal speeds. how will the balls move if they collide and stick togethe

Citrus2011 [14]

The momentum of both the identical balls would eventually be transferred to one another when it comes to a point wherein they will collide. In addition, the phenomenon is called an elastic collision wherein both the momentum and energy of the system would considered to be conserved.
