What can electromagnetic waves travel through that mechanical waves can not travel through?

Physics
1 answer:
zlopas [31]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

I believe it is vacuum of space

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves differ from mechanical waves in that they do not require a medium to propagate. This means that electromagnetic waves can travel not only through air and solid materials, but also through the vacuum of space.

A wave traveling in water has a frequency of 250 Hz and a wavelength of 6.0m. What is the speed of the wave?
vladimir2022 [97]
Since you are looking for the speed, you need to rearrange the formula which is f = speed / wavelength. That should give you speed = f (wavelength.) All you need to do next is to substitute the value to the following equation.  speed = 250 Hz (6.0m) that should leave you with 1500 m/s which is very fast.

a swimmer experiences a total (absolute) pressure of 117,500 pa in a pool. how far below the surface are they located?
marta [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that the pressure can be calculated in the following way:

p = d·g·h

with d being the density of the water, g the gravitational acceleration and h the depth.

Also d of the water = 1000 kg/m^3 circa and g = 9.8 m/s^2 circa

117,500 Pa = 1000kg/m³ · 9.8m/s² · h

Therefore h = 11,9 m

a car initially at rest move with the constant accerates along straght line read after it's spread increase and finally related
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

32km per hour

Explanation:

Explanation:

In first case v = a t

==> a t = 40 km p h

Now distance covered S1 + S2 + S3

S1 = 1/2 a t^2 and S3 = 1/2 a t^2

But S2 = 3t * 40 = 120 t km

Hence total distance = at^2 + 120 t

Time taken (total) = t + 3t + t = 5 t

Hence average speed = at^2 + 120 t / 5 t

Cancelling t we have at + 120 / 5 = 40 + 120 / 5 = 160/5 = 32 km per hour

Imagine that asteroid A that has an escape velocity of 50 m/s. If asteroid B has twice the mass and twice the radius, it would h
padilas [110]

Answer:

The same as the escape velocity of asteorid A (50m/s)

Explanation:

The escape velocity is described as follows:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}

where G is the universal gravitational constant, M is the mass of the asteroid and R is the radius

and since the scape velocity is 50m/s:

50m/s=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}

Now, if the astroid B has twice mass and twice the radius, we have that tha mass is: 2M

and the radius is: 2R

inserting these values into the formula for escape velocity:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2G(2M)}{2R} } =\sqrt{\frac{4GM}{2R} } =\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }

and we have found that 50m/s=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}, so the two asteroids have the same escape velocity.

We found that the expression for escape velocity remains the same as for asteroid A, this because both quantities (radius and mass) doubled, so it does not affect the equation.

The answer is

Asteroid B would have an escape velocity the same as the escape velocity of asteroid A
