ed with this wave points vertically up. The direction of the electric field vector of this wave options:
vertical and pointing down.
vertical and pointing up.
horizontal and pointing north.

Answer:

Horizontal and pointing south.

Explanation:

The Poynting vector points in the direction of propagation (if the wave is a sinusoidal linearly polarized plane wave of fixed frequency, as it is in our case), and it's given by (all vectors):

S=E\times H

where H points in the same direction as B, the magnetic field. This means that E must point south, because the vectorial product of a vector pointing south by a vector pointing up gives a vector pointing west. This can be deduced by the right-hand rule: if our index finger is E and our middle finger is H, then the thumb is S.

A boy and a girl are on a spinning merry-go-round. The boy is at a radial distance of 1.2 m from the central axis; the girl is a
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

E) True. The girl has a larger tangential acceleration than the boy.

Explanation:

In this exercise they do not ask us to say which statement is correct, for this we propose the solution to the problem.

Angular and linear quantities are related

          v = w r

          a = α r

the boy's radius is r₁ = 1.2m the girl's radius is r₂ = 1.8m

as the merry-go-round rotates at a constant angular velocity this is the same for both, but the tangential velocity is different

          v₁ = w 1,2 (boy)

          v₂ = w 1.8 (girl)

whereby

          v₂> v₁

reviewing the claims we have

          a₁ = α 1,2

          a₂ = α 1.8

          a₂> a₁

A) False. Tangential velocity is different from zero

B) False angular acceleration is the same for both

C) False. It is the opposite, according to the previous analysis

D) False. Angular acceleration is equal

E) True. You agree with the analysis above,

What are the comparisons and contrast of adaptation and natural selection? ASAP!!!!!!
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Natural selection is a mechanism, or cause, of evolution.

Explanation:

Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that make an organism better suited to its environment. Heritable variation comes from random mutations.

Asbestos would most likely be found where in a house?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Asbestos would most likely be found <u>around pipes</u> in a house.

Asbestos is nan organic naturally occurring mineral.

Its composition is similar to thin fibers like crystals of of silicate mineral.

The fibers of Asbestos are so thin and microscopic that they liberate into the atmosphere due to erosion and other processes.

These tiny particles are considered harmful for health as they are carcinogenic in nature and causes mesothelioma.

Its melting point is between 400 to 1,040 °C and is available in blue, green, grey white and yellow color.
