the answer is
<span>4. The entropy of the universe is increasing. </span>
Answer:
At the molecular level, materials are held together by bonds, which act like springs for small displacements from the equilibrium spacing between neighboring atoms. Push the atoms close, the bond pushes back to keep them apart. Pull them apart, the bond pulls the atoms closer. For those small displacements, it acts like a spring
The speed of the wave will be related to the stiffness of of those springs - you compress the material - how quickly do all of those little springs rebound and push their neighboring atoms away, sending that wave of compression through the material.

Answer:
1) f= 8.6 GHz
2) t= 0.2 ms
Explanation:
1)
- Since microwaves are electromagnetic waves, they move at the same speed as the light in vacuum, i.e. 3*10⁸ m/s.
- There exists a fixed relationship between the frequency (f) , the wavelength (λ) and the propagation speed in any wave, as follows:

- Replacing by the givens, and solving for f, we get:

⇒ f = 8.6 Ghz (with two significative figures)
2)
- Assuming that the microwaves travel at a constant speed in a straight line (behaving like rays) , we can apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:
where v= c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s
d= distance between mountaintops = 52 km = 52*10³ m

⇒ t = 0.2 ms (with two significative figures)
