How do you know the speed of an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum?

Physics
1 answer:
ycow [4]3 years ago

Electromagnetic waves need no matter to travel - they can travel through empty space (a vacuum). In a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves travel at approximately 3 x 108 m/s - which is the fastest speed possible. ...
Light traveling value through an optical Fibre is, 2 x 108 m/s. Hope that helps.

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

a)  v=4.0m/s

b)  B=2.958T

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Wire Length l=10cm=>0.10m

Resistance R=0.35

Force F=1.0N

Power P=4.0W

a)

Generally the equation for Power is mathematically given by

P=Fv

Therefore

v=\frac{P}{F}

v=\frac{4.0}{1.0}

v=4.0m/s

b)

Generally the equation for Magnetic Field is mathematically given by

B=\frac{\sqrt{PR}}{vl}

B=\frac{\sqrt{4*0.35}}{4*0.10}

B=2.958T

What are dot diagrams in Physical Science?​
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

If you mean Lewis dot diagrams, aka electron-dot diagrams, then these are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule.

. If measurements of a gas are 75L and 300 kilopascals and then the gas is measured a second time and found to be 50L, describe
julia-pushkina [17]
By Boyle's law:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

300*75 = P<span>₂*50

</span>P<span>₂*50= 300*75
</span>
P<span>₂ = 300*75/50 = 450
</span>
P<span>₂ = 450 kiloPascals.

The pressure has increased as a result of compression of gas.

Boyle's Law supports this observation.</span>

Describe at least two ways that electromagnet force and weak nuclear forces are alike and two ways that they are different.
ruslelena [56]

Different: The weak nuclear force is responsible for radioactive decay within an atom of a substance, while the electromagnetic force causes electrostatic force between charged particles.


Different: The weak force has a very small range of effectiveness (where the force can be felt) while the electromagnetic force has an infinite range.


Same: Both forces act within an nucleus, or on a nuclear level.


Same: The weak nuclear force is mediated by charged particles called bosons, and the electrostatic force is only present within charged objects


The last one may be a bit of a stretch but I hope this helped a bit!
