What is 980200000000000 in scientific notation?
95,000,000,000km/ph/lt/yrs is the speed of light. It takes light that long for light to travel to earth in about 1 light year. 95,000,000,000km/ph/lt/yrs is the speed of light. It takes light that long for light to travel to earth in about 1 light year.
What type of wave does not need a medium to travel through?
It is electromagnetic radiation that needs no medium to travel in. Gamma rays, light and radio waves, all forms of electromagnetic radiation, can travel through the vacuum of space very well. In fact, they prefer it.
Does radiation travel any direction?
Yes. Radiation travels in all directions, however, it can be collimated, so as to be coerced into traveling in one direction, but that is not a process of the emitting nuclide.
How is heat transferred through empty space?
Light energy, like from the sun.
What is transfer of energy through space?
An electromagnetic wave is a oscillation through 2 fields, electrical and magnetic fields of the space the wave is travelling through. These oscillations are at right angles to each other. Electromagnetic waves are carried by miniscule particles of energy called photons, Light itself is one of the forms of electromagnetic waves and all EM waves travel at the speed of light 3x10^8 ms or 300 000 000 metres per second. Photons have 0 mass. Nothing with mass can truly have a higher velocity then the speed of light or EM radiation. As they are carried by photons they need no medium to travel through and can therefore travel through space/a vacuum.
What is the scientific notation for the number of kilometers light will travel in 60 seconds?
Speed of light = 17,987,547.48 km per minute:17,987,547.48 km/min in Scientific Notation = 1.798754748 x 107 km/min
How does light travel in light years?
Ypu have to use scientific notation to the 10th power
How far does light travel in 20 seconds using scientific notation?
In a vacuum, light travels about 3,725,648 miles every 20 seconds. In scientific notation this distance is expressed as: 3.725648 x 106 miles per 20 seconds.
If a probe travels 4000km per hour for 365 days how far did it travel in scientific notation?
3.504 × 10^7 km
Can radiation travel though space?
All types of radiation can travel through space.
Can radiation travel through a vacuum?
Yeah, radiation can travel in vacuum and a practical example of it is the radiation of sun coming to earth and traveling through space.
Which can travel through empty space out of insulator convection electomagnetic conduction or radiation?
Radiation can travel through empty space. The radiation in question is electromagnetic waves.
Which of these can radiation travel through?
conductors According to the A+ cirriculum it' actually space. Radiation can travel through a space. Jesus loves you!:)
Can Radiation travel by wind?
yes
Is radiation a transverse wave?
Yes, electromagnetic radiation does travel as a transverse wave
When atoms are moved by radiation in what direction do they move?
radiation can travel through air
Electromagnetic radiation is a transverse wave?
Yes, electromagnetic radiation does travel as a transverse wave
