What characteristic of light is based on the fact that light waves do not need matter to transmit energy?
The characteristic of light based on the fact that light waves do not need matter to transmit energy is its ability to travel through a vacuum. Light can propagate in empty space, unlike sound waves which require a medium such as air to transmit energy.
What characteristic proves that light is longitudinal wave?
Light is actually a transverse wave, not a longitudinal wave. This is evidenced by the fact that light waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of their propagation. Longitudinal waves, on the other hand, oscillate parallel to the direction of their propagation.
Does sound waves cause objects to vibrate?
Sound waves are detected by the fact that the waves can cause objects to vibrate. The vibrations from the sound waves must be converted into a signal and then amplified and processed. Your ear and a microphone are common detectors of sound.
Why are sound waves considered mechanical waves instead of electromagnetic waves, and can you explain the reasoning behind this classification?
Sound waves are considered mechanical waves because they require a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. This is in contrast to electromagnetic waves, like light or radio waves, which can travel through a vacuum. The classification is based on the fact that mechanical waves transfer energy through the vibration of particles in the medium, while electromagnetic waves do not require a medium and instead consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields.
Which phenomena supports the fact that light waves are smaller than sound?
The phenomenon of diffraction, where waves bend around obstacles, is stronger for light waves than sound waves due to their smaller wavelength. This can be observed, for example, in the ability of light to create sharp shadows, while sound waves diffract around corners and obstacles, causing them to spread out more.
What are waves caused by (transverse waves and so on)?
P-waves and S-waves. P waves are known as Primary waves as they have a high velocity and so are recorded at seismometer stations before Secondary or S-waves. P waves may also be known as pressure waves as they are in fact compression or longitudinal waves. S-waves may also be known as shear waves as they are transverse waves.
Are surface waves the fastest seismic waves?
No, they are in fact the slowest! The fastest seismic waves are P-waves.
What are the advantages of injection compression molding?
Not high in fact very low
What are some examples of compressional waves?
Mechanical waves are waves that need a medium to go through. Some examples are ocean waves, seismic waves, and sound waves. Also when a slinky moves back and forth or at right angles it is like a wave.
Why would number 2 and 3 plugs not be firing if you have good compression good fuel pressure new plugs wires cap and rotor and valves are not cracked or loose on a 1994 350 in a Chevy suburban?
You wouldn't have good compression if the valves were damaged or not seating. If they are not firing as in no spark at all, and the fact that these cylinders are on opposite sides of the engine I would say it has to be the cap. Inspect the inside and the outside of the cap very thoroughtly looking for any blackish lines to confirm this or take it back to the parts store and tell them it is defective is my reccomendation.
Is it safe for diabetics to wear compression shorts?
It is safe for diabetics to wear compression shorts. In fact, compression shorts may even help blood flow for a diabetic. It certainly isn't going to hurt them.
Are there other waves besides electromagnetic and mechanical?
Quantifying the number of types of waves in fact reduces to the problem of quantifying the number of forces. In fact, mechanical waves are a subset of electromagnetic waves, so there are in fact three other types of waves on top of electromagnetic, for the three other fundamental forces: strong nuclear, weak nuclear, gravitational. Mechanical movement can be caused by any of the four fundamental forces. *Short answer: no. By the way, mechanical waves require a medium, where EM waves do not. They are the only, two, separate types of waves.
What are advantages of compression?
The biggest advantage of compression is the fact that more data and other files can fit on smaller amounts of storage. A disadvantage is the quality lost when compressing.
What are the three types of waves caused by an earthquake?
P-waves and S-waves. P waves are known as Primary waves as they have a high velocity and so are recorded at seismometer stations before Secondary or S-waves. P waves may also be known as pressure waves as they are in fact compression or longitudinal waves. S-waves may also be known as shear waves as they are transverse waves.
Is there a paint or force field that can nulify sound waves?
true fact
What are the causes of compressibility?
There is no harm in wearing the compression sleeves. In fact they help swollen arms and better blood transfer around the bodies arm. A person should wear compression sleeves with no worries.
What can transfer energy without a medium?
Electromagnetic waves, however, in fact the medium for the transmission of electromagnet waves is space, so there really is a medium.
