Electromagnetic waves dont carry any matter what do they carry?
Electromagnetic waves carry energy, not matter.
How many waves crash into a shoreline a day?
100000's
What are the two classifications of waves?
CLASSIFICATION OF WAVESWaves may be classified in two:According to nature:1. Electromagnetic Wave2. Mechanical WaveAccording to direction of the propagation1. Transverse Wave2. Longitudinal Wave
What are some examples of empirical evidence?
Empiricism states that science should rely on observation, experience, and experimentation for learning new concepts. Conducting research on why the ocean produces waves is an example of empiricism.
What is skinhead?
Skinhead did start in the UK and was influenced by Jamaican ska music in the mind 1960s. The skinhead scene evolved from the 1960s Mod scene and has seen a number of waves since this time. The scene is commonly linked to minority groups that often contradict each other. As of 2013 you have right wing skinheads, Left wing skinheads even Gay skinheads. The 3 groups mentioned have no links to the traditional skinhead movement and use the skinhead image to publicise their own agendas. Traditional skinheads in The UK are associated with Ska music whilst in Australia a Traditional skinhead might listen to both Ska and Oi music and I believe this to be case in most countries.
What is the definition of radio waves?
The number of cycles a wave is doing per second.
What do you call the number of waves that pass by a given point in one second?
frequency, the unit is Hz, measured as cycles/second or waves/second
Which property describes the number of waves that move past a point each second?
Frequency APEX
How many wavelengths pass by you in one second?
The number of waves that pass a certain point per second is called the FREQUENCY. The unit is the hertz (cycles per second).
What term refers to the number of waves passing a specific point in a given amount of time?
The number of waves that pass a fixed point in a fixed amount of time is known as the "frequency".=====is called the Frequency of the waves (located on page 10 of the Penn Foster - Sound Study Guide)=====The number of waves that pass a given point per second is measured in units of Hertz (Hz). Hertz is a unit for cycles per second.The number of cycles that a wave completes in 'S' seconds is 'S' times its 'frequency'.
How do you find out how many waves are produced in 5 minutes with a frequency of 2 Hz?
Hz = cycles/second. Therefore, at 2Hz, you're generating two complete cycles (or what I believe you refer to as waves) every second. So 2 cycles x 60 seconds = 120 cycles per minute. 120 cycles x 5 minutes = 600 cycles.
What is the measure of the number of waves that pass a point?
I don't think there is a special name for that. However, the number of wave cycles that pass per second or some other time unit is called frequency. The international unit for frequency is cycles / second, which has the special name hertz (Hz).
If Garrett counts the number of waves that reach the shore over a 10 second period what property of the waves is he measuring?
He is measuring the frequency of the wave. To get his answer he must divide his count by 10 to give cycles per second.
What is the number of complete waves or complete cycles of a wave?
waves per unit time is called "frequency"
What is meant by the frequency of a wave what is the unit?
The frequency of a wave is the number of complete waves that pass a fixed point in one second. The unit is "Hertz" or "Cycles". The dimension is "per second". (Reciprocal time.)
The frequency of waves is given in what?
Cycles per second is the correct unit for mechanical waves. Hertz (Hz) is the correct unit for electromagnetic waves like light, radio, and microwaves. Most people use Hertz for everything, but that is not correct usage.
A certain color of light has a frequency of 650000000000000 cycles per second How many waves of this light pass by in one second?
650,000
