Because of nickel's slow rate of oxidation at room temperature, it is considered corrosion-resistant. Historically, this has led to its use for plating metals such as iron and brass, coating chemistry equipment, and manufacturing certain alloys that retain a high silvery polish, such as German silver.
Which characteristic are shared by Electromagnetic and mechanical waves? Check ALL that apply. A.both have a crest and a trough B.both move due to particles bumping into each other C.both can move through matter D.both can occur as a result of a disturbance E. Both are formed by charged particles.
They can travel fast or slow. Sound waves, light waves, X-rays, microwaves, and ocean waves are but a few examples. All waves, however, share certain basic characteristics. All waves have amplitude, wavelength, and frequency. 1  In order to understand these characteristics of waves, it may help you to represent a wave as a drawing on a graph.
