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.
Transverse and compressional (longitudinal) waves are similar because have a frequency (and therefore a period), and a wavelength. that can be calculated. Waves come in either two major categories: electromagnetic or mechanical. Electromagnetic waves are light waves. They are energized particles that travel very quickly. They do not need a medium to travel, which means that they can travel through outer space where there is no matter. Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium (matter) to travel. These waves are considered to have two major shapes: transverse and compressional. For waves we can peform calculations using two equations: Frequency is the inverse of the time it takes for one cycle of the wave to occur.
