What do sound waves and infrared waves have in common, and what makes them different?

  1. both carry energy through space, but sound waves are mechanical and infrared waves are electromagnetic.
  2. both can transfer energy through matter, but sound waves travel through air but infrared travel through space.
  3. both can transfer energy through matter, but sound waves can be heard and infrared waves can be seen.
  4. both carry energy through space, but sound waves require matter to pass through and infrared waves do not.

Sound in air can best be described as which of the following types of waves?

(a) Longitudinal

(b) Transverse

(c) Torsional

(d) Electromagnetic

(e) Polarized

In Fig. 1, the paraboloid dish is emitting polarized radiowaves. The meter is measuring the intensity of waves that passthrough the grating. In Fig. 1(a), the meter is reading zero; inFig. 1(b), the meter is reading near maximum.

What is the polarization angle of the incident radio waves in Fig.1 relative to the horizontal? Explain in detail how you determinedit. (Remember that radio waves are electromagnetic waves.)

Be sure your answer includes the relevant properties of waves ingeneral, and electromagnetic waves in particular.
