this radio wave?

a)

It increases its speed.

b)

It doesn't affect the speed

8.

8.In almost every modern means of communication, waves are used to transmit information. Which statement does not describe a characteristic of waves that makes them well-suited for this purpose?

a)

Waves can move very quickly.

b)

Waves can hold large amounts of information.

c)

Waves only carry useful information.

d)

Waves do not need to permanently move matter.

9.

9.The wider the frequency range that a radio station is given, the more information it can transmit. With their wider frequency ranges, FM radio channels are often used to transmit music, which requires high-quality sound. AM radio channels are often used to transmit talk radio, which has lower-quality sound requirements. How might the sound quality be affected if AM radio waves were used to transmit music?

a)

The music would have a lower-quality sound.

b)

The music would have a higher-quality sound.

c)

The music would sound the same as it would if transmitted using FM radio waves.

d)

The music done have sound
