1.Melodramatic means to be overdramatic, this helps you understand the sentence more because it makes everything more clear on why she was crying and accusing her parents
2. a sharp pang of remorse basically stating that an intense hurt that had come on suddenly or in shorter terms a deep sadness and pain, this explains that Tom feels horrible because of how Rory is blaming him and punishing him and he is just starting to understand
3. Earnest is to show the results from showing or being sincere and in simpler words being focused on whatever your goal is, this shows that in the beginning Allen made jokes and seemed like a lighthearted kid who didn’t care about what was going on around him then one day he became more serious and started to care for his surroundings
4. Demeanor is how someone behaves and how someone presents themselves the sentence is saying that when something was off about the girl when you really knew her you could tell when something was wrong when she was upset or happy or depressed
5. Dismal means depressing or dreary, the team was sad, depressed, somber about the championship was no longer able to be won

Hey can someone me with my homework

Answer from: Quest

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
