When you listen to the radio, watch TV, or cook food in a microwave, you are making use of properties of electromagnetic waves. Which statement about electromagnetic waves is false?

A. White light is the absence of all color.
B. Higher-frequency electromagnetic waves have more energy.
C. The sun radiates several different types of electromagnetic energy.
D. The frequency of an electromagnetic wave is related to its wavelength.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. White light is the absence of all color.

Explanation:

It is false that white light is the absence of all color. In fact, white light is the presence of all colors in the spectrum.

Electromagnetic waves are waves that do not require any material medium for propagation. It is the interaction of electric and magnetic fields.

The higher frequency electromagnetic waves like the gamma-rays and x-rays have more energy. The sun furnishes the universe with electromagnetic energy. The higher the wavelength, the lesser the energy of the electromagnetic radiation.

Suppose Alex is navigating using a compass. She starts walking at an angle of 60° north of east and walks a total of 100 m. How far north is she from the starting point? How far east?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]50\:\mathrm{m\: North}\\50\sqrt{3}\:\mathrm{m\: East}[/tex]

Explanation:

We can create a 30-60-90 triangle. The distance she walked is then the hypotenuse of the triangle, and using 30-60-90 triangle rules, we have the following:

The North leg is opposite to the [tex]30^{\circ}[/tex] angle. Therefore, if we call this distance [tex]y_N[/tex], we have the following:

[tex]\sin 30^{\circ}=\frac{y_N}{100},\\\frac{1}{2}=\frac{y_N}{100},\\y_N=\fbox{$50\:\mathrm{m}$}[/tex].

The East leg is opposite to the [tex]60^{\circ}\\[/tex] angle. If we call this distance [tex]x_E[/tex], we have:

[tex]\sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{x_E}{100},\\\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{x_E}{100},\\x_E=\fbox{$50\sqrt{3}\:\mathrm{m}$}[/tex].

Hydrogen sulfide, H2S, and hydrogen chloride, HCl, are both gases at temperatures above –50 °C.
Which gas will diffuse most rapidly at the temperature given?
A hydrogen chloride at –40°C
B hydrogen chloride at –20°C
C hydrogen sulfide at –40°C
D hydrogen sulfide at –20°C

could someone please explain this

Answers

Explanation:

A gas at higher temperature is able to gain more heat from the environment/surroundings and has more kinetic energy to diffuse at a faster rate.

Hence a temperature at -20°C is more ideal.

Molar mass of H2S = 34.07g/mol

Molar mass of HCl = 36.45g/mol

Since H2S has a smaller molar mass, the same number of moles of H2S gas will diffuse faster as compared to the same number of moles of HCl gas.

Hence the answer is Hydrogen sulfide at -20°C. (D)

Imagine you are dating a mineral sample that contains one-eighth of its original parent isotope. What is the
absolute age of the sample if the half-life of the parent isotope is 15 years?
A. 1.875 years
B. 23 years
C. 45 years
D. 120 years

Answers

i believe the answer is A

The age of the sample can be determined using the first order equation of the nuclear decay. The age of the parent isotope here is 45 years.

What is half life ?

Unstable radioactive nuclei undergo nuclear decay to produce more stable nuclei with more life time. The time required to decay half of the initial amount of a material is called its half life.

The half life of a sample is related with the decay constant k as follows:

k = 0.693/t1/2

Given that, t1/2 = 15 years

k = 0.693/15 = 0.0462 yr⁻¹

The first order equation of the decay process is written as:

k = 1/t ln w0/wt

where w0 is the initial amount and wt be the amount after time t.

then t = 1/k ln w0/wt

Given that, the sample was decayed to one eighth of the initial amount .

t = 1/k ln 8

 = 1/0.0462 ln 8

 = 45 years.

Therefore, option C is correct.

Answers

Answer:potential difference is more or less like voltage. Using ohms, V=IR

Where V is Voltage

I is Current =0.4A

R is Resistance=20ohms

V=0.4*20

V=8V

Hence the potential difference will be 8V.

ii) V=0.4*30

V=12V

Explanation:

The voltage of potential difference is directly proportional to the current and the resistance. So if one increase or decrease, it will have impact on the other.

From the calculations, when the resistance increase, the voltage will increase to appreciate the change.

in which diagram 1 or 2 would the person be experiencing summer? explain​

Answers

Answer:

Diagram 1

Explanation:

In diagram one, the earth is leaning toward the sun, meaning it is summertime.

The person will experience summer in diagram one because the earth is tilted towards the sun.

What is the summer season?

From diagram one we can see that earth is tilted towards the sun. During summer, the North Pole of the earth is tilted towards the sun.

As a consequence, the sun’s path is higher in the sky, causing the northern hemisphere to receive more light and heat.

In addition, because the sun is in the sky for more hours, the summer solstice is also the longest day of the year.

These extra hours of sunlight give the sun more time to heat the earth and this is the main reason for summer to be the hottest season.

During summer the sun is perpendicular to the tropic of cancer and heats more areas that lie in the tropic of cancer.

Thus the answer will be diagram 1 because the earth is tilted towards the sun.

pushing it up a ramp. The ramp is 4.0 m long and the back of
the truck is 1.5 m high. The mechanical advantage of the ramp
is
(Round to the nearest tenth)
Check it

Answers

Answer:

2.7

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) of box = 100 Kg

Length (L) of ramp = 4 m

Height (H) of ramp = 1.5 m

Mechanical advantage (MA) of ramp =?

Mechanical advantage of a ramp is simply defined as the ratio of the length of the ramp to the height of the ramp. Mathematically, it is given by:

Mechanical Advantage = Lenght / height

MA= L/H

With the above formula, we can obtain the mechanical advantage of the ramp as follow:

Length (L) of ramp = 4 m

Height (H) of ramp = 1.5 m

Mechanical advantage (MA) of ramp =?

MA = 4/1.5

MA = 2.7

Therefore, the mechanical advantage of the ramp is 2.7

A 70.0 kg base runner moving at a speed of 4.0 m/s begins his slide into second base. The coefficient of friction between his clothes and Earth is 0.70.

How far does the runner slide? F. 0.29 m G. 0.57 m H. 0.86 m J. 1.2 m

Answers

Answer:

B. 560 J

J. 1.2 m

Explanation:

v = Final velocity = 0

u = Initial velocity = 4 m/s

[tex]\mu[/tex] = Coefficient of friction = 0.7

m = Mass of runner = 70 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = [tex]9.81\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]

Kinetic energy is given by

[tex]K=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 70\times (0^2-4^2)\\\Rightarrow K=-560\ \text{J}[/tex]

The mechanical energy lost is 560 J

Acceleration is given by

[tex]a=-\mu g\\\Rightarrow a=-0.7\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow a=-6.867\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]

From kinematic equations we get

[tex]v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0^2-4^2}{2\times -6.867}\\\Rightarrow s=1.165\approx 1.2\ \text{m}[/tex]

The runner slides for 1.2 m

a. The amount of mechanical energy that is lost because of friction acting on the runner is: B. 560 J

b. The distance the runner slide is equal to: J. 1.2 m

Given the following data:

Mass = 70.0 kgSpeed = 4.0 m/sCoefficient of friction = 0.70.

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]

a. To determine the amount of mechanical energy that is lost because of friction acting on the runner, we would calculate the change in kinetic energy:

Mathematically, the change in kinetic energy is given by the formula:

[tex]\Delta K.E = \frac{1}{2} m(v-u)^2[/tex]

Substituting the parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]\Delta K.E = \frac{1}{2} \times 70(4-0)^2\\\\\Delta K.E = 35(4)^2\\\\\Delta K.E = 35 \times 16\\\\\Delta K.E = 560\;Joules[/tex]

Mechanical energy = 560 Joules

b. To determine how far (distance) the runner slide:

First of all, we would find the runner's acceleration.

[tex]Acceleration = ug\\\\Acceleration = 0.70 \times 9.8[/tex]

Acceleration = 6.86 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]

For distance:

[tex]V^2 = U^2 + 2aS\\\\4^2 = 0^2 + 2(6.86)S\\\\16=13.72S\\\\S=\frac{16}{13.72}[/tex]

A plane is traveling at a velocity of 90 m/s. It accelerates at a constant rate of 1.5 m/s2 until its velocity reaches 500 m/s. What distance did the plane cover while it was accelerating?

Answers

Recall that

v ² - v₀² = 2 ax

where

v₀ = initial velocity

v = final velocity

a = acceleration

x = distance

Then

(500 m/s)² - (90 m/s)² = 2 (1.5 m/s²) ∆x

x = ((500 m/s)² - (90 m/s)²) / (2 (1.5 m/s²))

x ≈ 80,633 m

Jack and Jill decide to run a race. Jack weighs 90 kg and Jill weighs 50 kg. At the end of the race it was decided that Jack and Jill tied so they had the same speed. Which person had more momentum ?

Answers

Answer: Jack.

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the quantity of motion.

For an object that has a mass M, and a velocity V, the momentum is written as:

P = M*V

For this problem, we know that Jack and Jill had the same speed (so they had the same velocity), let's say that this velocity is v.

Then the momentum of Jack will be:

P = 90kg*v

And the momentum of Jill will be:

P = 50kg*v

We can see that Jack will have a larger momentum, and this is because he has a larger mass than Jill, but the same velocity as her.
