Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf Pressure}

Explanation:

<u>Pressure:</u>

  • The amount of force acting on per unit area is called pressure.

<u>Mathematical form:</u>

  • P = \frac{F}{A}

<u>Unit:</u>

  • The unit of pressure is N/m² or Pascal. Many other units are also used for pressure.

How are gamma rays and microwaves similar
kompoz [17]

They are both electromagnetic waves

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves consisting of periodic oscillations of electric and magnetic fields. The fields oscillate in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave, so they are transverse waves.

Electromagnetic waves are the only type of waves able to travel in a vacuum. All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum at the same speed, known as the speed of light, equal to:

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s

Electromagnetic waves are divided into 7 different types, depending on their wavelength and frequency. From the shortest to the longest wavelength (and so, from highest to lowest frequency, since frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength), we have:

Gamma rays

X rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves

So as we can see, both gamma rays and microwaves are types of electromagnetic waves. The difference between them is their different wavelength/frequency: in fact, the wavelength of gamma rays is extremently short (), while microwaves have longer wavelengths (at the order of the centimeter).

The conductors that carry the current to electrical devices and ? equipment are the heart of all electrical systems. There are a
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

utilization / effects

Explanation:

Utilization equipment are those equipment that makes use of electric energy for the purpose of chemical, electronic, lighting, heating, electro-mechanical or other alike purposes. Hence utilization best suits the first question mark in the question. Secondly, there are associated effects when current flows through a conductor, not responses.

A 100.0-kg bakery sign hangs from two thin cables as shown.
harina [27]

Answer:

1. T₁ = 500 N

2. T₂ = 866 N

Explanation:

Please see attached photo for the diagram.

Thus, we can obtain obtained the value of T₁ and T₂ as follow:

1. Determination of T₁

Angle θ = 30

Hypothenus = 100 kg

Opposite = T₁ =?

Sine θ = Opposite /Hypothenus

Sine 30 = T₁ / 100

Cross multiply

T₁ = 100 × Sine 30

T₁ = 100 × 0.5

T₁ = 50 Kg

Multiply by 10 to express in Newton

T₁ = 50 × 10

T₁ = 500 N

2. Determination of T₂

Angle θ = 60

Hypothenus = 100 kg

Opposite = T₂ = ?

Sine θ = Opposite /Hypothenus

Sine 60 = T₂ / 100

Cross multiply

T₂ = 100 × Sine 60

T₂ = 100 × 0.8660

T₂ = 86.6 Kg

Multiply by 10 to express in Newton

T₂ = 86.6 × 10

T₂ = 866 N
