Explanation:

Answer: Gamma rays

Gamma rays have the highest frequency.

What is an electromagnetic wave?

An electromagnetic wave requires no medium for its propagation.

It consists of a spectrum of different wavelengths.

Different wavelengths of rays have different energies and different frequencies.

Higher frequency rays have the highest energies.

What is gamma-ray?

These are ionized radiations.

Gamma radiations are obtained from the decay of the atomic nucleus.

It has the highest frequency which is why it can penetrate through matter.

It has the smallest wavelength and highest energy.

The frequency of gamma rays is more than 10^19 cycles per second and wavelength less than 100 picometers.

Con lắc lò xo có độ cứng k = 100N/m được gắn vật có khối lượng m=0.1kg, kéo vật ra khỏi vị trí cân bằng 1 đoạn 5cm rồi buông tay

Delvig [45]

Answer:

The maximum velocity is 1.58 m/s.

Explanation:

A spring pendulum with stiffness k = 100N/m is attached to an object of mass m = 0.1kg, pulls the object out of the equilibrium position by a distance of 5cm, and then lets go of the hand for the oscillating object. Calculate the achievable vmax.

Spring constant, K = 100 N/m

mass, m = 0.1 kg

Amplitude, A = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Let the angular frequency is w.

$w = \sqrt{K}{m}\\\\w = \sqrt{100}{0.1}\\\\w = 31.6 rad/s$

The maximum velocity is

$v_{max} = w A\\\\v_{max} = 31.6\times 0.05 = 1.58 m/s$

Brownian motion is due to:

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Explanation:

Brownian motion is the random movement of particles in a fluid due to their collisions with other atoms or molecules. ... Brownian motion takes its name from the Scottish botanist Robert Brown, who observed pollen grains moving randomly in water. He described the motion in 1827 but was unable to explain it.

In the following reaction, 24 g of CH4 react with 96 g of Oz to form 66 g of CO2

Brut [27]

Answer:

54 g

Explanation:

Mass is conserved. Mass of reactants = mass of products.

24 g + 96 g = 66 g + x

x = 54 g
