Answer:

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.

Answer:

<u>Gamma Rays</u>

Explanation:

Each part of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum comprises photons with distinct energy levels, wavelengths, and frequencies. Gamma rays are the most energetic, have the shortest wavelengths, and have the highest frequencies.

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The capacite is C=5.32 uF using the equations of voltage and energy in capacitance

Explanation:

The energy holds is 5 J and the resistor dissipates 2J so the energy total is 3J

Using:

$V_{t}= V_{o}e^{\frac{-t}{R*C} }$

Voltage in this case is the energy dissipated so

$E_{t}= E_{o}e^{\frac{-t}{R*C} }$

$\frac{\sqrt{E_t} }{\sqrt{E_o} } = e^{\frac{-t}{R*C} }$

$\frac{\sqrt{3 J} }{\sqrt{5J} } = e^{\frac{-13.6ms}{10kw*C} }$

Using the equation to find capacitance

$ln 0.775= e^{\frac{-13.6 x10^{3} }{10x10^{3}*C }} \\ln(0.775)= ln * e^{\frac{-13.6 x10^{3s} }{10x10^{3}*C }} \\\\ln(0.775)= {\frac{-13.6 x10^{3} }{10x10^{3}*C }} \\C= \frac{-13.6 x10^{-3} }{10x10x^{3}*ln(0.775) }$

$C= 5.32x10^{-6}$ F

C= 5.32 uF because u is the symbol for micro that is equal to $10^{-6}$

If you were to travel from the equator to the higher latitudes (near either pole) on Saturn, the differential rotation would cau

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Saturn's differential rotation will cause the length of a day measures to be longer by 0.4 hours

Explanation:

Differential rotation occurs due to the difference in angular velocities of an object as we move along the latitude of the or as we move into different depth of the object, indicating the observed object is in a fluid form

Saturn made almost completely of gas and has differential motion given as follows

Rotation at the equator = 10 hours 14 minutes

Rotation at high altitude = 10 hours 38 minutes

Therefore;

The differential rotation = 10 hours 38 minutes - 10 hours 14 minutes

The differential rotation = 24 minutes = 24 minutes × 1 hour/(60 minutes) = 0.4 hours

The differential rotation = 0.4 hours

Therefore, the measured day at the higher altitude will be 0.4 longer than at the equator.
