The electromagnetic waves used in a bar-code scanner by an image is produced when a silicon chip releases electrons by the photoelectric effect and Visible light is reflected off an object and then captured by a charge-coupled device.

<h3>What is electromagnetic wave?</h3>

The electromagnetic wave is the white light or Sunlight coming directly from the Sun. This light ray is the form of wave. This light when falls on any object segregates into the range of all types of EM radiation.

Radiation is packet of energy that travels and spreads out. It has radio waves, infrared waves and visible light waves, ultraviolet rays and microwaves.

Bar code scanner uses the photoelectric effect and visible light reflection phenomenon.

Thus, the correct options are A and C.

An example of a a predator in the Ethiopian Highlands ecosystem is the

Wolf.The wolf is a carnivore which acts as a predator to other smaller

animals in the ecosystem.

Preys are mostly smaller animals in which the predators feed on for food.

They are usually herbivores and primary consumers in the ecosystem.

Examples of Preys include:

A plane is landing. It started at 400m/s and ended up at 50m/s after 30 seconds. What is it's acceleration?

quester [9]

Give u = start velocity

v = end velocity

v = u + at

50 = 400 + a*30

30a = -350

a = -116.67 m/ $s^{2}$

**Why the accecleration is negative number**

Because displacement, velocity, and acceleration are VECTOR QUANTITIES.

Vector Quantity must have direction.

If the mass of a

mixer [17]

Answer:

The final acceleration becomes (1/3) of the initial acceleration.

Explanation:

The second law of motion gives the relationship between the net force, mass and the acceleration of an object. It is given by :

$F=ma$

m = mass

a = acceleration

According to given condition, if the mass of a sliding block is tripled while a constant net force is applied. We need to find how much does the acceleration decrease.

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

Let a' is the final acceleration,

$a'=\dfrac{F}{m'}$

m' = 3m

$a'=\dfrac{F}{3m}$

$a'=\dfrac{1}{3}\times \dfrac{F}{m}$

$a'=\dfrac{1}{3}\times a$

So, the final acceleration becomes (1/3) of the initial acceleration. Hence, this is the required solution.

In general, if the temperature of a chemical reaction is increased, the reaction rateA. IncreasesB. decreasesC. remains the same

In-s [12.5K]

A. Increases

I would assume this to be the answer because heat is another form of energy. If there is more energy the molecules will become more active. This makes A the most logical answer.
