Which of the following statements about X-rays and radio waves is not true? Which of the following statements about X-rays and r
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

X-rays travel through space faster than radio waves.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.

All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, the speed of light, whose value is:

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s

Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types, according to their wavelength/frequency. From shortest to longest wavelength (and so, from highest to lowest frequency), we have:

Gamma rays

X rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves

Now we can analyze the 4 statements:

X-rays and radio waves are both forms of light, or electromagnetic radiation --> TRUE. They are both types of electromagnetic waves.

X-rays have higher frequency than radio waves. --> TRUE, as we can see from the table above.

X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio waves. --> TRUE, as we can see from the table above.

X-rays travel through space faster than radio waves. --> FALSE: all electromagnetic waves travel in space at the same speed, the speed of light.

Two hockey players have a total momentum of +200 kg x m/s before a collision (+ is to the right). After the collision, they move
Juliette [100K]

Total momentum after the collision: +200 kg m/s to the right

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using the law of conservation of momentum, which states that for an isolated system (=no external forces acting on the system), the total momentum is conserved.

Mathematically,

p_i=p_f

where

p_i is the total momentum before the collision

p_f is the total momentum after the collision

In this problem, the system consists of two hockey players. Before the collision, their total momentum is

p_i = +200 kg m/s (to the right)

Therefore, according to the law of conservation of momentum, their total momentum after the collision must be the same:

p_f = +200 kg m/s

And given that the sign is +, the direction is still the same, therefore to the right.

When an average force F is exerted over a certain distance on a shopping cart of mass m, its kinetic energy increases by 1/2 mv2
agasfer [191]
W work
F force 
s distance

If F = constant:

W₁ = F·s

If you triple the force and the distance:

W₂ = 3F · 3s = 9 F·s = 9 W₁

What are the consequences of sediment pollution?
Nonamiya [84]
Loss of habitats for fish, birds, and other wildlife. Sediment pollution is one of the leading causes of the loss of the wetlands, but it’s not just the wetlands. Changes in the nutrients in your water. The same problem that affects the fish in your area may also affect you. Other drinking water contamination.
