Quick Quiz 40.2 While standing outdoors one evening, you are exposed to the following four types of electromagnetic radiation: y

ellow light from a sodium street lamp, radio waves from an AM radio station, radio waves from an FM radio station, and microwaves from an antenna of a communications system. Rank these types of waves in terms of photon energy from highest to lowest

The order of decreasing photon energy is FM radio, AM radio, yellow light, and microwaves.

Electromagnetic radiation: The electromagnetic field's waves, which are conveying electromagnetic radiant energy through space, are what make up electromagnetic radiation. It consists of X-rays, gamma rays, microwaves, infrared, light, and radio waves. These waves are all a component of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Microwave radiation has wavelengths between one meter and one millimeter, which correspond to frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz, respectively.

Radio waves: The electromagnetic spectrum's longest wavelengths, which are found in radio waves, are normally found at frequencies of 300 gigahertz and below.

The radio waves have the highest photon energy and the lowest is microwaves.

So, the highest to lowest order is FM radio, AM radio, yellow light and microwaves.

I drop an egg from a certain distance and it takes 3.74 seconds to reach the ground. How high up was the egg?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

68.5 meters

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

t = 3.74 s

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0) (3.74) + ½ (9.8) (3.74)²

Δy = 68.5

The egg fell 68.5 meters.

which of the following statements best explains how consumers determine growth in technological areas
Mrac [35]
If these were the missing choices:

a)      Consumers fill out questionnaires concerning their need for new products.

b)      Consumers vote for politicians who decide which kind of research to support

c)       Consumers decide what to buy and what not to buy

d)      Consumers influence the decisions of private foundations by deciding where to donate money.


My answer would be: c)       <span>Consumers decide what to buy and what not to buy</span>

Every growth is based on the demand of the people. If a good or service is needed then its demand will increase. If a good or service is not needed then its demand will decrease until such time that said good or service will be eliminated.

The trade winds are tropical winds that blow toward the Equator. Choose the statement that best explains why the trade winds blo
AveGali [126]

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the fourth option or letter D. Trade winds blow towards the equator because t<span>he Equator receives the most heat energy.

</span>The surface air that flows from these subtropical high-pressure belts toward the Equator is deflected toward the west in both hemispheres by the Coriolis effect. These winds blow<span> predominantly from the northeast in the Northern Hemisphere and from the southeast in the Southern Hemisphere.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

Distinguish between friction force and motion?
Ksju [112]

Friction force is when you rub 2 things together and they get warm. Motion, on the other hand, is if your walking along the sidewalk - you hardly get warmer -------


Unless it's a colder day outside and you're walking SO you decide to rub your hands together to get warm, but if you were just walking , its motion and only motion - no friction :):)
