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.

denpristay [2]

Answer:

c. 1600J

Explanation:

The loss in potential energy of the boy is given by:

U=mg \Delta h

where

m = 40 kg is the mass of the boy

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\Delta h = 4 m + 0.02 m = 4.02 m is the total change in the height of the boy (4 metres + 2 cm due to the compression of the spring)

Substituting, we find

\Delta U = (40 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(4.02 m) = 1577 J \sim 1600 J
