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:
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.
Answer:
Explanation:
Component of force perpendicular to stick
= F Sin 60°
=√3 / 2 F.
Taking torque about the other end
= √3 / 2 F x 1 Nm
Weight of stick = 60 gm
= 60 x 10⁻³ kg
= 60 x 10⁻³ x 9.8 N
= .588 N
This weight will act from the middle point of stick so torque about the
other end
= .588 x 1 Nm
Balancing these two torques we have
.588 = √3 /2 F
F = 0.679 N
