Answer:

The correct answer is a = alpha particle

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

An alpha particle is a particle formed by two neutrons and two protons, so its charge is positive.

A beta particle is a high energy electron, so its charge is negative.

A gamma radiation is a radiation composed of photons.

In this case, the correct answer is a = alpha particle

Alpha particle is the type of radiation that is emitted when polonium - 212 forms from lead - 208. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "A". An alpha particle is basically a combination of two protons and two neutrons. I hope the answer has helped you.

What process allows radios to receive signals even when they are not in line of a tower?
Inessa05 [86]
The answer is A. Refraction

Refraction is a change in direction of propagation of a wave due to a change in its transmission medium, by maintaining its frequency while changing the wave velocity at the same time will allows radios to receieve signals even though when they're not in line

In your research lab, a very thin, flat piece of glass with refractive index 2.30 and uniform thickness covers the opening of a
trapecia [35]

Answer:

λ₀= 495.88 nm

Explanation:

To analyze this constructive interference interference experiment by reflection, let's look at two important aspects:

* when a ray of light passes from a medium with a lower index, they refact to another medium with a higher index, the reflected ray has a phase difference of pyres

* When a beam penetrates a material medium, the wavelength of the radiation changes according to the refractive index of the material.

       λₙ = λ₀ / n

when we introduce these aspects in the expression of contributory interference, it remains

        2 d sin θ = (m + ½) λ₀ / n

In general, reflection phenomena are measured at an almost normal angle, whereby θ = π/2  and sin θ = 1

        2 d = (m +1/2) λ₀/ n

         2n d = (m + ½) λ₀

Let's apply this expression to our case

         d = (m + ½) λ₀ / 2n

Suppose we measure on the first interference, this is m = 0

         d = ½ λ₀ / 2n

 

let's calculate

         d = ½ 496 10⁻⁹ / (2 2.30)

         d = 53.9 10-9 m  

This is the thickness of the glass, the next wavelength that gives constructive interference is

          λ₀ = 2 n d / (m + ½)

let's calculate

          λ₀ = 2 2.3 5.39 10-8 / (1 + ½)

          λ₀= 4.9588 10-7 m

          λ₀= 495.88 nm

All light waves move through a vacuum with a constant speed. True or False
andrey2020 [161]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Electromagnetic wave is defined as the wave which is associated with both electrical and magnetic component associated with them. They can travel in vacuum as well and travel with the speed of light.

Electromagnetic spectrum consists of electromagnetic waves called as radio waves, microwaves, infrared, Visible, ultraviolet , X rays and gamma rays in order of increasing frequency and decreasing wavelength.

Thus the statement that All light waves move through a vacuum with a constant speed is true.

Two equal forces are applied to a door. The first force is applied at the midpoint of the door; the second force is applied at t
TEA [102]

Answer: The second force applied to the doorknob

Explanation:

The formulae for torque is simple the product of the applied force and the perpendicular distance.

The greater the perpendicular force, the greater the torque assuming a constant value of force.

Applying the force at the doorknob gives for a greater distance between the force and the turning point compared to applying the force at the midpoint of the door ( which is at a shorter distance)
