Answer:

c. 0.25km

Explanation:

v=f x wavelength

3000 = 12 x wavelength

wavelength = 3000/12 = 250m

250m to km

To convert m to km, we divide by 1000

250/1000 =0.25km

wavelength = 0.25km

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Mammography is the process in which low energy radiations are used to diagnose and screening. The purpose of this process is the early detection of the breast cancer. These low energy radiations may have some risks like damaging and burning of cells.

In the current scenario, woman is apprehensive because she has read about the risks of using ionizing radiations. The radiographer should tell her the benefits of the mammography will outweigh its potential consequences. Screening, for instance, will let her know if she is suffering from breast cancer. Cancer is very dangerous disease as compare to very small burning.

In this way radiographer should handle the situation.

Which is not expecting acceleration?

Elena L [17]

A point on the outside of a spinning top whose rotational speed is constant.

Since the point at the top is at rest so it will not accelerate at all

A skydiver whose air resistance is equal to that of her weight.

Since weight is counter balanced by air resistance so net force on it is zero so acceleration will be zero

A car on the freeway experiencing a net force of -120 N.

Since net force is not zero so it will accelerate here

A submerged beach ball whose buoyant force is eight times the force of gravity on it.

Since buoyant force is more than the weight so it will not at rest and move upwards with some acceleration

A frictionless spinning merry go round.

Since spinning wheel accelerating due to centripetal force so it is non inertial frame

A falling rock.

Falling rock is accelerating due to gravity so it is again non inertial frame

A hot air balloon moving at 30 degrees east of north with no net force.

since hot air balloon is having no force on it so its acceleration is zero and its an inertial frame

A space shuttle whose boosters just ignited for takeoff.

Since space shuttle is accelerating due to boosters so it is non inertial frame

Here net force on it is due to two given forces

$F_1 = 4320 N$ towards right

$F_2 = 4380 N$ towards left

so here net force is given as

$F = F_2 - F_1$

$F = 4380 - 4320 = 60 N$

since force towards left is more so the direction will be towards left

so correct answer is 60 N towards left

Conductivity in a metal results from the metal atoms having

maks197457 [2]

Answer: A) highly mobile electrons in the valence shell

Explanation: conductivity in metals is a result of the movement of electrically charged particles—the electrons. These free electrons also known as valence electrons are free to move, and as a result they can travel through the lattice that forms the physical structure of a metal. The presence of valence electrons determines a metal's conductivity. However, several other factors can affect the conductivity of a metal such as impurities, temperature, magnetic fields etc.
