The elctromagnetic spectrum ranges from the radiowaves to the gamma rays. The whole spectrum is shown in the attached picture. But the optical telescope can only see the visible region. So, it only covers from the 400 nm to 700 nm frequency. It follows the ROYGBIV colors, where red has the highest frequency and violet has the lowest frequency.

Answer:

Ultraviolet and Infrared

Explanation:

Electromagnetic spectrum shows all type of EM waves basis their frequency and wavelength. It contains EM waves from radio waves having the smallest frequency to gamma rays having maximum frequency. Through an optical telescope Mike can observe only the visible part of the spectrum which is just 7% of the complete spectrum.

The closest to the frequency range of visible light lies Ultraviolet (UV) and Infrared rays. UV rays have higher frequency than visible light and IR rays have lesser frequency.

Waves transport
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

d)energy

Explanation:

Waves can transfer energy over distance without moving matter the entire distance. For example, an ocean wave can travel many kilometers without the water itself moving many kilometers. The water moves up and down—a motion known as a disturbance. It is the disturbance that travels in a wave, transferring energy.

In an engine, a piston oscillates with simple harmonic motion so that its position varies according to the expression x= 5.0 cos
lakkis [162]

Answer:

a)   x = 4.33 m ,   b)  w = 2 rad / s ,  f = 0.318 Hz ,  c) a = - 17.31 cm / s²,  

d) T =  3.15 s,  e)  A = 5.0 cm

Explanation:

In this exercise on simple harmonic motion we are given the expression for motion

          x = 5 cos (2t + π / 6)

they ask us for t = 0

a) the position of the particle

      x = 5 cos (π / 6)

      x = 4.33 m

remember angles are in radians

 

b) The general form of the equation is

          x = A cos (w t + Ф)

when comparing the two equations

         w = 2 rad / s

angular velocity and frequency are related

          w = 2π f

           f = w / 2π

           f = 2 / 2pi

           f = 0.318 Hz

c) the acceleration is defined by

      a == d²x / dt²

      a = - A w² cos (wt + Ф)

for t = 0 ,  we substitute

      a = - 5,0 2² cos (π / 6)

      a = - 17.31 cm / s²

d) El period is

          T = 1/f

         T= 1/0.318

         T =  3.15 s

e) the amplitude

        A = 5.0 cm

Describe how pieces of rope move as waves pass
MaRussiya [10]
Well, as the waves move it moves the rope as if its trying to take shape of it. Since the rope it light it will move along the ocean and the ocean will keep pushing up on the rope. (even without the waves the water is pushing the rope up so it can take its shape)

Maybe that'll help

Tides occurs in oceans but not in lakes.why?​
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Tides occur in the ocean but nit in lakes because an ocean is a free flowing body of water that can travel a large area of the globe while a lake or pond only covers a small area of the earth so it is not affected by gravity as violently and in turn, prevents the formation of tides.

A potato and raisins salad has been warmed up to a temperature of 80∘C80∘C and let it stand for three minutes. Then one tries a
barxatty [35]

Answer : The correct option is, (a) No. Potatoes will be warmer.

Explanation :

Formula used :

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

where,

Q = heat taken

m = mass of substance

c = specific heat of substance = ?

\Delta T = change in temperature

As we are given that the potatoes have a specific heat of 3430J/(kg^oC) and raisins have a specific heat of 1630J/(kg^oC). That means higher the value of specific heat the more heat taken by the substance (more warmer will be the substance). So, the potatoes will be more warmer as compared to raisins.

Hence, the correct option is, (a) No. Potatoes will be warmer.
