Humans experience the longest visible electromagnetic waves as

Physics
1 answer:
Margarita [4]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Red light

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum classifies all the electromagnetic waves according to their wavelength/frequency. In order from shortest to longest wavelength, we have

Gamma rays

X rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared

Microwaves

Radio waves

All of these waves are invisible to human eye, except for the "visible light" part of the spectrum. Waves in the visible light part are perceived by human as different colors, depending on their wavelength. More specifically, they appear as follows:

Violet (380-450 nm)

Blue (450-495 nm)

Green (495-570 nm)

Yellow (570-590 nm)

Orange (590-620 nm)

Red (620-750 nm)

So we see that the longest electromagnetic wave in the visible light part of the spectrum corresponds to red light.

Elis [28]
<span> Weight = mass x acceleration
Earths acceleration is 9.8 m/s*2
1 kg = 2.2 lbs, so 2.0 lbs x 1 kg/2.2 lbs = 0.91 kg
The bag would have a weight of 9.8 x 0.91 = 8.9 N

1. 8.9 x 1/6 = 1.5 N

2. 8.9 x 2.64 = 23.5 N

The mass of the bag at all three locations is 0.91 kg. Mass does not change, the different locations only change its weight. </span>

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

<h2>289.9 kg.m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

momentum = mass × velocity

From the question we have

momentum = 130 × 22.3

We have the final answer as

<h3>289.9 kg.m/s</h3>

Hope this helps you
