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.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

D. 1×10⁻⁸ M

Explanation:

[H⁺] [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

(1×10⁻⁶) [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 1×10⁻⁸

Physics question, help please!

The change in potential energy when the block falls to ground is -480J.

The maximum change in kinetic energy of the ball is 480 J.

The initial kinetic energy of the ball is 0 J.

The final  kinetic energy of the ball is 0.148J.

The initial potential energy of the ball is 0.187 J.

The final  potential energy of the ball is 0 J.

The work done by the air resistance is 0.039 J.

<h3>Change in potential energy when the block falls to ground</h3>

ΔP.E = -mgh

ΔP.E = -Wh

ΔP.E = - 40 x 12

ΔP.E = -480 J

<h3>Maximum change in kinetic energy of the ball</h3>

ΔK.E = - ΔP.E

ΔK.E = - (-480 J)

ΔK.E = 480 J

<h3>Initial kinetic energy of the ball</h3>

K.Ei = 0.5mv²

where;

  • v is zero since it is initially at rest

K.Ei = 0.5m(0) = 0

<h3>Final kinetic energy</h3>

K.Ef =  0.5mv²

K.Ef = 0.5(0.0091)(5.7)²

K.Ef = 0.148 J

<h3>Initial potential energy of the ball</h3>

P.Ei = mghi

P.Ei = 0.0091 x 9.8 x 2.1

P.Ei = 0.187 J

<h3>Final potential energy</h3>

P.Ef = mghf

P.Ef = 0.0091 x 9.8 x 0

P.Ef = 0

<h3>Work done by the air resistance</h3>

W = ΔE

W = P.E - K.E

W = 0.187 J - 0.148 J

W = 0.039 J

What is an ion and how does an atom become both positive or negative ion?
Bess [88]

Answer:

An ion is an atom or group of atoms with a positive or negative charge. Ions form when atoms lose or gain electrons to obtain a full outer shell: metal atoms lose electrons to form positively charged ions non-metal atoms gain electrons to form negatively charged ions.
