Answer:

0.000000083333 seconds = 83.333 nanoseconds

Explanation:

The speed of light is approximately 300.000.000 m/s, that means in one second, the light travels 300.000.000 meters.

We can solve that problem using rule of three:

If the light travels 300.000.000 meters in 1 second, to travel 25 meters how long it will take? (let's call the time we want by "T")

300.000.000 - 1

25 - T

300.000.000/25 = 1/T

T = 25/300.000.000

T = 0.000000083333 seconds = 83.333 nanoseconds

Answer:

Constructed cladograms all typically share certain key features: Root – The initial ancestor common to all organisms within the cladogram (incoming line shows it originates from a larger clade) Nodes – Each node corresponds to a hypothetical common ancestor that speciated to give rise to two (or more) daughter taxa.

What happens to an electromagnetic waves as it passes from space to matter
sertanlavr [38]

Interaction of Electromagnetic Radiation and Matter

It is well known that all matter is comprised of atoms. But subatomically, matter is made up of mostly empty space. For example, consider the hydrogen atom with its one proton, one neutron, and one electron. The diameter of a single proton has been measured to be about 10-15 meters. The diameter of a single hydrogen atom has been determined to be 10-10meters, therefore the ratio of the size of a hydrogen atom to the size of the proton is 100,000:1. Consider this in terms of something more easily pictured in your mind. If the nucleus of the atom could be enlarged to the size of a softball (about 10 cm), its electron would be approximately 10 kilometers away. Therefore, when electromagnetic waves pass through a material, they are primarily moving through free space, but may have a chance encounter with the nucleus or an electron of an atom.

Because the encounters of photons with atom particles are by chance, a given photon has a finite probability of passing completely through the medium it is traversing. The probability that a photon will pass completely through a medium depends on numerous factors including the photon’s energy and the medium’s composition and thickness. The more densely packed a medium’s atoms, the more likely the photon will encounter an atomic particle. <span>In other words, the more subatomic particles in a material (higher Z number), the greater the likelihood that interactions will occur  </span>Similarly, the more material a photon must cross through, the more likely the chance of an encounter.

When a photon does encounter an atomic particle, it transfers energy to the particle. The energy may be reemitted back the way it came (reflected), scattered in a different direction or transmitted forward into the material. Let us first consider the interaction of visible light. Reflection and transmission of light waves occur because the light waves transfer energy to the electrons of the material and cause them to vibrate. If the material is transparent, then the vibrations of the electrons are passed on to neighboring atoms through the bulk of the material and reemitted on the opposite side of the object. If the material is opaque, then the vibrations of the electrons are not passed from atom to atom through the bulk of the material, but rather the electrons vibrate for short periods of time and then reemit the energy as a reflected light wave. The light may be reemitted from the surface of the material at a different wavelength, thus changing its color.

<span>X-Rays and Gamma Rays
</span>X-rays and gamma rays also transfer their energy to matter though chance encounters with electrons and atomic nuclei. However, X-rays and gamma rays have enough energy to do more than just make the electrons vibrate. When these high energy rays encounter an atom, the result is an ejection of energetic electrons from the atom or the excitation of electrons. The term "excitation" is used to describe an interaction where electrons acquire energy from a passing charged particle but are not removed completely from their atom. Excited electrons may subsequently emit energy in the form of x-rays during the process of returning to a lower energy state.

The answer is D. If you aren't consistent with your drop positions, then your data may be invalid. To be frank: it basically screws over the experiment.

An object's angular momentum is proportional to its __________. An object's angular momentum is proportional to its __________.
ozzi

An object's angular momentum is proportional to its moment of inertia.

Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Momentum is the measure of an object's movement with respect to its mass and velocity. So it is determined as the product of mass and velocity. An object moving in linear motion, will experience linear momentum.

Similarly, if an object moves in circular motion, then the momentum will be angular momentum. So it is measured as the product of moment of inertia with angular velocity.

              L = Iw

Here L is the angular momentum , I is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular velocity.

Thus, the angular momentum is directly proportional to the moment of inertia.
