Answer:
Ultraviolet light has a shorter wavelength than infrared light.
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves are waves that does nor require material medium for their propagation. Example of Electromagnetic waves are classified according to the acronym RIVUXG. They decrease in wavelength and increase in frequency from Radiowaves to Gamma ray.
R is the Radio waves
U - ultraviolet ray
V - Visible light (ROYGBIV){Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet}
Note that the visible light also decrease in wavelength from red to indigo, therefore red will have longer wavelength compare to blue light.
I - Infrared rays
X - X ray
G - Gamma ray
Based on the above conclusion, it can be inferred that Ultraviolet light has a shorter wavelength than infrared light since Infrared rays comes before the infrared light in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Rectilinear Motion, Circular Motion and Periodic Motion.
Power is the rate of work that is done per time. Work is calculated from the product of force and the displacement. So, by using the definition of power and work, we can relate power with force, displacement and the time. We do as follows:
Power = Work / time
Power = Force x displacement / time
Power = 21 N (9 m) / 3 s
Power = 63 J /s = 63 W
Answer: crystals
Explanation: intrusive igneous rocks are formed by slow cooling magma which contain crystals
Answer: D
Explanation:
Let us examine the given actions to see which ones generate heat and sound energy from mechanical energy.
A) Stretching a string.
The mechanical stretching creates tension in the string, which is released when the tension is removed. The generation of thermal or sound energy is minimal or negligible.
B) Squeezing a sponge ball
The sponge ball experiences compressive loading. This generates minimal or no heat and sound energy.
C) Throwing a ball upwards in the air
Air friction generates minimal or no heat at low velocities. At low velocities the pressure waves are too small to generate sound.
D) Striking a hammer on a nail.
A tremendous amount of force is applied over a small area to generate very high stresses that are in the plastic zone. A high amount of thermal energy is generated and the localized disturbance of the air generates audible sound.
This is the correct situation.
