Answer:

Option c

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are the waves which can travel in vacuum unlike mechanical waves which require a medium to travel. Electromagnetic waves have highest speed in vacuum. In fact, no thing can have speed greater than the speed of EM waves in vacuum. EM waves, thus move faster than the mechanical waves. EM waves carry energy by oscillations of magnetic and electric fields perpendicular to the direction of motion.

What is black body radiation? Explain in detail.
tangare [24]

An object that absorbs all radiation falling on it, at all wavelengths, is called a black body. When a black body is at a uniform temperature, its emission has a characteristic frequency distribution that depends on the temperature. Its emission is called black-body radiation

Which of the following has the greatest kinetic energy? A. a mass of 4m at velocity v. B. a mass of 3m at velocity 2v. C. a mass
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy that the body possesses by virtue of its motion.

The formula for Kinetic energy is given by \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Using this formula let us find kinetic energy for the bodies given and find out which is the greatest

A) KE = \frac{1}{2} (4m)(v^2) = 2mv^2

B) KE =\frac{1}{2} (3m)(2v)^2 = 6mv^2

C) KE = \frac{1}{2} (2m)(3v)^2 = 9mv^2

D) KE = \frac{1}{2} (3)(4v)^2 = 8mv^2

Comparing these we find that 9mv^2 is the highest.

Hence option C is the answer.

*A car is going through a dip in the road whose curvature approximates a circle of radius 150m. At what velocity will the occupa
Valentin [98]

Answer:

v= 14.85 m/s

Explanation:

  • When at the bottom of the dip, the only force that keeps the car in the circular trajectory, is the centripetal force.
  • This force is not a new force, is just the net force aiming to the center of the circle.
  • In this case, is just the difference between the normal force (always perpendicular to the surface, pointing upward) and the force that gravity exerts on the car (which is known as the weight), pointing downward.
  • So, we can write the following expression:

       F_{cent} = F_{n} - F_{g}  (1)

  • It can be showed that the centripetal force is related to the speed by the following expression:
  • F_{cent} = m*\frac{v^{2}}{r} (2)
  • The normal force, it is called the apparent weight, because it would be the weight as measured by a scale.
  • Replacing (2) in (1), and solving for Fn, we get:

       F_{n} = m*\frac{v^{2} }{r} + m*g (3)

  • Now, we need to find the value of v that makes Fn, exactly 15% more than the weight m*g, so we can write the following equation:

      F_{n} = 1.15*F_{g} = m*\frac{v^{2}}{r} +F_{g}  (4)

  • Replacing Fg by its value, simplifying, and solving for v, we get:

       v = \sqrt{0.15*g*r} = \sqrt{9.8 m/s2*0.15*150m} = 14.85 m/s (5)
