Which of the following technologies would produce the most energy in light waves?

Physics
1 answer:
Finger [1]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

D. Ultraviolet disinfecting wand.

Explanation:

Energy in light waves depends upon the frequency o the waves. Higher the frequency of the waves, higher the amount of energy it carries. Similarly, waves with shorter wavelength has higher frequencies and thus more energy.

Ultraviolet disinfecting wand would produce most energy out of the four options because it produce UV waves which have shorter wavelength and higher frequency.

In a simple electric circuit, a 110-volt electric heater
Readme [11.4K]

Answer: 55 ohms

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of heater (v) = 110-volt

Current drawn by heater (I) = 2.0 amperes

resistance of the heater (r) = ?

Since voltage, current and resistance are involved, apply the formula for ohms law.

Voltage = current x resistance

i.e v = ir

where r = v / i

r = 110 volts / 2.0 A

r = 55 ohms

Thus, the resistance of the heater is 55 ohms

the winner of a 10km road race took half an hour to complete the race. Calculate the average speed. Give your answer in metres p
leonid [27]
Hello there!

For this:

1). Convert 10km to meters!
2). Convert the 30 minutes into seconds!

3). Use the following formula to solve for speed!

speed= distance/time

Note: The units should automatically work out to m/s. :)

My goal is to make sure you understand the problem, which is why I won't be giving you the answer. It'll be more work now, but less work in the future! :)

Hope this helped!

Which structure reduces friction between joints?
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The cartilage is the structure that reduces friction between joints.

Explanation:

Cartilage is the tissue between the bone joints. They are composed of several membranes and cellular groups. One of them called synovial membrane which provides lubricant to the edges of tissue that are touched by the bones. Reducing the friction and absorbing it so the body can move without obstacles.

A machine that operates a ride at the fair requires 2500 J to lift a 294 N child 5.0 m. What is the efficiency of this machine?
NeX [460]

Answer:

η = 58.8%

Explanation:

Work is defined as the force applied by the distance traveled by the body.

W =F*d

where:

W = work [J] (units of joules)

F = force = 294 [N]

d = distance = 5 [m]

W = 294*5\\W = 1470 [J]\\

Efficiency is defined as the energy required to perform an activity in relation to the energy actually added to perform some activity. This can be better understood by means of the following equation.

efficiency = W_{done}/W_{required}\\efficiency = 1470/2500\\efficiency = 0.588 = 58.8%

By increasing the circuits resistance R, in a capacitive circuit the phase difference between the current in the circuit and pot
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

B) Gets smaller

Explanation:

The difference of phase between current and voltage in a AC circuit is the phase  angle and it depends on the value of Z ( circuit impedance)

Z = R + X   where R is the resistive component and X the reactance component, which is due either to a presence of an  inductor or a capacitor. In any case the total impedance depends on R the resistive, and the phase angle φ is:  

tan⁻¹ φ =  X/R

Have a look to a pure capactive circuit (we are talking about AC current) in this case current leads voltage by 90⁰. If we add a resistor in the circuit  the current still will lead a voltage but in this condition the phase angle will be smaller,

If  R increase, X/R  decrease and tan⁻¹ φ also decrease
