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.

A 117 kg horizontal platform is a uniform disk of radius 1.61 m and can rotate about the vertical axis through its center. A 62.
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

I_syst = 278.41477 kg.m²

Explanation:

Mass of platform; m1 = 117 kg

Radius; r = 1.61 m

Moment of inertia here is;

I1 = m1•r²/2

I1 = 117 × 1.61²/2

I1 = 151.63785 kg.m²

Mass of person; m2 = 62.5 kg

Distance of person from centre; r = 1.05 m

Moment of inertia here is;

I2 = m2•r²

I2 = 62.5 × 1.05²

I2 = 68.90625 kg.m²

Mass of dog; m3 = 28.3 kg

Distance of Dog from centre; r = 1.43 m

I3 = 28.3 × 1.43²

I3 = 57.87067 kg.m²

Thus,moment of inertia of the system;

I_syst = I1 + I2 + I3

I_syst = 151.63785 + 68.90625 + 57.87067

I_syst = 278.41477 kg.m²

Can someone help? Please?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

A. Speed

Explanation:

Speed is the magnitude of velocity, which is given in the question. Velocity is a vector quantity and therefore has both a magnitude and a direction. Only the former is implied in the question.

a skydiver jumps out of a plane. describe how gravitational potential energy changes as the skydiver falls. describe how the sky
Oliga [24]

gravitational potential is directly proportional to the height of the object relative to a reference line and is given as

PE = mgh                        

where m = mass of object , g = acceleration due to                    

gravity   and  h = height of the object above the reference line .


as the skydiver falls , its height above the ground decrease and hence the gravitational potential energy of the skydiver decrease.

as per conservation of energy , total energy of the skydiver must remain constant all the time . hence the decrease in potential energy appears as increase in kinetic energy by same amount to keep the total energy constant

KE + PE = Total energy

so as the skydiver falls , it gains speed and hence the kinetic energy of skydiver increase since kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the speed.


when the parachute opens, the skydiver experience force in upward which tries to balance the weight of the skydiver. hence the speed of the skydiver decrease until upward force becomes equal to the downward force. hence the kinetic energy decrease just after the parachute opens

Earth’s atmosphere is in hydrostatic equilibrium. What this means is that the pressure at any point in the atmosphere must be hi
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: The pressure that one experiences on the Mount Everest will be different from the one, in a classroom. It is because pressure and height are inversely proportional to each other. This means that as we move up, the height keeps on increasing but the pressure will keep on decreasing. This is the case that will be observed when one stands on the Mount Everest as the pressure is comparatively much lower there.

It is because as we move up, the amount of air molecules keeps on decreasing but all of the air molecules are concentrated on the lower part of the atmosphere or on the earth's surface.

Thus a person in a low altitude inside a classroom will experience high pressure and a person standing on the Mount Everest will experience low pressure.
