Comparing X-ray to radio wave, which has a shorter wavelength?

Physics
1 answer:
Daniel [21]3 years ago

Answer:

x-ray

Explanation:

X-rays can penetrate through matter because of their high frequencies while radio waves are not able to do so as much. If you think about it, taking an x-ray requires a lot more energy than for radio waves to allow you to listen to songs on the radio. Hope this helps :)

3) A driver in a 1000-kg car traveling at 24 m/s slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. If the coefticient of friction between
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

A) 37 m

Explanation:

The car is moving of uniformly accelerated motion, so the distance it covers can be calculated by using the following SUVAT equation:

v^2 -u^2 = 2ad (1)

where

v = 0 m/s is the final velocity of the car

u = 24 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

d is the length of the skid

We need to find the acceleration first. We know that the force responsible for the (de)celeration is the force of friction, so:

F=ma=-\mu mg

where

m = 1000 kg is the mass of the car

\mu = 0.80 is the coefficient of friction

a is the deceleration of the car

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

The negative sign is due to the fact that the force of friction is against the motion of the car, so the sign of the acceleration will be negative because the car is slowing down. From this equation, we find:

a=-\mu g

And we can substitute it into eq.(1) to find d:

v^2 -u^2 = 2(\-mu g) d\\d= \frac{v^2-u^2}{-2 \mu g}=\frac{0-(24 m/s)^2}{-2(0.80)(9.8 m/s^2)}=36.7 m \sim 37 m

A sinusoidal transverse wave travels along a long, stretched, string. the amplitude of this wave is 0.0885 m, it's frequency is
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

(a) 0.177 m

(b) 16.491 s

(c) 25 cycles

Explanation:

(a)

Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the  wave = 2A ............ Equation 1

Where A = amplitude of the wave.

Given: A = 0.0885 m,

Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the wave = (2×0.0885) m

Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the wave = 0.177 m.

(b)

T = 1/f ...................... Equation 2.

Where T = period, f = frequency.

Given: f = 4.31 Hz

T = 1/4.31

T = 0.23 s.

If 1 cycle pass through the stationary observer for 0.23 s.

Then, 71.7 cycles will pass through the stationary observer for (0.23×71.7) s.

= 16.491 s.

(c)

If  1.21 m contains  1 cycle,

Then, 30.7 m will contain (30.7×1)/1.21

= 25.37 cycles

Approximately 25 cycles.

Does parallax affect the precision of a measurement that you make
Paul [167]
Yes, parallax affects the precision of a measurement that you make. It introduces an error in the order of the parallax. It will cause the measurement to be different from the real answer. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

At a depth of 1030 m in Lake Baikal (a fresh water lake in Siberia), the pressure has increased by 100 atmospheres (to about 107
dangina [55]

Answer:

A volume of a cubic meter of water from the surface of the lake has been compressed in 0.004 cubic meters.

Explanation:

The bulk modulus is represented by the following differential equation:

K = - V\cdot \frac{dP}{dV}

Where:

K - Bulk module, measured in pascals.

V - Sample volume, measured in cubic meters.

P - Local pressure, measured in pascals.

Now, let suppose that bulk remains constant, so that differential equation can be reduced into a first-order linear non-homogeneous differential equation with separable variables:

-\frac{K \,dV}{V} = dP

This resultant expression is solved by definite integration and algebraic handling:

-K\int\limits^{V_{f}}_{V_{o}} {\frac{dV}{V} } = \int\limits^{P_{f}}_{P_{o}}\, dP

-K\cdot \ln \left |\frac{V_{f}}{V_{o}} \right| = P_{f} - P_{o}

\ln \left| \frac{V_{f}}{V_{o}} \right| = \frac{P_{o}-P_{f}}{K}

\frac{V_{f}}{V_{o}} = e^{\frac{P_{o}-P_{f}}{K} }

The final volume is predicted by:

V_{f} = V_{o}\cdot e^{\frac{P_{o}-P_{f}}{K} }

If V_{o} = 1\,m^{3}, P_{o} - P_{f} = -10132500\,Pa and K = 2.3\times 10^{9}\,Pa, then:

V_{f} = (1\,m^{3}) \cdot e^{\frac{-10.1325\times 10^{6}\,Pa}{2.3 \times 10^{9}\,Pa} }

V_{f} \approx 0.996\,m^{3}

Change in volume due to increasure on pressure is:

\Delta V = V_{o} - V_{f}

\Delta V = 1\,m^{3} - 0.996\,m^{3}

\Delta V = 0.004\,m^{3}

A volume of a cubic meter of water from the surface of the lake has been compressed in 0.004 cubic meters.
