What in the world is infrared radiation

Physics
1 answer:
alexandr402 [8]3 years ago
7 0

Infrared radiation is heat that travels from one place to another
in the form of electromagnetic waves.

It's called "infrared" because its wavelength is just past the
longest visible light ... the next category with wavelengths
longer than red light.

Infrared radiation is how heat gets here from the sun, and how
you feel the heat from a fireplace or a campfire when you stand
20 feet away from them.  When that happens, your front gets
toasty while your back stays cold, so you know it's not a matter
of any warm air around you that's warming you.  It's the infrared
electromagnetic radiation direct from the fire to your skin.

Which equation represents a neutralization reaction?
elixir [45]

B  acid + base    →  water + salt

Explanation:

The best equation that represents a neutralization reaction is:

                      acid + base    →  water + salt

In a neutralization reaction, an acid reacts with a base to produce salt and water only.

Here, hydrogen combines with hydroxide to form water.

Titration is usually used to carry out this reaction in the laboratory.

An indicator is added to the base and at end the color of the reaction changes.

At this point the acids have completely been neutralized with the base.

A piston raises a weight, then lowers it again to its original height. If the process the system follows as the piston rises is
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Negative

Explanation:

First law of thermodynamic also known as the  law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system is constant; energy can be transformed from one form to another, but can be neither created nor destroyed.

The first law relates  relates changes in internal energy to heat added to a system and the work done by a system by the conservation of energy.

The first law is mathematically given as ΔU  = U_{F} - U_{0} = Q - W

Where Q  = Quantity of heat

            W = Work done

From the first law The internal energy has the symbol U. Q is positive if heat is added to the system, and negative if heat is removed; W is positive if work is done by the system, and negative if work is done on the system.

Analyzing the pistol when it raises in isothermal and when it falls in  isobaric state.The following can be said:

In the Isothermal compression of a gas there is work done on the system to decrease the volume and increase the pressure. For work to be done on the system it is a negative work done then.

In the Isobaric State An isobaric process occurs at constant pressure. Since the pressure is constant, the force exerted is constant and the work done is given as PΔV.If a gas is to expand at a constant pressure, heat should be transferred into the system at a certain rate.Isobaric is a fuction of heat which is Isothermal Provided the pressure is kept constant.

In Isobaric definition above it can be seen that " Heat should be transferred into the system ata certain rate. For heat to be transferred into the system work is deinitely been done on the system thereby favouring the negative work done.

Suppose we are given a square coil that is 5.5 cm on a side containing 100 loops of very fine wire. The total resistance of this
maw [93]

Answer:

I = 578A

Explanation:

The magnitude of the peak value of the induced current flowing in a coild is given by

I = \frac{\epsilon_{max}}{R}

I = \frac{NBA\omega}{R}

Where

I= current

N = Number of loops

\omega = angular velocity

R= Resistance

B = Magnetic field

A = Area

Replacing our values we have that,

I = \frac{(100)(1.3)(0.055)^2(2.5)}{1.7*10^{-3}}

I = 578A

Explain what the core muscles do and why it's important to have a strong set of core muscles.
Alika [10]

Answer:

Since your spine runs by your core, having a strong core will help protect and stabilize your spine, and you're also are able to control movements such as walking or standing better with a strong core.
