What in the world is infrared radiation

1 answer:

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.

Answer:

construct validity

Explanation:

According to my research on studies conducted by various psychologists, I can say that based on the information provided within the question it seems that the researcher is using construct validity. This is the act of measuring or validating what the extent to which a claim is true. In this situation since the claim states that people involved in crimes tend to do speed and drugs, then the researcher compares the criminals responses to those areas to test the validity of the claim.

Two moles of helium are initially at a temperature of 21.0 ∘Cand occupy a volume of 3.30×10−2 m3 . The helium first expands at c

Anettt [7]

Answer:

(B) The total internal energy of the helium is 4888.6 Joules

(D) The final volume of the helium is 0.066 cubic meter

Explanation:

(B) ∆U = P(V2 - V1)

From ideal gas equation, PV = nRT

T1 = 21°C = 294K, V1 = 0.033m^3, n = 2moles, V2 = 2× 0.033=0.066m^3

P = nRT ÷ V = (2×8.314×294) ÷ 0.033 = 148140.4 Pascal

∆U = 148140.4(0.066 - 0.033) = 4888.6 Joules

Assuming a closed system

(C) Wc = (P1V1 - P2V2) ÷ 0.4 = (148140.4×0.033 - 56134.7×0.066) ÷ 0.4 = (4888.6 - 3704.9) ÷ 0.4 = 1183.7 ÷ 0.4 = 2959.25 Joules
