X-rays have shorter wavelength than visible light. But that's hardly the reason that they're used for medical imaging. xrays have much higher frequencies then visible light which means they have much greater penetrating ability. with xrays you can see inside the body. you can't do that with a visible flashlight no matter how bright and powerful it is.

A weather balloon is floating at a constant height above the earth when it releases a pack of instruments. If the pack hits the
andrezito [222]

Answer:

c 275 m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Final velocity  = 73.5m/s

Unknown:

Height of fall  = ?

Solution:

Since the body is falling from rest, U = 0 or initial velocity is 0m/s. Then we use one of the kinematics equation to solve this problem.

           V²   = U²  + 2gH

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

H is the height

           73.5²   = 0²  +  (2 x 9.8 x h)

         5402.25 = 19.6h

                h = 275.6m

A 105kg astronaut lands on the moon, with a weight of 170N. What is the acceleration due to gravity
Anvisha [2.4K]

Explanation:

given: m= 105kg,f=170N,a=?

F = m×a

a = f/m

a=170/105

therefore, a=1.62m/s^2

A 95 kg man lying on a surface of negligible friction shoves a 65 g stone away from himself, giving it a speed of 4.0 m/s. what
zlopas [31]
We can solve this problem by conserving linear momentum.
 We have then that:
 P1 = P2
 m1v1 + m2v2 = m1v1 '+ m2v2'
 Substituting values and clearing:
 95 (0) + 0.065 (0) = 95v + 0.065 (4)
 0 = 96v + 0.26
 96v = -0.26
 v = -0.0027 m / s
 The man moves in the opposite direction to the stone.
 answer:
 the speed that a man acquire as a result is v = -0.0027 m / s
