Ignoring air resistance, the Kinetic energy before hitting the ground will be equal to the potential energy of the Piton at the top of the rock.  
So we have 1/2 MV^2 = MGH 
V^2 = 2GH 
V = âš2GH 
V = âš( 2 * 9.8 * 325)  
V = âš 6370
 V = 79.81 m/s

7 types of electromagnetic waves from lowest to highest frequency
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are the waves which are created as the result of the electrical waves which are perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

Electromagnetic spectrum is range of the frequencies and their respective wavelengths of the various type of the electromagnetic radiation.

In order of the increasing frequency and the photon energy and the decreasing wavelength the spectrum are:  

<u>radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays</u>.

When hydrogen is heated or subjected to an electric discharge, it emits light with specific visible wavelengths. A diffraction g
BartSMP [9]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the double slit-experiment. For which we will relate the distance between the Slits and the Diffraction Angle with the order of the bright fringe and the wavelength, this is mathematically given as,

d sin\theta = m\lambda

Here,

d = Distance between Slits

m = Order of the fringes

\lambda = Wavelength

\text{Spacing between adjacent lines} = d = 4926nm

\text{Wavelength of light} = \lambda = 656nm

Rearranging to find the angle,

sin\theta = \frac{m\lambda}{d}

\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{m\lambda}{d})

\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{(4)(656*10^{-9}m)}{4926*10^{-9}m})

\theta = 32.19\°

Therefore the angle that the fourth order bright fringe occur for this specific wavelenth of light occur is 32.19°

Resolving power of a telescope whose objective lens has diameter 1.22m for a wavelength 4000 Å.​
Mamont248 [21]

\sf \huge \purple{ Answer : - }

Diameter of objective lens = 1.22m

Wavelength of light = 4000Å

We have to find resolving power of telescope ..

★ Resolving power of telescope is given by

RP = D/1.22λ

  • D denotes diameter of lens
  • λ denotes wavelength of light

RP = D/1.22λ

RP = (1.22×10⁷)/(1.22×4)

RP = 0.25 × 10⁷

RP = 2.5 × 10⁶

★ Resolving power of microscope is given by

RP = 2μsinθ/λ
