X-rays have the shortest wavelength of any waves on that particular list.
Gamma ray waves are shorter than X-rays, but they're not on that list.

A 2.0-mm-long, 1.0-mmmm-diameter wire has a variable resistivity given by rho(x)=(2.5×10−6)[1+(x1.0m)2]Ωmrho(x)=(2.5×10−6)[1+(x1
Tresset [83]

Answer:

1.144 A

Explanation:

given that;

the length of the wire = 2.0 mm

the diameter of the wire = 1.0 mm

the variable resistivity R = \rho (x) =(2.5*10^{-6})[1+(\frac{x}{1.0 \ m})^2]

Voltage of the battery = 17.0 v

Now; the resistivity of the variable (dR) can be expressed as = \frac{\rho dx}{A}

dR = \frac{(2.5*10^{-6})[1+(\frac{x}{1.0})^2]}{\frac{\pi}{4}(10^{-3})^2}

Taking the integral of both sides;we have:

\int\limits^R_0  dR = \int\limits^2_0 3.185 \ [1+x^2] \ dx

R = 3.185 [x + \frac {x^3}{3}}]^2__0

R = 3.185 [2 + \frac {2^3}{3}}]

R = 14.863 Ω

Since V = IR

I = \frac{V}{R}

I = \frac{17}{14.863}

I = 1.144 A

∴  the current if this wire if it is connected to the terminals of a 17.0V battery = 1.144 A

How to calculate kinetic energy given mass and velocity
sashaice [31]

In classical mechanics, kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. For example, if a an object with a mass of 10 kg (m = 10 kg) is moving at a velocity of 5 meters per second (v = 5 m/s), the kinetic energy is equal to 125 Joules, or (1/2 * 10 kg) * 5 m/s2.

A bullet is shot horizontally from shoulder height (1.5 m) with an initial speed 200 m/s. (a) How much time elapses before the b
daser333 [38]

Answer:

<h2>a) Time elapsed before the bullet hits the ground is 0.553 seconds.</h2><h2>b) The bullet travels horizontally 110.6 m</h2>

Explanation:

a)  Consider the vertical motion of bullet

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Displacement, s = 1.5 m      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      1.5 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 xt²

                      t = 0.553 s

      Time elapsed before the bullet hits the ground is 0.553 seconds.

b) Consider the horizontal motion of bullet

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 200 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²  

        Time, t = 0.553 s      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      s = 200 x 0.553 + 0.5 x 0 x 0.553²

                      s = 110.6 m

      The bullet travels horizontally 110.6 m
