How does the width of the visible spectrum compared to that of the entire electromagnetic spectrum?

Physics

Citrus2011 [14]3 years ago
5 0
<span>The width of the physical spectrum is shorter than that of the electromagnetic spectrum. The visible spectrum is the light that can be seen with the human eye, which we see as the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet or ROY G. BIV. However, there are more wavelengths that can be seen beyond that, which are apart of the electromagnetic spectrum. For example, the UV rays, microwaves, and Gamma Rays cannot be seen by the human eye. Therefore, the electromagnetic spectrum is longer than the visible spectrum because there is so much more that humans can not see. The visible spectrum is only 400-750nm. The electromagnetic spectrum is 10 to the -14 to 10 to the 4 meters.</span>

The message refers to which of the following?
Oliga [24]

The message is the information being communicated from one place to another.

It used to be called the "intelligence".  But as time went on, it became
harder to ignore the obvious fact that that was going too far, and the
label was changed to the more IQ-neutral "message".

Calculate the change in internal energy of the following system: A balloon is cooled by removing 0.659 kJ of heat. It shrinks on
bixtya [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

-310J

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The change in internal energy (ΔE) of a system is the sum of the heat (Q) and work (W) done on or by the system. i.e

ΔE = Q + W       ----------------------(i)

If heat is released by the system, Q is negative. Else it is positive.

If work is done on the system, W is positive. Else it is negative.

<em>In this case, the system is the balloon and;</em>

Q = -0.659kJ = -695J    [Q is negative because heat is removed from the system(balloon)]

W = +385J  [W is positive because work is done on the system (balloon)]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

ΔE = -695 + 385

ΔE = -310J

Therefore, the change in internal energy is -310J

<em>PS: The negative value indicates that the system(balloon) has lost energy to its surrounding, thereby making the process exothermic.</em>

Answer:

The dolphin's speed is 17 mi/h

Explanation:

Use the formula for average velocity: Distance/time

then the average speed of the dolphin is 51/3  mi/h = 17 mi/h
