B Yea that should be the right answer
Answer:
v = 2,99913 10⁸ m / s
Explanation:
The velocity of propagation of a wave is
v = λ f
in the case of an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum the speed that speed of light
v = c
When the wave reaches a material medium, it is transmitted through a resonant type process, whereby the molecules of the medium vibrate at the same frequency as the wave, as the speed of the wave decreases the only way that they remain the relationship is that the donut length changes in the material medium
λ = λ₀ / n
where n is the index of refraction of the material medium.
Therefore the expression is
v =
Let's look for the frequency of blue light in a vacuum
f =
f =
f = 6.667 10¹⁴ Hz
the refractive index of air is tabulated
n = 1,00029
let's calculate
v =
450 10-9 / 1,00029 6,667 1014
v = 2,99913 10⁸ m / s
we can see that the decrease in speed is very small
X-rays are high energy electrons
that can cause damage when exposed under extreme conditions. The best technology
that can block it is using a lightweight type of metal foam. It can take in
high energy collisions which also exhibits high forces. it does not only block
x-rays but also, neutron radiation and gamma rays.
<u>Increase the thickness of the wire</u> would decrease the resistance in a wire
Explanation:
Thicker wires have a larger cross-section that increases the surface area with which electrons can flow unimpeded. The thicker the wire, therefore, the lower the resistance.
Thin wires have very high resistance the reason the thin tungsten in a bulb glows because it is heated from the high resistance of many electrons trying to pass through a very small cross-section.
