A bug walking on the surface of a puddle is depending on HIGH SURFACE TENSION BECAUSE OF THE ATTRACTION BETWEEN WATER MOLECULES.

Water has a lot of interesting properties due to the hydrogen bonds that hold its molecules together. One of the interesting property of water is surface tension.

Surface tension refers to the property of the water surface, which enables it to resist an external force. The cohesive forces among the water molecules is responsible for the surface tension. The surface tension of water allow small animals such as insects to walk on water.

Infrared radiation A) Heat from warm objects, used to detect the location of objects Microwaves B) All the radiation humans can
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Infrared radiation → A) used to detect the location of objects

Microwaves → D) Used in radar and to heat food

Ultraviolet light → C)Given off by very hot objects, such as the sun  Heat from warm objects

Visible light → B) All the radiation humans can see, ranging from red to violet

Explanation:

Microwaves have magnetic waves with very long lengths, greater than that of infrared light. These waves are produced through vibrations that produce heat, as the microwave is turned on, which allows the food to be heated. These waves are also used to provide communication on some types of devices.

Infrared radiation is a type of non-ionizing radiation that has a low frequency and therefore cannot be visualized, since it is not within a visible electromagnetic spectrum, having a frequency lower than red. It can be used to detect the licalization of objects and does not pose a health risk.

Ultraviolet radiation is extremely harmful to our body. It is characterized by radiation with very small wavelengths, less than 400nm. This type of radiation can be released by the sun and ultraviolet lamps.

Visible light refers to the simplest form of electromagnetic wave and covers all the radiation that our eyes can see, allowing different colors to be seen in the objects we observe according to the reorganization of atoms and molecules.

Water has a higher boiling point than expected because what?
finlep [7]

Answer:

Water has strong hydrogen bonds between molecules. These bonds require a lot of energy before they will break. This leads to water having a higher boiling point than if there were only weaker dipole-dipole forces. Water also has a high specific heat.

Explanation:

Hope this helped it is what I could find!
