Personally, I agree with your answer, namely that the likely-intended event happening here is one of acceleration. Having said that, I also want to add: it pains me to see this type of wording because, clearly, it is vague and only invites confusion of the type you are talking about.

Good luck!

The table below shows two types of electromagnetic waves and three random applications of electromagnetic waves.

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

a. Microwaves—3 and infrared waves—1

Explanation:

Microwaves and infrared waves are both part of the electromagnetic spectrum, but they have different frequency and wavelength.

In particular:

- Microwaves are long-wavelength electromagnetic waves, with wavelength between 1 mm and 1 m. Their wavelength is longer than visible light

- Infrared waves are also long-wavelength electromagnetic waves, but their wavelength is shorter than microwaves: between 700 nm and 1 mm. Their wavelength is also longer than visible light.

The two types of waves are also used for different purposes. In particular:

- Infrared waves are emitted by any hot object, and their intensity depends on the temperature of the object. Therefore, they are used in astronomy to show the heat released by astronomical objects (option 1)

- Microwaves are used to study the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). This is electromagnetic radiation that permeates the whole universe, and its wavelength depends inversely on the local temperature. Therefore, areas with longer wavelength have lower temperature, and viceversa. Therefore, microwaves are used to measure temperature differences in space (option 3).

Tin shear have longer handles than than the scissor used to cut cloth give reason

natka813 [3]

Answer:

For scissor, small movement at effort(at handle) should make long movement of load arm , so that it can cut longer lengths of cloth/paper. Hence blades are longer than handle.so its handle(load arm) is made longer than its blades.

Vector c has a magnitude 24.6 m and is in the direction of the negative y-axis. vectors a and b are at angles Î± = 41.4Â° and Î²

storchak [24]

The vector c has a magnitude of 24.6m and it is in the negative y direction. Therefore
$\vec{c} = - 24.6 \hat{j}$

The vector b is 41.4° up from the x-axis. Therefore
$\vec{b} = b[cos(41.4^{o}) \hat{i} + sin(41.4^{o}) \hat{j} ] =b(0.75\hat{i} + 0.6613 \hat{j})$

The vector a is 27.7° up from the x-axis. Therefore
$\vec{a} = a[cos(22.7^{o})\hat{i} + sin(27.7^{o})\hat{j}] = a(0.8854\hat{i} + 0.4648\hat{j})$

Because $\vec{a} +\vec{b} + \vec{c} = 0$ , the sum of the x and y components should be zero. Therefore,
For the x-component,
0.8854a + 0.75b = 0
or
a + 0.847b = 0 (1)
For the y-component,
0.4648a + 0.6613b - 24.6 = 0
or
a + 1.4228b = 52.926 (2)

Subtract (1) from (2).
0.5758b = 52.926
b = 91.917
a = -0.847b = -77.854

Answer:
The magnitude of vector a is -77.85 m
The magnitude of vector b is 91.92 m

Two identical tiny spheres of mass m =2g and charge q hang from a non-conducting strings, each of length L = 10cm. At equilibriu

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

0.247 μC

Explanation:

As both sphere will be at the same level at wquilibrium, the direction of the electric force will be on the x axis. As you can see in the picture below, the x component of the tension of the string of any of the spheres should be equal to the electric force of repulsion. And its y component will be equal to the weight of one sphere. We can use trigonometry to find the components of the tensions:

$F_y: T_y - W = 0\\T_y = m*g = 0.002 kg *9.81m/s^2 = 0.01962 N$
