4 0

Answer:

It consists of the shortest wavelength electromagnetic waves and so impacts the highest photon energy. So I'm guessing B- pure energy is the answer.

Explanation:

A gamma ray, or gamma radiation is a penetrating electromagnetic radiation arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. This is what I got off google

There's no such thing as "pure energy".

Gamma rays are <em>electromagnetic waves</em> with very high frequency and very short wavelength.  They carry energy in the form of high-energy photons.

Define a scalar. Give two examples of scalars that you have used recently
Pie

In Mathematics and Physics, scalar is a quantity or a single number that shows the measurement of a medium in magnitude only (It does not include direction as vectors do); examples of scalars are voltage, mass, temperature, speed, volume, power, energy, and time.

Two examples of scalars I have used recently are Degrees Celsius to measure the temperature of my living room and Cubic Feet to measure the volume of my mug.

What mechanisms do astronomers believe is responsible for making the Sun's outer atmosphere so much hotter than its photosphere?
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

magneto hydrodynamic( MHD) waves

Explanation:

The surface of the Sun transmits magneto hydrodynamic( MHD) waves to its atmosphere. These waves carry energy from the sun's surface to its atmosphere ( Corona) and heat up the atmosphere to such extent that its temperature rises to many time than that of the surface temperature of the Sun.
