The correct answer to the question is : A) Tossing it horizontally at a faster speed.
EXPLANATION:
Before going to answer this question, first we have to know the horizontal distance covered by any body when it is fired parallel to the ground.
Let us consider a body of mass m is fired with velocity u parallel to the ground. Let it was projected at a height h from the ground.
Hence, the horizontal distance covered by the projectile is calculated as -
Horizontal distance R =
.
Here, g is known as the acceleration due to gravity.
From above, we see that more is the initial velocity, the more is the horizontal distance covered by it i.e the more is the widest curved path.
Hence, the correct answer to the question is that tossing a ball horizontally at a faster speed will trace out the widest curved path.
Three times of it's length
Answer:
The blue light has the highest energy.
Explanation:
Body that is hot enough emits light as consequence of its temperature. For example, an iron bar in contact with fire will start to change colors as the temperature increases until it gets to a blue color. That its know as Wien's displacement law, which establishes that the peak of emission for the spectrum will be displaced to shorter wavelengths as the temperature increases.
The same scenario described above can be found in the star, a star with higher temperature will have a blue color and one with lower temperature will have a red color.
(1)
The energy of each wavelength can be determined by means of the following equation:
(2)
but
, therefore:
(3)
Where h is the planck's constant and
is the frequency.
Notice that it is necessary to express the frequency in units of meters for a better representation of the energy.
⇒
⇒
Case for the bluest light:
Case for the reddest light:
Equation 3 show that if the wavelength is lower the energy will be greater (inversely proportional).
Hence, according with the result and what was explained above, the blue light has the highest energy.
