Answer:

Electromagnetic waves

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves that consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields, that oscillate perpendicularly to each other and perpendicularly to the direction of propagation of the wave (for such a reason, these waves are also called transverse waves).

Electromagnetic waves always travel in a vacuum at the same speed, called speed of light:

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s

and they are classified into 7 different types, according to their frequency. From lowest to highest frequency, we have:

Radio waves

Microwaves

Infrared

Visible light

Ultraviolet

X-rays

Gamma rays

Therefore, gamma rays, x-rays, visible light and radio waves are all types of electromagnetic waves with different frequencies.

If a car is speeding down a road at 40 miles/hour (mph), how long is the stopping distance d40 compared to the stopping distance
tia_tia [17]
Assume that the deceleration due to braking is a ft/s².

Note that
40 mph = (40/60)*88 = 58.667 ft/s
25 mph = (25/60)*88 = 36.667 ft/s

The final velocity is zero when the car stops, therefore
v² - 2ad = 0, or d = v²/(2a)
where
v = initial speed
a = deceleration
d = stopping distance.

The stopping distance, d₄₀, at 40 mph is
d₄₀ = 58.667²/(2a)
The stopping distance, d₂₅, at 25 mph is
d₂₅ = 36.667²/(2a)

Therefore
d₄₀/d₂₅ = 58.667²/(2a) ÷ 36.667²/(2a)
           = (58.667/36.667)²
           = 2.56

Answer:
The stopping distance at 40 mph is 2.56 times the stopping distance at 25 mph.

Describe the relationship between the potential energy and kinetic energy of an object and the amount of Kinetic energy it can g
ankoles [38]

Kinetic energy of an object is the energy it contains due to movement. If an object is at rest, it doesn't have kinetic energy. If it's moving, then it has kinetic energy. It's pretty simple! The amount of kinetic energy of an object is dependent upon two variables, one being the mass of the object

Describe the image of an object that is 38 cm from a concave mirror that has a focal length of 10 cm.
harina [27]
Let's start by using the mirror equation:
\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{d}+ \frac{1}{q}
where f=10 cm is the focal lenght of the mirror, d=38 cm is the distance of the object from the mirror, while q is the distance of the image from the mirror.
For the sign convention, f is taken as positive for a concave mirror. Therefore, we can solve the equation for q:
\frac{1}{q}=  \frac{1}{f}- \frac{1}{d} =  \frac{1}{10 cm}- \frac{1}{38 cm}
from which we find q=13.6 cm.

The fact that q is positive means that the image is real, so it is on the same side of the object, with respect to the mirror.

Then we can also find the size of the image with respect to the original object. The magnification is given by
M=- \frac{q}{d} =- \frac{13.6}{38}=-0.36
The negative sign means that the image is inverted, and the size of the image is 0.36 times the size of the object.
