Answer:

Solar Flares and Prominences

Explanation:

    The sun is source of light and heat energy and it supports life on earth because sun is the primary source of energy. But sun is also a star and is a glowing ball of hot gases mostly hydrogen and helium. There are so many activity that takes place on surface of sun. But the two activity solar flare and prominences affect the radio communication.

Solar Flare  are electromagnetic energy built up in the sun atmosphere .These energy travel with the speed of light and affect outer atmosphere of earth. These increased level of X rays and ultraviolet rays ions the layer of ionosphere which becomes superionised. thus causing destructive interference.

The radio waves travel in ionosphere and  frequently collide with electron lose energy and completely blackout.

Prominence is defined as gaseous cloud of calcium,hydrogen and other gases floating above sun chromosphere and emit violently particularly near sunspots sometimes travel through space and affect radio communication.

Electromagnetic radiation in order of increasing (lowest to highest) frequency is Radio waves < Green visible light < UV radiation.

<h3>What is Frequency?</h3>

This is defined as the rate at which something occurs or is repeated over a particular period of time. The unit of frequency is referred to as Hertz.

Electromagnetic radiations with increasing frequency can be seen below:

Radio waves, microwaves, infrared waves, visible light, ultraviolet radiations, X rays, γ rays.

1.How is the law of conservation of energy demonstrated by the movement of the pendulum?
Snezhnost [94]
1. Law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created, nor destroyed, for example, windmills take kinetic energy(movement energy) and convert it into electrical energy using gears and a generator as well as the blades.

so this supports it because the pendulum never reaches the same height twice unless you reset it so the energy is always getting less and less and not randomly getting back onto the pendulum.

2.Gravity, friction and air resistance slow it down as well

3. at the top, potential energy is the amount of energy something has relative to the amount it can disperse before stopping, for example, a book on a shelf has more potential energy than that of a book on a table, this is because when the shelf book falls it will create more energy than the table book.

State: the units for acceleration are?
krok68 [10]

A unit of acceleration needs a unit of length in the numerator
and a squared unit of time in the denominator.

Example:    meters / second²
                    feet / minute²
                    smoots / hour² 
                    furlongs / fortnight² .

Ideally, in order to completely describe an acceleration vector,
you also need to state a direction.

A 1-kg collar (located at point (2,2) from the origin) is pulled along a vertical, frictionless bar with a force of 10 N applied
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The acceleration of the collar is 10 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the collar, m = 1 kg

applied force on the bar, F = 10 N

The acceleration of the collar can be calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

where;

F is the applied force

m is mass of the object

a is the acceleration

a = F / m

a = 10 / 1

a = 10 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the collar is 10 m/s²

Consider four point charges arranged in a square with sides of length L. Three of the point charges have charge q and one of the
nydimaria [60]

Answer:F_{net}=\frac{kq^2}{(L)^2}\left [ \frac{1}{2}+\sqrt{2}\right ]

Explanation:

Given

Three charges of magnitude q is placed at three corners and fourth charge is placed at last corner with -q charge

Force due to the charge placed at diagonally opposite end on -q charge

F_1=\frac{kq(-q)}{(L\sqrt{2})^2}

where  L\sqrt{2}=Distance between the two charges

F_1=-\frac{kq^2}{2L^2}

negative sign indicates that it is an attraction force

Now remaining two charges will apply the same amount of force as they are equally spaced from -q charge

F_2=\frac{kq(-q)}{(L)^2}

The magnitude of force by both the  charge is same but at an angle of 90^{\circ}

thus combination of two forces at 2 and 3 will be

F'=\sqrt{2}\frac{kq^2}{2L^2}

Now it will add with force due to 1 charge

Thus net force will be

F_{net}=\frac{kq^2}{(L)^2}\left [ \frac{1}{2}+\sqrt{2}\right ]
