Answer:
Visible light
X rays
ultraviolet radiation
gamma rays
microwave radiation
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields which vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave (transverse wave). Electromagnetic waves have all same speed in a vacuum (, known as speed of light) and are classified into 7 different types according to their frequency and wavelength. This classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.
From lowest to highest wavelength, the 7 types are:
Gamma rays
X-rays
Ultraviolet radiation
Visible light
Infrared radiation
Microwaves
Radio waves
Sound waves, on the contrary, do not belong to the electromagnetic spectrum, since they are another type of wave called mechanical waves (which consist of vibrations of the particles in a medium).
Answer:
a) the magnitude of the force is
F= Q() and where k = 1/4πε₀
F = Qqs/4πε₀r³
b) the magnitude of the torque on the dipole
τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²
Explanation:
from coulomb's law
E =
where k = 1/4πε₀
the expression of the electric field due to dipole at a distance r is
E(r) = , where p = q × s
E(r) = where r>>s
a) find the magnitude of force due to the dipole
F=QE
F= Q()
where k = 1/4πε₀
F = Qqs/4πε₀r³
b) b) magnitude of the torque(τ) on the dipole is dependent on the perpendicular forces
τ = F sinθ × s
θ = 90°
note: sin90° = 1
τ = F × r
recall F = Qqs/4πε₀r³
∴ τ = (Qqs/4πε₀r³) × r
τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²
