Do electromagnetic waves occur in a continuous spectrum based on their wavelength?

Physics
1 answer:
likoan [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Yes

Explanation: Because Electromagnetic waves form a continuous spectrum and all types of electromagnetic wave travel at the same velocity through a vacuum (space) or air. The waves that form the electromagnetic spectrum are grouped in terms of their wavelength and their frequency.

A well-insulated electric water heater warms 131 kg of water from 20.0°C to 51.0°C in 31.0 min. Find the resistance (in Ω) of it
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat required to warm the water from 20 degree to 51 degree

= mct

= 131 x 4150 x ( 51 - 20 )

= 16853150 J

Power of heating element

= v² /R

Heat generated in 31 min

= (v² / r ) x 31 x 60 = 16853150

r = (240 x 240 x 31 x 60) / 16853150

6.35 ohm

In this case heat required will change so time will also change

Heat required =

131 x 4150 x ( 100-51  )

= 26638850 J

If time required be t hour

Energy consumed

Power x time

=  (v² / r ) x t  x 60 = 26638850

t  = 26638850 x 6.35 / (240 x 240 x 60 )

= 48.95 h

Heat required to evaporate water at 100 degree

= mass x latent heat

= 131 x 2260000

= 296060000 J

Total heat required

= 296060000 + 26638850 + 16853150

= 339552000 J

time required = 339552000 x 6.35 / (240 x 240 x 60 )

= 623.88 h .

On a horizontal, linear track lies a cart that has a fan attached to it. The mass of the cart plus fan is 364 g. The cart is pos
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

6.62s

Explanation:

Metric unit conversion:

364 g = 0.364 kg

789 g = 0.789 kg

Starting from rest, the cart takes 4.49 s to travel a distance of 1.43 m. We can use the following equation of motion to calculate the constant acceleration

s = a_1t_1^2/2

a_1 = \frac{2s}{t_1^2} = \frac{2*1.43}{4.49^2} = 0.142 m/s^2

Using Newton's 2nd law, we can calculate the force generated by the fan to push the 0.364 kg cart forward

F = a_1m_1 = 0.142*0.364 = 0.052 N

Now that more mass is added, the new acceleration of the 0.789 kg cart is

a_2 = F/m_2 = 0.052 / 0.789 = 0.065 m/s^2

We can reuse the same equation of motion to calculate the time it takes to travel 1.43 m from rest

s = a_2t_2^2/2

t_2^2 = 2s/a_2 = 2*1.43/0.065 = 43.7

t_2 = \sqrt{43.7} = 6.62s

A car has a velocity of 15 m/s.
yan [13]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 15 m/s

a = 3.5 m/s²

t = 5.0 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (3.5 m/s²) (5.0 s) + 15 m/s

v = 32.5 m/s

Which describes an atom that has fewer neutrons than protons and more electrons than protons?
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

negative ion

Explanation:

An atom that has fewer neutrons than protons and more electrons than protons is a negative ion.

The positively charged particles in an atom are the protons

The negatively charged particles in an atom are the electrons.

  The charge an atom carries depends on the balance between the number of protons and electrons in an atom.

  • When the number of protons is more than the number of electrons, the atom is positively charged.
  • When the number of electrons is more than the number of protons, the atom is negatively charged.
