Your answer is A. Gamma Rays
guapka [62]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Gamma rays

Explanation:

In the electromagnetic spectrum, the energy of gamma rays is maximum and even their penetrating power is very high.

The increasing order of energy of electromagnetic spectrum is given by

Radio waves < Micro waves < Infrared rays < Visible rays < Ultra violet rays < X rays < Gamma rays

So, gamma rays are highly energetic and they can kill the cancerous cells in the body.

The centripetal force acting on the space shuttle
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

(4) weight

Explanation:

The centripetal force acting on the space shuttle in orbit is given by:

F=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the shuttle

v is the tangential speed of the shuttle

r is the radius of its circular orbit

When the shuttle orbits the Earth, the centripetal force that keeps the shuttle in circular motion is given by the gravitational attraction between the shuttle and the Earth, which corresponds to the weight of the shuttle, and it is given by:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

And this force, therefore, corresponds to the centripetal force.

John says that the value of the function cos[ω(t + T) + ϕ], obtained one period T after time t, is greater than cos(ωt + ϕ) by 2
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

No one is right

Explanation:

John Case:

The function cos(\omega t +\phi) is defined between -1 and 1, So it is not possible obtain a value 2\pi greater.  

In addition, if you  move the function cosine a T Value, and T is the Period,  the function take the same value due to the cosine is a periodic function.

Larry case:

Is you have f=1+cos(\omega t +\phi), the domain of this is [0,2].

it is equivalent to adding 1 to the domain of the f=1+cos(\omega t +\phi), and its mean that the function f=cos(\omega t +\phi), in general, is not greater than cos(\omega t +\phi).

The world's fastest production sportscar has a top speed of 415 kmh-1(a)Convert this speed to ms-1.[ 1](b)The distance from Lond
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

(a). The speed is 115.28 m/s.

(b). The time is 94 min.

(c). The International Space Station travels 43202.400 km.

(d). Speed is scalar quantity.

Velocity is vector quantity.

Explanation:

Given that,

Top speed = 415 km/h

1 miles = 1609 m

(a). We need to calculate the speed in m/s

Using conversion of km/h to m/s

v=415\ km/h

v=415\times\dfrac{5}{18}

v=115.28\ m/s

(b). We need to calculate the distance from London to Edinburgh in km

Using conversion for distance

d=403\ miles

Distance in meter,

d=403\times1609

d=648427\ m

d=648.427\ km

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{648.427}{415}

t=1.56\ h

t=1\ hours 34\ min

t= 94\ min

(c). Speed v' =7.66 km/s

v'=7660 m/s

In the time it takes the car to travel from London to Edinburgh,

We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of distance

d'=v'\times t

Put the value into the formula

d'=7660\times94\times60

d'=43202400\ m

d'=43202.400\ km

(d). Speed :

Speed is equal to the distance divided by time.

It is scalar quantity.

Velocity :

Velocity is equal to the displacement divided by time.

It is vector quantity.

Hence, (a). The speed is 115.28 m/s.

(b). The time is 94 min.

(c). The International Space Station travels 43202.400 km.

(d). Speed is scalar quantity.

Velocity is vector quantity.
