The light will change its direction and bend away from the normal.
Answer:
a. Microwaves—3 and infrared waves—1
Explanation:
Microwaves and infrared waves are both part of the electromagnetic spectrum, but they have different frequency and wavelength.
In particular:
- Microwaves are long-wavelength electromagnetic waves, with wavelength between 1 mm and 1 m. Their wavelength is longer than visible light
- Infrared waves are also long-wavelength electromagnetic waves, but their wavelength is shorter than microwaves: between 700 nm and 1 mm. Their wavelength is also longer than visible light.
The two types of waves are also used for different purposes. In particular:
- Infrared waves are emitted by any hot object, and their intensity depends on the temperature of the object. Therefore, they are used in astronomy to show the heat released by astronomical objects (option 1)
- Microwaves are used to study the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). This is electromagnetic radiation that permeates the whole universe, and its wavelength depends inversely on the local temperature. Therefore, areas with longer wavelength have lower temperature, and viceversa. Therefore, microwaves are used to measure temperature differences in space (option 3).
Answer:
Gamma rays occupy the short-wavelength end of the spectrum; they can have wavelengths smaller than the nucleus of an atom. Visible light wavesare one-thousandths the width of human hair--about a million times longer than gamma rays. Radio waves, at the long-wavelength end of the spectrum, can be many meters long.
Answer:
Renewable energy: Tidal, solar and wind
Non renewable energy: nuclear power
Explanation:
Renewable energy is any energy in which its source is always replenished or renewed.
While non renewable energy sources cannot be replenished or renewed immediately because of its limited availability of resources.
Most renewable energy sources are natural sources.
Solar, tidal and wind energy are renewable energy known as clean energy. While nuclear energy is a non renewable energy in which its source of energy is fuel ( uranium e.t.c)
Work done by the car is 3900 J
Explanation:
- Power and work are related by the equation, Power = Work Done/Time
- Power is the rate at which work is done.
- Here, the car uses power of 260 W and time taken is 15 s.
Work Done = Power × Time
= 260 × 15 = 3900 J
