Answer:

the correct answer is D

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation is described by two equations, the first that gives the speed of light

c = λ f

Where c is the speed of light, λ the wavelength and f the frequency

And the equation that gives the energy of the wave

E = h f

In general, based on these two equations and their applications, the different areas of the electromagnetic spectrum have different names.

The gamma radiation is in the high energy range, so it has a high frequency and if the frequency is high, the wavelength must be short. to keep the speed of light constant.

Based on the above, the correct answer is D

A neutral atom of uranium (U) has 146 neutrons and a mass number of 238. How many protons does it have?

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

92 protons

Explanation:

The mass number is 238 , so the nucleus has <u>238 particles</u> in total, including <u>146 neutrons</u>. So to calculate the number of neutrons we have to subtract: 238 − 146 = 92

What are two types of diffraction?

tino4ka555 [31]

Fresnel and Fraunhofer diffraction. Fresnel diffraction is produced when light from a point source meets an obstacle, the waves are spherical and the pattern observed is a fringed image of the object. Fraunhofer diffraction occurs with plane wave-fronts with the object effectively at infinity. The pattern is in a particular direction and is a fringed image of the source.
