Ultraviolet radiation is dangerous because it has a high enough energy to damage skin cells. What is the BEST explanation of the

relationship between wavelength and wave energy? A) Wave energy is related only to frequency, not wavelength. B) Longer wavelengths have lower frequencies but higher energy. C) The shorter the wavelength, the lower the frequency and the higher the energy. D) The shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency and the higher the energy.

The answer is shorter the wavelength, higher the frequency and higher the energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The sun radiates UV energy in a wide range of wavelength, which are invisible to human eyes. The shorter the wavelength, the more energetic the radiation, and the greater the potential for harm.

The relationship between wavelength and wave energy is shorter the wavelength, higher the frequency and higher the energy.

It has a frequency ranges from 8 × 10^14 to 3 × 10^16 cycles per second, or hertz (Hz), and wavelengths id about 380 nanometers to about 10 nm.

A toy train has an acceleration of 1.2 m/s2. A net force of 3.0 N is acting on the train. What is the mass of the train?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

2.5 kg

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Newton's second law:

F=ma

where

F is the net force acting on the train

m is the mass of the train

a is the acceleration

For the toy train in the problem,

F = 3.0 N

a = 1.2 m/s^2

So we can solve the formula for m, to find the mass of the train:

m=\frac{F}{a}=\frac{3.0 N}{1.2 m/s^2}=2.5 kg

Name TWO WEAKNESSES of the model pictured below
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Here are a few:

1) The orbital radius of these planets is ridiculously small an in no way representative of their actual radii.

2) The planets will only line up like that once every 5200 years, making this very unrepresentative of their usual relations - although this does make their order in distance from the sun.

3) The nebulae, comet, lens flare,  and other junk in the background is incorrect.

4) If this is meant as a representation of the planets, then Pluto should not be there as it is now considered a planetoid.

5) The planets are incorrectly scaled both to each other and to the sun.

Can anyone plz give me a right answer now?
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Dy = - 0.0789 [m]

Explanation:

The vertical component of the vector can be determined with the sine of the angle.

Dy = 0.250*sin(18.4)

Dy = 0.0789 [m]

As the y-component is pointing downwards the component is negative.

Dy = - 0.0789 [m]
