Ultraviolet radiation is dangerous because it has a high enough energy to damage skin cells. UV radiation is called ultraviolet

because it has a frequency which is higher than violet radiation (purple light). Therefore, it has a wavelength which is ___________ than violet radiation.

Answer: smaller

Ultraviolet radiation has broad range of wavelengths, higher number means greater risk of exposure to UV rays that can be dangerous to skin cells. Sunlight is the main source of electromagnetic radiation and it is transmitted in different wavelengths known as electromagnetic spectrum. This spectrum is divided into several regions in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing energy and frequency. UV radiation has frequency and energy that is higher than purple light or violet radiation and the wavelength of ultraviolet radiation is smaller than violet radiation.

A small box of mass m1 is sitting on a board of mass m2 and length L. The board rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The constant force with least magnitude that must be applied to the board in order to pull the board out from under the box is \left( {{m_1} + {m_2}} \right){\mu _{\rm{s}}}

Explanation:

The Newton’s second law states that the net force on an object is the product of mass of the object and final acceleration of the object. The expression of newton’s second law is,

\sum {F = ma}

Here, is the sum of all the forces on the object, mm is mass of the object, and aa is the acceleration of the object.

The expression for static friction over a horizontal surface is,

F_{\rm{f}}} \leq {\mu _{\rm{s}}}mg

Here, {\mu _{\rm{s}}} is the coefficient of static friction, mm is mass of the object, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Use the expression of static friction and solve for maximum static friction for box of mass {m_1}

Substitute  for in the expression of maximum static friction {F_{\rm{f}}} = {\mu _{\rm{s}}}mg

{F_{\rm{f}}} = {\mu _{\rm{s}}}{m_1}g

Use the Newton’s second law for small box and solve for minimum acceleration aa to pull the box out.

Substitute  for , [/tex]{m_1}[/tex] for in the equation .

{F_{\rm{f}}} = {m_1}a

Substitute {\mu _{\rm{s}}}{m_1}g for {F_{\rm{f}}} in the equation {F_{\rm{f}}} = {m_1}a

{\mu _{\rm{s}}}{m_1}g = {m_1}a

Rearrange for a.

a = {\mu _{\rm{s}}}g

The minimum acceleration of the system of two masses at which box starts sliding can be calculated by equating the pseudo force on the mass with the maximum static friction force.

The pseudo force acts on in the direction opposite to the motion of the board and the static friction force on this mass acts in the direction opposite to the pseudo force. If these two forces are cancelled each other (balanced), then the box starts sliding.

Use the Newton’s second law for the system of box and the board.

Substitute for for in the equation .

{F_{\min }} = \left( {{m_1} + {m_2}} \right)a

Substitute for in the above equation .

{F_{\min }} = \left( {{m_1} + {m_2}} \right){\mu _{\rm{s}}}g

The constant force with least magnitude that must be applied to the board in order to pull the board out from under the box is \left( {{m_1} + {m_2}} \right){\mu _{\rm{s}}}g

There is no friction between the board and the surface. So, the force required to accelerate the system with the minimum acceleration to slide the box over the board is equal to total mass of the board and box multiplied by the acceleration of the system.

The magnitude of the net force versus time graph has a rectangular shape. Often in physics geometric properties of graphs have p
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In this particular case, the area of the graph represents the impulse.

In fact, impulse is defined as the change in momentum of an object:

I=\Delta p

Moreover, impulse is also defined as the product between the magnitude of the force acting on an object and the duration of the collision:

I=F\Delta t

If we plot a graph of the force versus the time, if the force is constant then this graph will have a rectangular shape, and the area under the graph will simply be the product

F\cdot \Delta t

which corresponds to the definition of impulse.

our 3.80-kg physics book is placed next to you on the horizontal seat of your car. The coefficient of static friction between th
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Maximum force of friction possible = μmg

= .65 x 3.8 x 9.8

= 24.2 N

u = 72 x 1000 / 60 x 60

= 20 m /s

v² = u² - 2as

a = 20 x 20 / (2 x 30)

= 6.67 m / s²

force acting on it

= 3.8 x 6.67

= 25.346 N

Friction force possible is less .

So friction will not be able to prevent its slippage

It will slip off .

When a voltage difference is applied to a piece of metal wire, a current flows through it. if this metal wire is now replaced wi
Nikitich [7]

The resistance of the cylindrical wire is R=\frac{\rho l}{A}.

Here R is the resistance, l is the length of the wire and A is the area of cross section. Since the wire is cylindrical A=\frac{\pi d^2}{4} .

Comparing two wires,

R_1=\frac{\rho_1 l}{A_1} \\ R_2=\frac{\rho_2 l}{A_2}

Dividing the above 2 equations,

\frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{\rho_1 }{\rho_2}  \frac{A_2 }{A_1}  \\ \frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{\rho_1 }{\rho_2}  \frac{d_2^2 }{d_1^2}  \\

Since d_2=2d_1

The above ratio is

\frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{1.68(10^{-8})  }{1.59(10^{-8}) } (4)\\ \frac{R_1}{R_2}=4.2264

We also have,

\frac{E/R_1}{E/R_2} =\frac{I_1}{I_2} \\ I_2=\frac{R_1}{R_2}I_1 \\ I_2=4.23I_1

The current through the Silver wire will be 4.23 times the current through the original wire.
