Physics
1 answer:
r-ruslan [8.4K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells. Also, industry (sterilization and disinfection) and the nuclear industry.

A doppler effect occurs when a source of sound moves. True or False
Shtirlitz [24]
<h2>Answer: True </h2>

The <u>Doppler effect</u> refers to the change in a wave perceived frequency when the emitter of the waves, and the receiver (or observer in the case of light) move relative to each other.

In other words, it is the variation of the frequency of a wave due to the relative movement of the source of the wave with respect to its receiver.

It should be noted that this effect  bears its name in honor of the Austrian physicist <u>Christian Andreas Doppler</u>, who in 1842 proposed the existence of this effect for the case of light in the stars. Another important aspect is that the effect occurs in all waves (including light and sound). However, it is more noticeable to humans with sound waves.

Elemental analysis of the unknown gas from part a revealed that it is 30.45% n and 69.55% o by mass. What is the molecular formu
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

the molecular formula for the gas is NO₂

Explanation:

since it contains

Nitrogen = n → 30.45%

Oxygen = o → 69.55%

and 30.45%+69.55% = 100% , then the gas only contains nitrogen and oxygen

Also we know that the proportion of oxygen over nitrogen  is

proportion of oxygen over nitrogen  = moles of oxygen / moles of nitrogen

since

moles = mass / molecular weight

then for a sample of 100 gr of the unknown gas

mass of oxygen = 69.55%*100 gr = 69.55 gr

mass of Nitrogen = 30.45%*100 gr = 30.45 gr

proportion of oxygen over nitrogen = (mass of oxygen/ molecular weight)/(mass of nitrogen / molecular weight of nitrogen ) =  (69.55 gr/ 16 gr/mol) /( 30.45 gr /14 gr/mol) = 1.998 mol of O/ mol of N≈ 2 mol of O/ mol of N

therefore there are 2 atoms of oxygen per atom of nitrogen

thus the molecular formula for the gas is:

NO₂
