Answer:

Frequency of gamma rays is more than microwave.                

Explanation:

The number of vibrations per unit time is called frequency of a wave. The SI unit of frequency is Hertz. It is equal to s^{-1}.

The frequency of gamma rays is of the order of 10^{20}\ Hz. The frequency of microwave is of the order of 10^8\ Hz.

It is clear that gamma rays have more frequency that of the microwave.

Why can work be thought of as the transfer of energy? Please help it's physics
deff fn [24]
That is because work requires energy. According to the law of conservation of energy, it cannot be created or destroyed. When doing work, energy change forms and gets transferred to the object until it is released.
for example, when you lift up an object and place it on a higher elevation, you transferred energy to it and gave it potential energy. The potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy when the object falls down, and if it hits a surface, the energy will scatter, vibrating the areas around it and producing sound.
Also, work= force X distance. The energy does not go away, but rather get changed into some other form of energy

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

In the beginning, I was not familiar to assess assessments of the other students. Ifelt a little bit weird that is it possible to check assignments while having an instructor.I was also a bit frustrated, to be honest, that why do we have to assess thoseassessments. It was kind of extra burden for me. But after few weeks assessingmore assignments, my feeling had changed because I was learning lots of thingsthat were changing my perspectives. I was gaining extra knowledge from my peersin the form of assessments. Yes, I am comfortable with assessing assessments,because I got to learn many vocabularies and making structures of the sentencecorrectly by improving grammatically as I am not a native English speaker. Thus, inthis way, I was learning something new in each and every assessment.

A solenoid that is 78.8 cm long has a cross-sectional area of 15.9 cm2. There are 914 turns of wire carrying a current of 8.25 A
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

(a) Energy density will be equal to 57.31J/m^3

(b) Total energy will be equal to 0.0718 J

Explanation:

It is given that length of solenoid l = 78.8 cm = 0.788 m

Cross sectional area A=15.9cm^2=15.9\times 10^{-4}m^2

Number of turns of the wire N = 914

Current in the solenoid i = 8.25 A

Inductance of the wire is equal to L=\frac{\mu _0N^2A}{l}=\frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 914^2\times 15.9\times 10^{-4}}{0.788}=2.117\times 10^{-3}H

(b) Total energy stored in magnetic field U=\frac{1}{2}Li^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 2.11\times 10^{-3}\times 8.25^2=0.0718J

(a) Energy density will be equal to

U_b=\frac{0.0718}{15.9\times 10^{-4}\times 0.788}=57.31J/m^3
