Answer:

Red has the longest wavelength among all the visible colors of light.

Explanation:

Visible light is the only electromagnetic radiations which can be seen by human eye. When white visible light passes through a prism it breaks down into 7 distinctive colors of rainbow.

These are red, orange, yellow, green blue, indigo and violet.

Red has the longest wavelength of around 700 nano meters with violet has the shortest wavelength of 380 nano meters.

USPshnik [31]

No because an atom consists of two main parts and three subatomic particles - protons, neutrons, electrons. Each one is smaller than an atom, therefore they are subatomic particles. An atom only requires protons and electrons to be an atom - e.g. Hydrogen has 1 proton and 1 electron. Neutrons do not affect the overall charge of the atom, and only increase the atomic mass.

Two identical bowling balls are rolling on a horizontal floor without slipping. The initial speed of both balls is v = 10 m/s. B

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The difference between frictionless ramp and a regular ramp is that on a frictionless ramp the ball cannot roll it can only slide, but on a regular ramp the ball can roll without slipping.

We will use conversation of energy.

$K_A_1 + U_A_1 = K_A_2 + U_A_2\\\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0 = 0 + mgH_A$

Note that initial potential energy is zero because the ball is on the bottom, and the final kinetic energy is zero because the ball reaches its maximum vertical distance and stops.

For the ball B;

$K_B_1 + U_B_1 = K_B_2 + U_B_2$

$\frac{1}{2}I_B\omega^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0 = 0 + mgH_B$

The initial velocities of the balls are equal. Their maximum climbing point will be proportional to their final potential energy. Since their initial kinetic energies are equal, their final potential energies must be equal as well.

Hence, both balls climb the same point.

What are potential impacts of pollution on a watershed? Check all that apply.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

contaminated drinking water

deaths of sea creatures that are used as a food source

limits to potential economic activities such as a fishing

Explanation:

A watershed is a large area that comprises of drainage area of all the surrounding water bodies meeting at a common affluence point before draining into sea or ocean or any other large water body. Pollution in this area can pollute the small water streams flowing through it, thereby polluting the larger water body into which it drains.

Thus, the water extracted for drinking from such area will be contaminated. Pollution in larger water body can cause death of water creature and hence pose a threat to fishing.

calculate the mass of displaced water when a piece of 30cm Iceberg with surface area 1000 cm^2 floats on water density of ice is

sweet [91]

Vi = As * h = 1000 * 30 = 30,000 cm^3 = Vol. of the ice.

Vb = (Di/Dw) * Vi = (0.9/1.0) * 30,000 = 27,000 cm^3 = Vol. below surface - Vol. of water displaced.

27,000cm^3 * 1g/cm^3 = 27,000 grams = 27 kg = Mass of water displaced.
