Which wave has a higher frequency than microwaves but lower frequency than UV waves?

Physics
1 answer:
Effectus [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Infrared

Visible light

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves consisting of oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave.

Electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum at the speed of light, which is a constant value:

c=3.00\cdot 10^8 m/s

Also, electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types, depending on their wavelength and frequency. From highest to lowest frequency, we have:

gamma-rays 10^{20}-10^{24} Hz

x-rays 10^{17}-10^{20}Hz

ultraviolet 10^{15}-10^{17} Hz

visible [4-7.5]\cdot 10^{14} Hz

infrared      10^{14} Hz

microwaves 10^{11}-10^{13} Hz

radio waves

Therefore, from the table we see that both infrared and visible light have higher frequency than microwaves, but lower frequency than UV (ultraviolet).

makkiz [27]

electromagnetic spectrum is consisting of many frequency range which is from gamma rays to radio waves

they are of various wavelength and different energy levels

minimum wavelength will occurs at Gamma rays

and maximum wavelength at Radio waves

the list of increasing order of wavelength is as following

Gamma rays < X rays < Ultraviolet < Visible Light < Infrared Waves < Radio Waves

so least to maximum order is

1. Gamma rays

2. X rays

3 Ultraviolet

4 Visible light

5 Infrared waves

6 Radio waves

Of the following, which is the best reason for why a woman's risk for cardiovascular disease increases after menopause?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The best reason for the increased risk of cardiovascular diseases in women after menopause is the significant decrease in the levels of Estrogen in the body.

Detailed answer:

  • Due to the approach of menopause the estrogen levels in the blood decrease drastically.
  • Estrogen helps in relaxing the vessels and keeping them in their natural diameter.
  • But due to a drastic decrease in its level due to menopause, there is a high chance of cholesterol building up on the walls of the artery in the heart, which can cause many cardiovascular diseases.

An electric fan is turned off, and its angular velocity decreases uniformly from 500 rev/min to 200 rev/min in 4.00 s.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

a) -1.25 rev/s² and 23.3 rev

b)  2.67s

Explanation:

a) ωФ_o_z = (500 rev/min)(1min/ 60s) => 8.333 rev/s

ωФ_Z= (200 rev/min)(1min/ 60s) => 3.333rev/s

time 't'= 4 s

angular acceleration 'αФ_Z'=?

constant angular acceleration equation is given by,

ωФ_Z= ωФ_o_z + αФ_Zt

αФ_Z= (ωФ_Z - ωФ_o_z )/t => (3.333-8.333)/4

αФ_Z= -1.25 rev/s²

θ-θФ_o = ωФ_o_z t + 1/2αФ_Zt²

      =(8.333)(4) + 1/2 (-1.25)(4)²

      =23.3 rev

b) ωФ_Z=0   (comes to rest)

ωФ_o_z = 3.333 rev/s

αФ_Z= -1.25 rev/s²

ωФ_Z= ωФ_o_z + αФ_Zt

t= (ωФ_Z - ωФ_o_z)/αФ_Z => (0- 3.333)/-1.25

t= 2.67s
