Answer:

 a = 1,008 10⁻³ m / s²

Explanation:

For this exercise, let's use the kinematic relations of accelerated motion

           v² = v₀² - 2 a x

The negative sign is because the acceleration is opposite to the speed, the final speed is zero

          0 = v₀² - 2 a x

          a = v₀² / 2x

   Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

          x = 2.4mm (1m / 10³mm) = 2.4 10⁻³m

Let's calculate

         a = 2.2²/2 2.4 10⁻³

        a = 1,008 10⁻³ m / s²

Which of the following statements about X-rays and radio waves is not true? Which of the following statements about X-rays and r
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

X-rays travel through space faster than radio waves.

Explanation:

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

All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, the speed of light, whose value is:

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s

Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types, according to their wavelength/frequency. From shortest to longest wavelength (and so, from highest to lowest frequency), we have:

Gamma rays

X rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves

Now we can analyze the 4 statements:

X-rays and radio waves are both forms of light, or electromagnetic radiation --> TRUE. They are both types of electromagnetic waves.

X-rays have higher frequency than radio waves. --> TRUE, as we can see from the table above.

X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio waves. --> TRUE, as we can see from the table above.

X-rays travel through space faster than radio waves. --> FALSE: all electromagnetic waves travel in space at the same speed, the speed of light.

How are meteors and meteorites different?
konstantin123 [22]

A meteor is the flash of light that we see in the night sky when a small chunk of interplanetary debris burns up as it passes through our atmosphere. "Meteor" refers to the flash of light caused by the debris, not the debris itself.

If any part of a meteoroid survives the fall through the atmosphere and lands on Earth, it is called a meteorite.

The decomposition of ammonia to the elements is a first-order reaction with a half-life of 200 s at a certain temperature. How l
Feliz [49]

Based on the half-life of the reaction, time taken for the partial pressure of ammonia to decrease from 0.100 atm to 0.00625 atm is 800 seconds.

<h3>What is the half-life of a substance?</h3>

The half-life of a substance is the time taken for half the amount of atoms present in that substance to decay.

The half-life of the reaction is 200 seconds.

After, one half-life, pressure reduces to 0.0500 atm

After, two half-lives, pressure reduces to 0.0250 atm

After, three half-lives, pressure reduces to 0.01250 atm

After, four half-lives, pressure reduces to 0.00625 atm

Time taken = 4 * 200 = 800 seconds

Therefore, time taken for the partial pressure of ammonia to decrease from 0.100 atm to 0.00625 atm is 800 seconds.
