Alex3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Radio Wave

Micro Wave

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves composed by the perpendicular oscillating electric and magnetic fields.

EM waves have both Electrical and magnetic features.

they travel in the velocity of light (3*10⁸ ms⁻¹)

Electromagnetic spectrum is obtained according to their wave length and the frequency. Due to wave length range it's categorized. Here is the decreasing  order of wave length and increasing order  of different wave types in electromagnetic spectrum

  • Radio Wave
  • Micro Wave
  • IR wave
  • Light Wave
  • UV rays
  • X rays
  • Gamma rays
  • Cosmic rays

The "steam" above a freshly made cup of instant coffee is really water vapor droplets condensing after evaporating from the hot
KiRa [710]

Answer:

T_{f} = 85.7 ° C

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the calorimetry heat ratios, let's start with the heat lost by the evaporation of coffee, since it changes from liquid to vapor state

      Q₁ = m L

Where m is the evaporated mass (m = 2.00 103-3kg) and L is 2.26 106 J / kg, where we use the latent heat of the water

     Q₁ = 2.00 10⁻³ 2.26 10⁶

     Q1 = 4.52 10³ J

Now the heat of coffee in the cup, which does not change state is

     Q coffee = M c_{e} ( T_{f} -T_{i})

Since the only form of energy transfer is terminated, the heat transferred is equal to the evaporated heat

    Qc = - Q₁

    M ce (T_{f} -T_{i}) = - Q₁

The coffee dough left in the cup after evaporation is

    M = 250 -2 = 248 g = 0.248 kg

   T_{f} -Ti = -Q1 / M c_{e}

   T_{f} = Ti - Q1 / M c_{e}

Since coffee is essentially water, let's use the specific heat of water,

    c_{e}= 4186 J / kg ºC

Let's calculate

     T_{f} = 90.0 - 4.52 103 / (0.248 4.186 103)

     T_{f} = 90- 4.35

     T_{f} = 85.65 ° C

     T_{f} = 85.7 ° C

A particle with charge 7.76×10^(−8)C is moving in a region where there is a uniform 0.700 T magnetic field in the +x-direction.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The  z-component of the force is  \= F_z  =  0.00141 \ N    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

          The charge on the particle is q =  7.76 *0^{-8} \  C    

           The magnitude of the magnetic field is  B =  0.700\r i \ T

            The  velocity of the particle toward the x-direction is  v_x  =  -1.68*10^{4}\r  i  \ m/s

           The  velocity of the particle toward the y-direction is

v_y  =  -2.61*10^{4}\ \r j  \ m/s

           The  velocity of the particle toward the z-direction is

v_y  =  -5.85*10^{4}\ \r k  \ m/s

Generally the force on this particle is mathematically represented as

          \= F  =  q (\= v   X  \= B )

So  we have    

          \= F  =  q ( v_x \r  i + v_y \r  j  +  v_z \r k  )  \ \ X \ (  \= B i)

         \= F  = q (v_y B(-\r  k) + v_z B\r j)      

  substituting values

       \= F  = (7.7 *10^{-8})([ (-2.61*10^{4}) (0.700)](-\r  z) + [(5.58*10^{4}) (0.700)]\r y)    

      \= F=  0.00303\ \r j +0.00141\ \r k                  

So the z-component of the force is  \= F_z  =  0.00141 \ N

The energy of a photon was found to be 3.38 x 10-19 J. Planck's constant is 6.63 x 10-34 J. S. Which color of light corresponds
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

The correct option is (c).

Explanation:

Given that,

The energy of a photon is, E=3.38\times 10^{-19}\ J

We need to tell the color of this light. We know that, the energy of a photon is given by :

E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

Where

c is the speed of light

\lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{3.38 \times 10^{-19}}\\\\\lambda=5.88\times 10^{-7}\ m\\\\\lambda=588\ nm

The wavelength of yellow light is approx 580 nm. Hence, we can say that this photon corresponds to yellow light.

How much heat energy is required to raise the temperature of 0.368kg of copper from 23.0 ∘C to 60.0 ∘C? The specific heat of cop
Katarina [22]
The change in temperature here corresponds to a sensible heat. The amount of energy required can be calculated by multiplying the specific heat capacity, the amount of the substance and the corresponding change in temperature.

Heat required = mCΔT
Heat required = 0.368 kg (0.0920 cal/g°C) (60 - 23)°C
Heat required = 1.25 cal
