What part of the electromagnetic spectrum can be seen by humans

Physics
1 answer:
Amanda [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Visible light

Explanation:

Electromagnetic spectrum is the classification of the electromagnetic waves according to their frequency/wavelength. In order from the shortest to the longest wavelength, we have

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared

Microwaves

Radio waves

All these waves are invisible to human eye, except for the part referred as 'visible light'. The electromagnetic waves of this part of the spectrum are visible to human eye, and they appear as a different color depending on their wavelength. In particular, we have:

Violet: 380-450 nm

Blue: 450-495 nm

Green: 495-570 nm

Yellow: 570-590 nm

Orange: 590-620 nm

Red: 620-750 nm

According to the diagram, which color of visible light has the shortest wavelength?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Violet Light

Explanation:

On one end of the spectrum is red light, with the longest wavelength. Blue or violet light has the shortest wavelength. White light is a combination of all colors in the color spectrum. It has all the colors of the rainbow.

<h3><u>Given</u> :</h3>

Three identical resistors of resistances 5Ω, 10Ω and 30Ω are connected with a battery of 12V.

<h3><u>To Find</u> :</h3>

We have to find current through the each resistor and equivalent resistance of circuit.

<h3><u>SoluTion</u> :</h3>

➝ Equivalent resistance of series connection is given by

  • <u>R = R1 + R2 + R3</u>

➝ We know that, Equal current flow through each resistor in series connection.

➝ As per ohm's law, Current flow through a conductor is directly proportional to the applied potential difference.

  • <u>V = IR</u>

◈ <u>Equivalent resistance</u> :

⇒ Req = R1 + R2 + R3

⇒ Req = 5 + 10 + 30

⇒ <u>Req = 45Ω</u>

◈ <u>Current flow in circuit</u> :

⇒ V = IReq

⇒ 12 = I × 45

⇒ <u>I = 0.27A</u>

፨ Therefore, 0.27A current will flow through each resistor.

An electron is projected vertically upward with a speed of 1.70 ✕ 106 m/s into a uniform magnetic field of 0.320 t that is direc
Serggg [28]
The electron's path in the magnetic field is a straight line when viewed from above.

In fact, the electron initially moves upward, while the magnetic field is directed horizontally. The electron experiences a force due to the magnetic field (the Lorentz force), whose direction is given by the right-hand rule:
- index finger --> initial direction of the electron (upward)
- middle finger --> direction of the magnetic field (horizontally, away from the observer)
- opposite direction to the thumb* --> direction of the force (horizontally, but perpendicular to the magnetic field, to the right)

This means that the Lorentz force makes the electron moving perpendicular to the magnetic field in the horizontal plane, and since the direction of the field is not changing, this force does not change its direction, so the electron moves in the same direction of the force in the horizontal plane (to the right), therefore following a straight line.

* the direction should be reversed because the charge is negative.
