Electromagnetic spectrum consists of
Radio waves
Microwaves
Infrared
Visible light
Ultraviolet
X-ray
Gamma ray

We use these everyday in our life however they also have dangers.

Radio waves - their long wavelength allows them to help with communication
Danger - exposure to a lot of radio waves can cause cancer or leukaemia

Microwaves - used for heating up food and transferring heat to the food.
Dangers - exposure can cause cancers and other diseases.

Infrared - can be used for remote controls and security cameras.
Danger - can cause damage to the cornea in your eye

Visible light - used for photography and optical fibres.
Danger - intense sources can cause permanent or temporary damage to the eyesight.

Ultraviolet - can be used to sterilise food and sterilise surgical equipment.
Danger - can cause skin damage and may lead to a cancer.

X-rays - used to see the internal structure of tissues and bones.
Dangers - can lead to mutations and May damage the cells

Gamma- can be used to sterilise food and surgical equipment and kill microorganisms and other bacteria.
Dangers - May reach your cells and cause cancer and cell mutations which could result in mutations.

What fundamental frequency would you expect from blowing across the top of an empty soda bottle that is 24 cm deep
kari74 [83]

Answer:

708.3 Hz

Explanation:

For an open-air column, like the empty can, the fundamental frequency is given by

f_1 = \frac{v}{2L}

where

v = 340 m/s is the speed of sound

L is the length of the column

In this problem, the length of the bottle is

L = 24 cm = 0.24 m

Therefore, the fundamental frequency is

f_1 = \frac{340 m/s}{2(0.24 m)}=708.3 Hz

Calculate the amount of hcn that gives the lethal dose in a small laboratory room measuring 14 × 15 × 8.0ft. the density of air
vova2212 [387]
Since we are given the density and volume, then perhaps we can determine the amount in terms of the mass. All we have to do is find the volume in terms of cm³ so that it will cancel out with the cm³ in the density. The conversion is 1 ft = 30.48 cm. The solution is as follows:

V = (14 ft)(15 ft)(8 ft)(30.48 cm/1 ft)³ = 0.0593 cm³

The mass is equal to:
Mass = (0.00118g/cm³)(0.0593 cm³)
Mass = 7 grams of HCN

Examine the reactants of the incomplete double displacement reaction.
Bumek [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

AgCl + NaNO₃

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The reaction between silver nitrate and sodium chloride is an example of a double displacement reaction.
  • In a double displacement reaction compounds or salts reacts and exchange cations or anions to form new compounds or salts.
  • In this case, silver nitrate and sodium chloride exchange anions and cations to form silver chloride and sodium nitrate.
  • Therefore, the complete reaction is given by;

AgNO3 + NaCl → AgCl + NaNO₃

  • But since silver chloride is a precipitate, the reaction may also be an example of a precipitation reaction.
