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.

A uniform plank of weight 100 N is 2000 mm long and rests on a support that is 400 mm from end E. At what distance from E must a
yan [13]

Answer:

the location of 160 N from end E is 25mm

Explanation:

given:

A uniform plank of weight 100 N is 2000 mm long

and rests on a support that is 400 mm from end E

find:

At what distance from E must a 160 N weight be placed in order to balance the plank?

                                                                      160 N

                                                                           |---x--->|

                                      100N                           \|/

======================||======================E

                                                            Δ---- 400mm---->|

|<----------------------------  2000mm   --------------------------->|

to determine the location of 160N load in order to balance the plank,

you have to take moment at support Δ.

note:

the 100 N is located at the center of a plank.

the distance of 100N from support = (2000 / 2) - 400 = 600mm

∑moment at Δ = 0

0 = -100 N (600mm) + 160 N (400-x)

0 = -60000 N.mm + 64000 N.mm - 160x N.mm

0 = 4000 - 160x

160x = 4000

x = 4000/160

x = 25 mm

therefore,

the location of 160 N from end E is 25mm

This is “Fusion Reactions”.<br> Please answer number 8. Thank you.
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

²₁H + ³₂He —> ⁴₂He + ¹₁H

Explanation:

From the question given above,

²₁H + ³₂He —> __ + ¹₁H

Let ⁿₐX be the unknown.

Thus the equation becomes:

²₁H + ³₂He —> ⁿₐX + ¹₁H

We shall determine, n, a and X. This can be obtained as follow:

For n:

2 + 3 = n + 1

5 = n + 1

Collect like terms

n = 5 – 1

n = 4

For a:

1 + 2 = a + 1

3 = a + 1

Collect like terms

a = 3 – 1

a = 2

For X:

n = 4

a = 2

X =?

ⁿₐX => ⁴₂X => ⁴₂He

Thus, the balanced equation is

²₁H + ³₂He —> ⁴₂He + ¹₁H

9.1 x 105 – 7.2 x 105<br> =
Maslowich

Answer:

1.9 x 10⁵

Explanation:

I <em>ASSUME </em>your question is supposed to read

9.1 x 10⁵ – 7.2 x 10⁵ =

9.1 - 7.2 = 1.9 and the powers are the same so just tag them along

its the same as

910000 - 720000 = 190000

1.9 x 105 could be another possibility if the question is actually posed correctly.

A regulation soccer field for international play is a rectangle with a length between 100 m and a width between 64 m and 75 m. W
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The smallest and largest areas could be 6400 m and 7500 m, respectively.

Explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by:

A = l*w

Where:

l: is the length = 100 m

w: is the width

We can calculate the smallest area with the lower value of the width.

A_{s} = 100 m*64 m = 6400 m^{2}                            

And the largest area is:

A_{l} = 100 m*75 m = 7500 m^{2}  

Therefore, the smallest and largest areas could be 6400 m and 7500 m, respectively.            

I hope it helps you!
