<span>Each year, an average person in the United States is exposed to a radiation level of 360 mrem, which is the whole body equivalent dose from the background sources. Most of the radiation is the result from the natural sources. However, this value is also an indication of radiation caused by non-natural sources.</span>

Describe the relationship between the wavelength and frequency of electromagnetic waves

larisa [96]

Answer:

Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength.

Explanation:

frequency is the number of oscillations in a unit of time.

Wavelength is the length between one oscillation and the next oscillation.

take two springs and 4 pins. (springs should have loops or hooks at terminals to attach to pins.)

Now get two pins and pin them at a certain distance apart.

take the first spring and attach its two terminals to the pins.

Repeat the above procedure, but double (increase the distance x2) the distance between two pins.

Now you have to measure how many coils are there within 5cm of the two springs.

you'll observe that the second spring has half the coils of the first spring within 5cm.

In here no. of coils is the frequency

5cm length is time.

distance between coil is the wavelength.

A community lives in the desert near an area with high winds. There is very little rainfall or clouds, and no large rivers nearb

amid [387]

Solar power would, without doubt, be the most efficient type of power plant to build in this specific location. This is due to the fact that solar power produces no pollution in an environment. Also this type of alternative energy fits this communities resources due to the fact that the community receives primarily sun , a huge component in solar power, and little cloud coverage only increases the sun's power that much more. On the other hand, biomass needs things like wood, crops and alcohol fuels to burn in order to produce energy, some of which are not viable in this type of community because a place with little to no irrigation sources and an abundant amount of sunlight would be hard to produce any kind of natural aspect. Lastly, hydroelectric energy would not be a efficient of even viable choice because this community has no natural water available at hand to use for this alternative energy to function, and hydroelectric works primarily on a water storage.
