Answer: On the basis of speed they are all equivalent.

Yellow light = Fm radio wave = Green light = X-ray = AM radio wave = Infrared wave

Explanation:

Yellow light, Fm radio wave, Green light ,X-ray, AM radio wave and Infrared wave are all electromagnetic waves, and all electromagnetic waves move at the same vacuum speed which is the speed of light and is approximately 3.0x10^8 m/s.

They only differ in wavelength and frequency

c = λf

c (speed of light) = λ (wavelength) x f (frequency)

Therefore; on the basis of speed they are all equivalent.

Yellow light = Fm radio wave = Green light = X-ray = AM radio wave = Infrared wave

sammy [17]

The particle is an electron. The field slows down the electron without deflecting it. The direction of the electric field is <u>right.</u>

In physics, the motion of electrically charged particles gives rise to a field called an electric field. It is measured in force per unit charge.

This field applies force on other charged particles.

Particles bearing opposite charges attract each other while particles having similar charges repel each other in the field.

If a positive charge is placed in the field then the field line moves in an outward direction and for a negative charge, the direction of the lines is inward.

PolarNik [594]

Complete Question

An oil tanker has collided with a smaller vessel, resulting in an oil spill in a large, calm-water bay of the ocean. You are investigating the environmental effects of the accident and need to know the area of the spill. The tanker captain informs you that 18000 liters of oil have escaped and that the oil has an index of refraction of n = 1.1. The index of refraction of the ocean water is 1.33. From the deck of your ship you note that in the sunlight the oil slick appears to be blue. A spectroscope confirms that the dominant wavelength from the surface of the spill is 485 nm. Assuming a uniform thickness, what is the largest total area oil slick

Answer:

The  largest total area of the oil slick  A = 8.257 *10^{9} \ m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The volume of oil the escaped is  V  = 18000 \ L

    The refractive index of oil is n_o = 1.1

     The refractive index of water is n_w = 1.33

      The wavelength of the light  is \lambda = 485 \ nm =  485 * 10^{-9} \ m

         

Generally the thickness of the oil for condition of constructive interference between the oil and the water is mathematically represented as

          d = m *\frac{\lambda}{2n_w}

Where is the order of interference of the light and it value ranges from 1, 2, 3,...n

It is usually take as 1 unless stated otherwise by the question

substituting value

      d = 1 * \frac{485 *10^{-9}}{2 * 1.1}    

      d = 218 nm    

The are can be mathematically evaluated as

        A = \frac{V}{d}

Substituting values

        A = \frac{18000}{218*10^{-8}}

        A = 8.257 *10^{9} \ m^2

7. Which law describes when a person lands on a
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Newton's Third Law

Explanation:

Newton's third law

Newton's third law: “for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” This is where you get the bounce. When you push down on the trampoline (or fall downward onto the trampoline bed), Newton's third law says that an equal and opposite reaction pushes back.
