What is the unit for magnitudes in astronomy?

Isla made a diagram to compare X-rays and radio waves.

pickupchik [31]

A: Has a higher frequency --> X-rays

B: Travels at the same speed --> Both

C: Has a longer wavelength --> Radio waves

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves consisting of oscillations of electric and magnetic field in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave.

Electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light ( $c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$ ) in a vacuum, and they are transverse in nature (the direction of vibration is perpendicular to the direction of propagation).

Electromagnetic waves are classified into different types according to their wavelength and frequency. In order from shortest to longest wavelength (and so, from highest to lowest frequency, since frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength), we have:

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet radiation

Visible light

Infrared radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves

Therefore, we can no says that:

X-rays: has a higher frequency than Radio waves

Radio waves: have a longer wavelength than x-rays

Both: they travel at the same speed

Therefore, the correct pairing is:

A: Has a higher frequency --> X-rays

B: Travels at the same speed --> Both

C: Has a longer wavelength --> Radio waves

(b) Find a point between the two charges on the horizontal line where the electric potential is zero. (Enter your answer as meas

aleksley [76]

Complete Question: A charge q1 = 2.2 uC is at a distance d= 1.63m from a second charge q2= -5.67 uC. (b) Find a point between the two charges on the horizontal line where the electric potential is zero. (Enter your answer as measured from q1.)

Answer:

d= 0.46 m

Explanation:

The electric potential is defined as the work needed, per unit charge, to bring a positive test charge from infinity to the point of interest.

For a point charge, the electric potential, at a distance r from it, according to Coulomb´s Law and the definition of potential, can be expressed as follows:

V = $\frac{k*q}{r}$

We have two charges, q₁ and q₂, and we need to find a point between them, where the electric potential due to them, be zero.

If we call x to the distance from q₁, the distance from q₂, will be the distance between both charges, minus x.

So, we can find the value of x, adding the potentials due to q₁ and q₂, in such a way that both add to zero:

V = $\frac{k*q1}{x}$ + $\frac{k*q2}{(1.63m-x)}$ = 0

⇒ $k*q1* (1.63m - x) = -k*q2*x$ :

Replacing by the values of q1, q2, and k, and solving for x, we get:

⇒ x = (2.22 μC* 1.63 m) / 7.89 μC = 0.46 m from q1.

PLEASE HELP ME,, I WOULD BE SO HAPPY

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Energy is force times distance. For your problem, no matter how long you push, the wall still goes nowhere, so there is no obvious energy transfer. so in conclusion, you actually didn't do anything :(

Explaining How Momentum Can Cause

Ghella [55]

Answer:

The astronaut can throw the hammer in a direction away from the space station. While he is holding the hammer, the total momentum of the astronaut and hammer is 0 kg • m/s. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum after he throws the hammer must still be 0 kg • m/s. In order for momentum to be conserved, the astronaut will have to move in the opposite direction of the hammer, which will be toward the space station.
