Answer: The answer is "C"

Explanation:

The electromagnetic waves are arranged in the increasing wavelength and energy by the following order;

Radio waves has the lowest energy and wavelength but of the highest frequency.

The Infra-red rays follows the visible light follows, the ultraviolet ray follows, the X-ray follows and then the Gamma-ray has the highest energy and wavelength but the lowest frequency.

Therefore the answer is C, radio, infra, visible, ultraviolet, x-ray, gamma.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are categorized in terms of their wavelengths and frequency. This categorization is known as the Electromagnetic Spectrum.

When they are arranged in terms of increasing frequency, their wavelengths are decreasing. This is because wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional.

Since energy and frequency are directly proportional, increasing frequency would mean increasing energy.

In terms of increasing energy, the correct order is:

Radio waves

Infrared

Visible light

Ultraviolet

X rays

Gamma rays

A hill is 132 m long and makes an angle of 12.0 degrees with the horizontal. As a 54 kg jogger runs up the hill, how much work d
TEA [102]

Answer:

14523.55J

Explanation:

The work done by the jogger against gravity is given by the following equation;

W=mgh.................(1)

where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity taken as 9.8m/s^2 and h is the height of the hill.

Since the length of the hill is 132m and it is inclined at 12 degrees to the horizontal, the height is thus given as follows;

h=132sin12^o\\h=27.44m

Substituting this into equation (1) with all other necessary parameters, we obtain the following;

W=54*9.8*27.44\\W=14523.55J

Describe the shape of a convex lens and explain what it does to light.
alexira [117]
Convex lenses are thicker at the centers than the edges, they are known as the converging lenses. Rays of light that pass through the lens are brought closer together (they converge). When rays of light that are parallel pass through a convex lens they are refracted, the refracted rays converge at one point called the principal focus.
