Answer:
1. 31,536,000 seconds
2. Car B traveled a longer distance
3. Volume of box = 0.235887 cubic meters
Explanation:
Q1. Age in seconds
1 year = 365 days
1 day = 24 hours
1 hour = 60 minutes
1 minute = 60 seconds
Therefore 1 year = 365 x 24 x 60 x 60 = 31,536,000 seconds
In scientific notation this would be
Q2. Comparing km and miles
Given:
1 km = 1000m and 1 m = 3.3ft, I km = 1000 x 3.3 = 3300 ft.
Convert Car A distance of 25.7km to feet :
25.7 km. = 25. 7 x 3300 ft. = 84,810 ft.
For Car B that traveled 20 miles,
20 miles = 20 x 5280 = 105,600 ft.
Since 105,600 > 84,810, car B traveled a longer distance
Q3. Volume of wooden box
The wooden box is in the shape of a rectangular prism
It volume is L x W x H
Volume = 1.525 x 0.30 x 0.5156 = 0.235887 cubic meters
The shortest wavelength of visible light = violet light
Energy that can be felt as heat but not seen = infrared
Short, invisible rays that can cause eye damage = ultraviolet
Visible light with the longest wavelength = red light
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves are waves consisting of oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field, occurring in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.
They are the only type of waves able to travel without a medium, and they are transverse in nature.
All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum at the speed of light, which value is:
Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different classes, depending on their wavelength/frequency, and they have different properties. From shortest to longest wavelength (and from highest to lowest frequency), they are:
Gamma rays
X rays
Ultraviolet
Visible light
Infrared radiation
Microwaves
Radio waves
Moreover, the visible light of the spectrum is further divided into different colors, according to how our eye perceive them; from shortest to longest wavelength:
violet
blue
green
yellow
orange
red
Therefore, we have:
- The shortest wavelength of visible light is violet light, which has wavelength between 380 and 450 nm
- The longest wavelength of visible light is red light, which has wavelenght between 620 and 750 nm
- Infrared radiation is a type of radiation that is felt as heat by our body, however it cannot be seen because it falls outside the spectrum of visible light
- Ultraviolet radiation is also invisible to human eye; it has shorter wavelength than visible light and therefore it has more frequency (and more energy), therefore it can cause damage, especially to the eye
