Answer:

Wavelength of Radio wave = 10² meter = 100 meters, frequency 10 power 6 htz,

Wavelength of gamma ray = 10 power -12 meters = 0.000000000002 meters, frequency 10 power 20 htz

Answer:

Hydrogen

Explanation:

Balloons are filled with light gases in order to make them float. Helium and Hydrogen are both light gases.

Helium is quite a lot lighter than air: it's about an eighth of the density of air. Hydrogen is about a sixteenth the density of air, so it'll float in air and will in fact float upwards.

Hydrogen however is twice as heavy as helium, but that doesn't mean the amount of lift off of the balloon is twice as much. The amount of lift is determined by the difference in density with respect to air.

Hydrogen is calculated to be less dense than helium, that explains why hydrogen filled balloons would go up higher.

Helium filled balloons are used because of the safety implications. The problem is that hydrogen is explosive may have some health and safety implications! Helium is much more safe to use.

A silver cube with an edge length of 2.38 cm and a gold cube with an edge length of 2.79 cm are both heated to 81.9 ∘C and place

never [62]

Answer:

The final temperature of the water when thermal equilibrium is reached is 23.54 ⁰C

Explanation:

Given data;

edge length of silver, a = 2.38 cm = 0.0238 m

edge length of gold, a = 2.79 cm = 0.0279 m

final temperature of silver, t = 81.9 ° C

final temperature of Gold, t = 81.9 ° C

initial temperature of water, t = 19.6 ° C

volume of water, v = 109.5 mL = 0.0001095 m³

Known data:

density gold 19300 kg/m³

density silver 10490 kg/m³

density water 1000 kg/m³

specific heat gold is 129 J/kgC

specific heat silver is 240 J/kgC

specific heat water is 4200 J/kgC

Calculated data

Apply Pythagoras theorem to determine the side of each cube;

Silver cube;

let L be the side of the silver cube

Taking the cross section of the cube (form a right angled triangle), the edge length forms the hypotenuse side.

L² + L² = 0.0238²

2L² = 0.0238²

L² = 0.0238² / 2

L² = 0.00028322

L = √0.00028322

L = 0.0168

Volume of cube = L³

Volume of the silver cube = (0.0168)³ = 4.742 x 10⁻⁶ m³

Gold cube;

let L be the side of the gold cube

L² + L² = 0.0279²

2L² = 0.0279²

L² = 0.0279² / 2

L² = 0.0003892

L = √0.0003892

L = 0.0197

Volume of cube = L³

Volume of the silver cube = (0.0197)³ = 7.645 x 10⁻⁶ m³

Mass of silver cube;

density = mass / volume

mass = density x volume

mass of silver cube = 10490 (kg/m³) x 4.742 x 10⁻⁶ (m³) = 0.0497 kg

Mass of Gold cube

mass of gold cube = 19300 (kg/m³) x 7.645 x 10⁻⁶ (m³) = 0.148 kg

Mass of water

mass of water = 1000 (kg/m³) x 0.0001095 (m³) = 0.1095 kg

Let the heat gained by cold water be Q₁

Let the heat lost by silver cube = Q₂

Let the heat lost by gold cube = Q₃

Let the final temperature of water = T

Q₁ = 0.1095 kg x 4200 J/kgC x (T–19.6)

Q₂ = 0.0497 kg x 240 J/kgC x (81.9–T)

Q₃ = 0.148 kg x 129 J/kgC x (81.9–T)

At thermal equilibrium;

Q₁ = Q₂ + Q₃

0.1095 x 4200 (T–19.6) = 0.0497 x 240 x (81.9–T) + 0.148 x 129 x (81.9–T)

459.9 (T–19.6) = 11.928 (81.9–T) + 19.092(81.9–T)

459.9T - 9014.04 = 976.9032 - 11.928T + 1563.6348 - 19.092T

459.9T + 11.928T + 19.092T = 9014.04 + 976.9032 + 1563.6348

490.92T = 11554.578

T = 11554.578 / 490.92

T = 23.54 ⁰C

Therefore, the final temperature of the water when thermal equilibrium is reached is 23.54 ⁰C
