Well, it is not ultraviolet rays and I highly doubt it is visible light. I would say gamma rays. Hope this helps! :)

<h2>Right answer: gamma rays</h2>

Currently, commercial nuclear reactors  in use work with nucler fission, which consists in the separation of the components of the atom nucleous. Normally, a large nucleus such as uranium is divided into two smaller nuclei by fission, along with a few neutrons and a release of energy in the form of heat (kinetic energy) and <u>gamma rays. </u>

In this sense, gamma rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation, and therefore constituted by photons, usually produced by radioactive elements. This type of radiation can travel long distances through the air and pass through various materials including the tissues of the human body, so that only large protections of lead or concrete can stop these rays.

You punt a ball straight up at 20 m/s. What is the balls hangtime
Natalija [7]

The hang time of the ball is 4.08 s

Explanation:

The ball is in free fall motion: this means that it is acted upon gravity only, so its acceleration is the acceleration of gravity,

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2

downward (the negative sign refers to the downward direction).

Since this is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

First we calculate the time it takes for the ball to reach the maximum height, where the velocity is zero:

v = 0

Substituting:

u = +20 m/s

a=-9.8 m/s^2

we find t

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-20}{-9.8}=2.04 s

The motion of the ball is symmetrical, so the total time of flight is just twice the time needed to reach the maximum height, therefore:

T=2t=2(2.04)=4.08 s

A 10.0-cm-long solenoid of diameter 0.400 cm is wound uniformly with 800 turns. A second coil with 50 turns is wound around the
levacccp [35]

Answer:

M = 6.32 x 10⁻⁶ H

Explanation:

given,

Length of solenoid = 10 cm = 0.1 m

diameter = 0.40 cm

radius = 0.2 cm = 0.002

number of turns, N₁ = 800

                            N₂ = 50

mutual inductance will be equal to  

     M = \dfrac{\mu_0N_1N_2A}{l}

     M = \dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 800\times 50 \times \pi \times (0.002)^2}{0.01}

           M = 6.32 x 10⁻⁶ H

hence, mutual inductance of the combination of two coil is equal to  M = 6.32 x 10⁻⁶ H

You cool a 130.0 g slug of red-hot iron (temperature 745 ∘C) by dropping it into an insulated cup of negligible mass containing
erik [133]

Answer:

A) 100°C

B) 211 g

Explanation:

Heat released by red hot iron to cool to 100°C = 130 x .45 x 645 [ specific heat of iron is .45 J /g/K]

= 37732.5 J

heat required by water to heat up to 100 °C = 85 x 4.2 x 80 = 28560 J

As this heat is less than the heat supplied by iron so equilibrium temperature will be 100 ° C. Let m g of water is vaporized in the process . Heat required for vaporization = m x 540x4.2  = 2268m J

Heat required to warm the water of 85 g to 100 °C = 85X4.2 X 80 = 28560 J

heat lost = heat gained

37732.5 = 28560 + 2268m

m = 4 g.

So  4 g of water will be vaporized and remaining 81 g of water and 130 g of iron that is total of 211 g will be in the cup . final temp of water will be 100 °C.

A capacitor with capacitance (c) = 4.50 μf is connected to a 12.0 v battery. what is the magnitude of the charge on each of the
svet-max [94.6K]

<u>Answer:</u> The charge on each plates is 54\mu C .

<u>Explanation:</u>

The magnitude of charge that flows through the plates is directly dependent on the capacitance and the voltage flowing through the plates.

Mathematically,

Q=CV

where,

Q = charge flowing = ? C

C = capacitance = 4.5\mu F=4.5\times 10^{-6}F    (Conversion Factor: 1\mu F=10^{-6}F)

V = Voltage across the plates = 12 V

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Q=4.5\times 10^{-6}F\times 12V=54\times 10^{-6}C=54\mu C

Hence, the charge on each plates is 54\mu C .
