Physics
1 answer:
Harman [31]3 years ago
5 0

<u>Complete Question:</u>

Which of the following electromagnetic waves carries the highest  energy, and are most damaging to human?

A. Gamma Rays

B. Microwave

C. Radio-wave

D. Alpha Rays

<u>Correct Option:</u>

Gamma Rays carries the highest  energy, and are most damaging to human.

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The waves of light and other forms of energy that radiate or travel from where they are originated is understood as electromagnetic radiation, and collectively represent electromagnetic spectrum. The gamma rays are dangerous sources of radiation with high energy. Its standard size is 0.000001 nm i.e. size of atomic nucleus diameter. It results from the degradation of atomic nuclei by radioactive means. It is made up of the smallest electromagnetic wavelength, and thus provides the highest photon energy.

Answer:

(A) Series and Parallel

Explanation:

Circuit Component: These are electrical devices that makes up the circuit. They include, resistors, capacitors, inductors, voltmeters, ammeters, cell/batteries, earth connection, bulb, switch, connecting wire etc.

These component can either be connected in series or in parallel.

(1) Series Connection: This can be refered as end to end connection of electric component.

(2) Paralel Connection: This can be refered as the side to side connection of electric component.

From the question above,

A electric component in a circuit can be combined in series and in parallel.

The right option is (A) Series and Parallel

Gina applied 1,780 J of work to move a sofa 3.8 meters. What amount of force did she exert?
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

468.42N

Explanation:

Here,

Work done(W)=1780J

Displacement(s)=3.8m

As we have,

Work=Force×displacement

Now,

\hookrightarrow 1780J=F\times3.8m\\\\\hookrightarrow \frac{1780J}{3.8m} =F\\\\\hookrightarrow F=468.42N

Gwar [14]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

the north end to the south end.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Magnetic field lines from a bar magnet form lines that are closed. The direction of magnetic field is taken to be outward from the North pole of the magnet and in to the South pole of the magnet.
  • A magnetic field refers to  the area surrounding a magnet where a force is exerted on certain objects. These lines are spread out of the north end of the magnet.
  • The magnetic field lines resemble a bubble.

During a 40-mile trip, Marla traveled at an average speed of x miles per hour for the first y miles of the trip and at an averag
Ilya [14]

Answer:

\dfrac{32+0.2y}{40}

Explanation:

Total =40 miles.

y miles at x miles/hr.

40- y miles at 1.25 x miles/hr.\

We know that

Distance = time x velocity

For y miles

Lets time taken to cover y miles is t

y = x t

t=y/x                -----------1

For 40- y

Lets time taken to cover 40- y is t'

40- y = 1.25 x t'  

t'=(40-y)/1.25x           -----------2

By adding both equation

t+t'=y/x  + (40-y)/1.25x

t+t'=(32+0.2y)/x

Now lets time T taken by Marla if she will travel at x miles per hr for entire trip.

40 = x T

T=40/x

So

\dfrac{t+t'}{T}=\dfrac{32+0.2y}{40}

To find numerical value of above expression we have to know the value of y.
