What's the difference between electromagnetic waves and electromagnetic spectrum?

Physics
1 answer:
White raven [17]3 years ago
4 0
The difference between the two is, well for one

Spectrum: The entire range that the "<em>waves" </em>could be such, as visible light, x-ray's and so on.

Waves: These are different because they aren't telling you or showing the entire spectrum just which they length that they are.

A 300-n force acts on a 25-kg object. the acceleration of the object is?
Over [174]
To solve the answer use the equation: a = fnet / m

a = 300 N / 25 kg

300 N / 25 kg = 12m/s

The acceleration of the object is 12m/s

A wave along a guitar string has a frequency of 540 Hz and a wavelength of 4.3 m. Calculate the velocity of the wave.
Virty [35]

Answer:

Velocity of wave =  2322 m /sec

Explanation:

We know that, Velocity of wave v = n  λ

Given, n = 540 Hz,  λ=4.3 m , v = ?

Putting the value of n and λ

Velocity of wave = 540 x 4.3 = 2322 m /sec

An automobile traveling 95 km/h overtakes a 1.30-km-long train traveling in the same direction on a track parallel to the road.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: 6.175 km

Explanation:

from the question, we have the following

velocity of the automobile = 95 km/g

velocity of the train = 75 km/h

length of the train = 1.30 km

since the automobile and the train are moving in the same direction, we need to find the velocity of the car relative to the train which will be their difference in speed = 95 - 75 = 20 km/h

we need to find the time it takes the automobile to overtake the train using the formula time = distance / speed , with the distance being the length of the train.

time (t) = 1.3 / 20

= 0.065 hour

now we can find the distance traveled by the automobile using the the time taken for it to overtake the train and the speed of the automobile.

therefore, distance = speed x time

     distance = 95 x 0.065 =6.175 km

Estimate how long it would take one person to mow a football field using an ordinary home lawn mower. Assume the mower moves wit
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

t = 11.9 h = 0.49 day

Explanation:

First of all, we will find the area covered by the mower per unit time:

Rate\ of\ Area\ Covered\ by\ Mower = vw

where,

v = speed of mower = 1 km/h = 1000 m/h

w = width of mower = 0.6 m

Therefore,

Rate\ of\ Area\ Covered\ by\ Mower = (1000\ m/h)(0.6\ m)\\Rate\ of\ Area\ Covered\ by\ Mower = 600\ m^{2}/h

Now, the standard football ground has an area of:

A = 105 m x 68 m = 7140 m²

Therefore, The time required to mow the lawn will be:

Time\ to\ Mow\ the\ Lawn = t = \frac{A}{Rate\ of\ Area\ Covered\ by\ Mower}\\t = \frac{7140\ m^{2}}{600\ m^{2}/h}

<u>t = 11.9 h = 0.49 day</u>
