Answer:

Alpha is the least penetrating radiation listed below.

Gamma is the most penetrating radiation in the given list.

These rays can be used to detect cancer, sterilizing the medical instrument, smoke detector, etc.

Radiation emitted from the radioactive elements also have very harmful. They affect the living being a lot. Waste from the nuclear reactor also contains harmful radiation which causes Land pollution if not disposed of properly.

If you double the wavelength, the electromagnetic radiation energy will double. The energy of the electromagnetic radiation will
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

It's energy will double.

Explanation:

This is because energy, E, is related to frequency, f, by:

E = hf

Where h = Planck's constant

So, double frequency will be 2f

=> E(2f) = 2hf = 2E.

Hence, energy is doubled.

Four identical metallic spheres with charges of +8.2 µC, +9.0 µC, −7.8 µC, and −8.8 µC are placed on a piece of paper. The paper
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

a) 0.15 μC b) 9.4*10¹¹ electrons.

Explanation:

As the total charge must be conserved, the total charge on the spheres, after being brought to contact each other, and then separated, must be equal to the total charge present in the spheres prior to be put in contact:

Q = +8.2μC +9.0 μC +(-7.8 μC) + (-8.8 μC) = +0.6 μC

As the spheres are assumed perfect conductors, as they are identical, once in contact each other, the excess charge spreads evenly on each sphere, so the final charge, on each of them, is just the fourth part of the total charge:

Qs = Qt/4 = 0.6 μC / 4 = 0.15 μC.

b) As the charge has a positive sign, this means that each sphere has a defect of electrons.

In order to know how many electrons are absent in each sphere, we can divide the total charge by the charge of one electron, which is the elementary charge e, as follows:

N =\frac{0.15e-6C}{1.6e-19C}  = 9.4e11  electrons
