A. long-wave radiation occupies a smaller percentage than short-wave radiation
dezoksy [38]3 years ago
4 0
From the Electromagnetic Spectrum:

Radio, Micro wave, Infrared, Visible light, Ultra Violet, X rays, Y rays.

Only the Radio wave of wavelength 10³ m, has a positive power index, others have a negative exponent.

So these long waves form a smaller percentage.

Option A is correct. Others are not true.

An alpha particle (charge +2e) travels in a circular path of radius .5m in a magnetic field of 1.0 T. Find the (a) period, (b) s
navik [9.2K]

Given Information:

Radius = r = 0.5 m

Magnetic field = 1.0 T

Required Information:

Period = T = ?

Speed = v = ?

Kinetic energy = KE = ?

Answer:

Period = 0.13x10⁻⁶ seconds

speed = 24.16x10⁶ m/s

Kinetic energy = 12.11 MeV

Explanation:

(a) period

The time period of alpha particle is related to its orbital speed as

T = 2πr/v  eq. 1

According to newton's law

F = ma

Force due to magnetic field is given by

F = qvB

qvB = ma

qvB = m(v²/r)

qB = mv/r

v = qBr/m  eq. 2

substitute the eq. 2 in eq. 1

T = 2πr/qBr/m

r cancels out

T = 2π/qB/m

T = 2πm/qB

T = 2π*6.65x10⁻²⁷/2*1.602x10⁻¹⁹*1

T = 0.13x10⁻⁶ seconds

(b) speed

From equation 1

T = 2πr/v

v = 2πr/T

v = 2π*0.5/0.13x10⁻⁶

v = 24.16x10⁶ m/s

(c) kinetic energy (in electron volts)

Kinetic energy is given by

KE = 0.5mv²

KE = 0.5*6.65x10⁻²⁷*(24.16x10⁶)²

KE = 1.94x10⁻¹² J

since 1 electron volt has 1.602x10⁻¹⁹ J

KE = 1.94x10⁻¹²/1.602x10⁻¹⁹

KE = 12.11 MeV

A light beam travels through a diamond (n=2.42) to pure water (n=1.33). The refracted ray will:
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

b) bend away from the normal

Explanation:

According to snell's law , if i be the angle of incidence and r be the angle of refraction

sin i / sin r = 1.33 / 2.42

sin i / sin r = .55

Hence sin r > sin i

r > i

In other words angle of refraction will be more than angle of incidence . So, the ray will bend away from the normal .

Explain why air masses do not mix
kati45 [8]

 

Different densities have to have a reason - different pressure and/or humidity etc. If there is a different pressure, there is a mechanical force that preserves the pressure difference: think about the cyclones that have a lower pressure in the center. The cyclones rotate in the right direction and the cyclone may be preserved by the Coriolis force.

If the two air masses differ by humidity, the mixing will almost always lead to precipitation - which includes a phase transition for water etc. It's because the vapor from the more humid air mass gets condensed under the conditions of the other. You get some rain. In general, intense precipitation, thunderstorms, and other visible isolated weather events are linked to weather fronts.

At any rate, a mixing of two air masses is a nontrivial, violent process in general. That's why the boundary is called a "front". In the military jargon, a front is the contested frontier of a conflict. So your idea that the air masses could mix quickly and peacefully - whatever you exactly mean quantitatively - either neglects the inertia of the air, a relatively low diffusion coefficient, a low thermal conductivity, and/or high latent heat of water vapor. A front is something that didn't disappear within minutes so pretty much tautologically, there must be forces that make such a quick disappearance impossible.

If Jerome is swinging on a rope and transferring energy from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy, A)compression B)w
Gnesinka [82]
Salutations!

If Jerome is swinging on a rope and transferring energy from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy,  _______________ is being done.

<span>If Jerome is swinging on a rope and transferring energy from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy, work is being done. Energy being transferred and the object begins to move is called work.

Thus, your answer is option B.

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!</span>
