X-rays and gamma rays are the only electromagnetci waves with a shorter wavelength, gamma rays being the smallest. Hope this helps ;)
Answer:
Explain why it is not advisable to sterilise a clinical thermometer on boiling water at normal atmospheric temperature. A clinical thermometer has small temperature range. The glass will crack/burst due to excessive pressure created by expansion of mercury.
The correct answer is A. 250N
Work is a product of force and distance.
That is, work done=force×distance
Therefore substituting for the values in the question:
500J=force×2m
force= 500Nm/2m=250N
another unit for work done is Nm as force as the SI unit of force is newtons and distance in meters
The equator is warmer than the poles because the equator is closer to the sun. In other words, the sun is overhead the equator, which is a result of the Earth's curvature.
Answer:
Ultraviolet wave
Explanation:
Ultraviolet waves would be best used to sterilize a surface expose to bacteria because it will completely destroy them.
Most medical equipment are usually sanitized by using this rays because the DNA of most bacteria can be innervated upon exposure to these ray.
Ultraviolet rays are energetic and more powerful than the normal visible light and subsequent long wavelength radiations.
Generally, ultraviolet rays is a very harmful electromagnetic radiation.
