From largest to shortest wavelength:

Radio waves, Microwaves, Infrared radiation, Red visible, Orange visible, Yellow visible, Green visible, Blue visible, Violet visible, Ultraviolet, X-rays, Gamma rays

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.

Electromagnetic waves are the only type of waves able to travel in a vacuum, and in a vacuum they always at the same speed, the speed of light, equal to:

$c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$

Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types, according to their wavelength/frequency. From slongest to shortest wavelength, they are ranked as follows:

Radio waves

Microwaves

Infrared radiation

Visible light

Ultraviolet

X-rays

Gamma rays

Visible light is the only part of the spectrum that the human eye is able to see. Depending on the wavelength of the visible light, we perceive the radiation as a different color. In order from longest to shortest wavelength, colors are:

Red

Orange

Yellow

Green

Blue

Indigo

Violet

Therefore, the correct order from largest to shortest wavelength in the given list is:

Radio waves

Microwaves

Infrared radiation

Red visible

Orange visible

Yellow visible

Green visible

Blue visible

Violet visible

Ultraviolet

X-rays

Gamma rays

A small block with mass 0.0400 kg slides in a vertical circle of radius 0.600 m on the inside of a circular track. During one of

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

The mass of the body is 0.04kg

M=0.04kg

The radius of the paths is 0.6m

r=0.6m

The normal force exerted at A is 3.9N

Fa=3.9N

The normal force exerted at B is 0.69N

Fb=0.69N

Then work done by friction from point A to B will be the change in K.E

W=∆K.E+P.E

So we need to know the velocity at both point A and B

Then since the centripetal force is given as

Ft=mv²/r

Then,

For point A

Fa=mv²/r

3.9=0.04v²/0.6

3.9=0.0667v²

v²=3.9/0.0667

v²=58.5

v=√58.5

v=7.65m/s

Va=7.65m/s

Now at point B

Fb=mv²/r

0.69=0.04v²/0.6

0.69=0.0667v²

v²=0.69/0.0667

v²=10.35

v=√10.35

v=3.22m/s

Vb=3.22m/s

Then, the work done is

W=∆K.E+P.E

P.E is given as mgh

The height will be 2R =1.2m

P.E=mgh

P.E=0.04×9.81×1.2

P.E=0.471J

Final kinetic energy at B minus initial kinetic energy at A

W=K.Eb-K.Ea

K.E is given as 1/2mv²

W=1/2m(Vb²-Va²) +P.E

W=0.5×0.04(3.22²-7.65²) +0.471

W=0.5×0.04×(-48.1541) +0.471

W=-0.96+0.471

W=-0.49J

work was done on the block by friction during the motion of the block from point A to point B is 0.49J.

Friction opposes motions and that is why the work done is negative

How do media literacy , information literacy and technology literacy and media and information literacy differ in terms of use?

Otrada [13]

Answer:

Media literacy creates a conscious awareness, the ability to understand, analyze, the messages various media like the newspapers, the radio, that is for the consumer, and it also promotes how best media create information for production.

While information literacy and technology literacy differs from other literacy asked in the question above, as information literacy and technology could be used when describing getting information through adequate research and further dishing out this available information so as to effectively use the information with the aim to solve problems, create awareness, or educate, through technologies such as for example, email.

Lastly, media and information literacy differ in terms of use from the other two explained above, as media and information literacy describes discerning information credibility, accuracy, and objectivity of sources they come from, and it shows people how important it is to have credible information to make informed judgments and the ethical use of the information they consume.

A carnival ferris wheel has a 15-m radius and completes five turns about its horizontal axis every minute. What is the accelerat

MaRussiya [10]

The acceleration of the person is 4.108 m/s^2.

What is acceleration?

The acceleration is the rate of change in the velocity in a unit of time.

Angular velocity: The change in angular displacement in a unit of time is called angular velocity.

Tangential velocity: The tangential velocity can be defined as the velocity of an object which is perpendicular to the radius in the rotational motion.

The relation between angular velocity ω, tangential velocity v, and radius r from the axis when the radius is perpendicular to the tangential velocity is,

v=ω*r

Given r=15 m, and ω=5 turns/minutes, substitute these values in the above formula.

Note: 1 turn/minute = 2π/60 rad/s.

v=(5 turns/minutes)*15 m

v=(5*2π/60 rad/s)* 15 m

v=7.85 m/s

Since the motion is circular, and the person is at the lowest point of the wheel, so the acceleration due to gravity will have no effect as it is perpendicular to tangential velocity here. The acceleration a for rotational motion is given by,

a=v^2/r

Substitute v=7.85 m/s, and r=15 m in this equation and solve it.

a=(2.094)^2/(15)

a=4.108 m/s^2
