Answer:

Microwaves, visible light, ultraviolet light, x-rays, γ-rays

Explanation:

The energy of any wave is given by :

$E=h\nu$

h = Planck's constant

$\nu$ is the frequency of wave

It is clear that the energy of any wave is directly proportional to its frequency. Gamma rays have maximum frequency. Out of given options microwaves have least frequency.

So, the increasing order of energy is "microwaves, visible light, ultraviolet light, x-rays, γ-rays". Hence, the correct option is (5).

What is the mass of an object that is accelerated at 25 m/s2 by a force of 135 N?

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 5.4 kg</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{f}{a} \\$

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

$m = \frac{135}{25} = \frac{27}{5} \\$

We have the final answer as

An object is placed perpendicular to the the principal axis of convex lens of focal length 8,the distance of the object from the

Digiron [165]

Answer:

v = 24 cm and inverted image

Explanation:

Given that,

The focal length of the object, f = +8 cm

Object distance, u = -12 cm

We need to find the position &nature of the image. Let v be the image distance. Using lens formula to find it :

$\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}$

Put all the values,

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{8}+\dfrac{1}{(-12)}\\\\v=24\ cm$

So, the image distance from the lens is 24 cm.

Magnification,

$m=\dfrac{v}{u}\\\\m=\dfrac{24}{-12}\\\\m=-2$

The negative sign of magnification shows that the formed image is inverted.

ELEN [110]

Answer:

red shift, indicating that the universe is expanding

Explanation:

Doppler effect occurs when a source of a wave (e.g. light, or sound waves) moves relative to an observer; as a result of this relative motion, the wavelength of the wave appears lengthened/shortened to the observer. Two situations can occur:

- The source of the wave is moving towards the observer - in this case, the wavelength of the wave becomes shorter. If the wave is visible light, such as the light emitted by distant galaxies, this means that the wavelength of the light shifts towards the blue-end of the spectrum (blue-shift)

- The source of the wave is moving away from the observer - in this case, the wavelength of the wave becomes longer. If the wave is visible light, such as the light emitted by distant galaxies, this means that the wavelength of the light shifts towards the red-end of the spectrum (red-shift)

In our universe, we observe a red-shift for all the distant galaxies: this means that these galaxies are moving away from us, so this is an indication that the universe is expanding.

A projectile is launched from ground level at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. Neglect air resistance and consider t

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

just before landing the ground

Explanation:

Let the velocity of projection is u and the angle of projection is 30°.

Let T is the time of flight and R is the horizontal distance traveled. As there is no force acting in horizontal direction, so the horizontal velocity remains constant. Let the particle hits the ground with velocity v.

initial horizontal component of velocity, ux = u Cos 30

initial vertical component of velocity, uy = u Sin 30

Time of flight is given by

$T = \frac{2u Sin\theta }{g}$
