Which statement best describes how the period and frequency of electromagnetic waves change between gamma rays and microwaves?

2 answers:

6 0

On an electromagnetic spectrum, one of its noticeable trends is that the wavelength increases with decreasing energy and the wavelength decrease with increasing energy. Furthermore, gamma rays have high energy and short wavelengths while microwaves have low energy and long wavelengths.

To have the highest magnification in a telescope, the focal length of the objective lens should be _________ and the focal lengt

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Large; small.

Explanation:

A telescope can be defined as an optical instrument or device which comprises of a curved mirror and lenses used for viewing distant objects i.e objects that are very far away such as stars and other planetary bodies. The first telescope was invented by Sir Isaac Newton.

To have the highest magnification in a telescope, the focal length of the objective lens should be large and the focal length of the eyepiece lens should be small.

This ultimately implies that, the eyepiece lens has a small focal length while the objective lens has a large focal length.

Very far from earth (at R- oo), a spacecraft has run out of fuel and its kinetic energy is zero. If only the gravitational force

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Speed of the spacecraft right before the collision: $\displaystyle \sqrt{\frac{2\, G\cdot M_\text{e}}{R\text{e}}}$ .

Assumption: the earth is exactly spherical with a uniform density.

Explanation:

This question could be solved using the conservation of energy.

The mechanical energy of this spacecraft is the sum of:

the kinetic energy of this spacecraft, and
the (gravitational) potential energy of this spacecraft.

Let $m$ denote the mass of this spacecraft. At a distance of $R$ from the center of the earth (with mass $M_\text{e}$ ), the gravitational potential energy ( $\mathrm{GPE}$ ) of this spacecraft would be:

$\displaystyle \text{GPE} = -\frac{G \cdot M_\text{e}\cdot m}{R}$ .

Initially, $R$ (the denominator of this fraction) is infinitely large. Therefore, the initial value of $\mathrm{GPE}$ will be infinitely close to zero.

On the other hand, the question states that the initial kinetic energy ( $\rm KE$ ) of this spacecraft is also zero. Therefore, the initial mechanical energy of this spacecraft would be zero.

Right before the collision, the spacecraft would be very close to the surface of the earth. The distance $R$ between the spacecraft and the center of the earth would be approximately equal to $R_\text{e}$ , the radius of the earth.

The $\mathrm{GPE}$ of the spacecraft at that moment would be:

$\displaystyle \text{GPE} = -\frac{G \cdot M_\text{e}\cdot m}{R_\text{e}}$ .

Subtract this value from zero to find the loss in the $\rm GPE$ of this spacecraft:

$\begin{aligned}\text{GPE change} &= \text{Initial GPE} - \text{Final GPE} \\ &= 0 - \left(-\frac{G \cdot M_\text{e}\cdot m}{R_\text{e}}\right) = \frac{G \cdot M_\text{e}\cdot m}{R_\text{e}} \end{aligned}$

Assume that gravitational pull is the only force on the spacecraft. The size of the loss in the $\rm GPE$ of this spacecraft would be equal to the size of the gain in its $\rm KE$ .

Therefore, right before collision, the $\rm KE$ of this spacecraft would be:

$\begin{aligned}& \text{Initial KE} + \text{KE change} \\ &= \text{Initial KE} + (-\text{GPE change}) \\ &= 0 + \frac{G \cdot M_\text{e}\cdot m}{R_\text{e}} \\ &= \frac{G \cdot M_\text{e}\cdot m}{R_\text{e}}\end{aligned}$ .

On the other hand, let $v$ denote the speed of this spacecraft. The following equation that relates $v\!$ and $m$ to $\rm KE$ :

$\displaystyle \text{KE} = \frac{1}{2}\, m \cdot v^2$ .

Rearrange this equation to find an equation for $v$ :

$\displaystyle v = \sqrt{\frac{2\, \text{KE}}{m}}$ .

It is already found that right before the collision, $\displaystyle \text{KE} = \frac{G \cdot M_\text{e}\cdot m}{R_\text{e}}$ . Make use of this equation to find $v$ at that moment:

$\begin{aligned}v &= \sqrt{\frac{2\, \text{KE}}{m}} \\ &= \sqrt{\frac{2\, G\cdot M_\text{e} \cdot m}{R_\text{e}\cdot m}} = \sqrt{\frac{2\, G\cdot M_\text{e}}{R_\text{e}}}\end{aligned}$ .

A Hall probe, consisting of a rectangular slab of current-carrying material, is calibrated by placing it in a known magnetic fie

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

(a) 0.345 T

(b) 0.389 T

Solution:

As per the question:

Hall emf, $V_{Hall} = 20\ mV = 0.02\ V$

Magnetic Field, B = 0.10 T

Hall emf, $V'_{Hall} = 69\ mV = 0.069\ V$

Now,

Drift velocity, $v_{d} = \frac{V_{Hall}}{B}$

$v_{d} = \frac{0.02}{0.10} = 0.2\ m/s$

Now, the expression for the electric field is given by:

$E_{Hall} = Bv_{d}sin\theta$ (1)

And

$E_{Hall} = V_{Hall}d$

Thus eqn (1) becomes

$V_{Hall}d = dBv_{d}sin\theta$

where

d = distance

$B = \frac{V_{Hall}}{v_{d}sin\theta}$ (2)

(a) When $\theta = 90^{\circ}$

$B = \frac{0.069}{0.2\times sin90} = 0.345\ T$

(b) When $\theta = 60^{\circ}$

$B = \frac{0.069}{0.2\times sin60} = 0.398\ T$

Describe how one plays Dr.Dogeball

JulsSmile [24]

•To play Dr. Dodgeball you need to have 2 teams to verse each other.
•Next, select one person from each team to be the doctor (depending on the size of the teams you can have varying amounts of doctors)
•Continue to play dodgeball how you normally would
•When a player gets hit and is “out” they have to sit on the ground and wait for the doctor to “revive them” (this usually requires the doctor dragging,touching, or moving the player that is out to a “revival place” which is usually decided on by the advisor or person in charge.
•Finally, try to get all the doctors and players out from the other team. Get the doctors first, for they cannot revive themselves. Which means the other players are out after they get hit with a ball since the doctors are out. (Some games are played where if all doctors are out the game ends)
Hope this helped! Play on! And plz mark brainliest lol this was long to write :D
