The electromagnetic spectrum is traditionally divided into regions of radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet rays, x rays, and gamma rays. ... Wavelength defines the distance between adjacent points of the electromagnetic wave that are in equal phase (e.g., wavecrests)

The electromagnetic spectrum is the term used by scientists to describe the entire range of light that exists. From radio waves to gamma rays, most of the light in the universe is, in fact, invisible to us! ... Another closely related property is wavelength: the distance from the peak of one wave to the peak of the next.

Describe the difference between a conductor and an insulator in terms of thermal energy transfer and provide an example of each.

Nikitich [7]

The difference between conductors and insulators is because of electronic structure of atoms and molecules.

Anywhere we have free electrons, we have a hard conductor where free electrons help in conduction.

In electrolytes, charged Ions do conduction.

Dielectrics (or insulators) don't have free electrons current.

Free electrons mean, the electrons that are not related with a specific atom, they are allowed to move nearby the crystal lattice.

Which statement explains whether or not a person should use an experiment of a ball rolling down a hill as evidence that the for

Ksenya-84 [330]

The ball raised up the hill is given gravitational potential energy, which

causes it to roll spontaneously down the hill.

The statement that explains whether the ball rolling down the hill

experiment should be used is; The experiment shows the ball falls toward

the bottom of the hill, so it provides direct evidence that gravity pulls an

object downward. They should use it.

Reason:

The equation for the velocity of a ball falling down a hill is $v = \sqrt{\dfrac{10}{7} \cdot g \cdot h}$

Therefore, by increasing the height from which the ball rolls down the hill,

the velocity of the ball increases, which indicates that the ball is

accelerating, and therefore, being acted on by a force, the force of gravity.

Therefore;

Given that the ball falls or moves with increasing speed towards

the bottom of the hill, which shows that the motion is due to Earth's pull

known as the gravitational force, the experiment should be used.

Answer:

I like to memorize excerpt from articles to solve and answer questions like these. I hope this can help, it's from study.com: "The relationship between voltage, current, and resistance is described by Ohm's law. This equation, i = v/r, tells us that the current, i, flowing through a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage, v, and inversely proportional to the resistance, r."

Two objects of the same mass are on two different planets. Planet A has a force of gravity that is weaker than that of planet B.

iris [78.8K]

C) The weight of the object on planet A will be less than the weight of the object on planet B.

This happened because: when gravitational pull of a planet is weak, an object will weigh less as a result of less gravity forcing it down to the ground.
