<h2>Answer: Gamma Rays</h2>

Explanation:

The speed c of an electromagnetic wave is given by:

c=f.\lambda (1)

Where f is the frequency and \lambda the wavelength.

Finding f from (1):

f=\frac{c}{\lambda} (2)

As we can see, there is an inverse relation between the frequency and the wavelength (taking into account the speed of light is constant). This means, the smaller the wavelength, the greater the frequency.

Now, in the electromagnetic spectrum gamma rays has the smallest wavelength, in the order of 10^{-6} nm. Therefore, gamma rays has the highest frequencies  in the electromagnetic spectrum.

A 25N force is acting on a body moving on a straight line with Initial momentum 20 kam's. Find the final momentum after 4 second
Nezavi [6.7K]

The final momentum of the body is equal to 120 Kg.m/s.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

Momentum can be described as the multiplication of the mass and velocity of an object. Momentum is a vector quantity as it carries magnitude and direction.

If m is an object's mass and v is its velocity then the object's momentum p is: {\displaystyle \mathbf {p} =m\mathbf {v} . The S.I. unit of measurement of momentum is kg⋅m/s, which is equivalent to the N.s.

Given the initial momentum of the body = Pi = 20 Kg.m/s

The force acting on the body, Pf = 25 N

The time, Δt = 4-0 = 4s

The Force is equal to the change in momentum: F ×Δt = ΔP

25 × 4 = P - 20

100 = P - 20

P = 100 + 20 = 120  Kg.m/s

Therefore, the final momentum of a body is 120 Kg.m/s.

Find the energy in Joules required to lift a 55.0 Megagram object a distance of 500 cm.
fredd [130]

Energy to lift something =

               (mass of the object) x (gravity) x (height of the lift).

BUT ...

This simple formula only works if you use the right units.

Mass . . . kilograms
Gravity . . . meters/second²
Height . . . meters

For this question . . .

Mass = 55 megagram = 5.5 x 10⁷ grams = 5.5 x 10⁴ kilograms

Gravity (on Earth) = 9.8 m/second²

Height = 500 cm  =  5.0 meters

So we have ...

Energy = (5.5 x 10⁴ kilogram) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m)

            =  2,696,925 joules .

That's quite a large amount of energy ... equivalent to
straining at the rate of 1 horsepower for almost exactly an
hour, or burning a 100 watt light bulb for about 7-1/2 hours.

The reason is the large mass that's being lifted.
On Earth, that much mass weighs about 61 tons.

a concrete slab 20 m long and weighing 400,000 N is supported by one pillar. If a 19,600 N car is parked 8 meters from one end.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

let the distance of pillar is "r" from one end of the slab

So here net torque must be balance with respect to pillar to be in balanced state

So here we will have

Mg(r - L/2) = mg(L/2 - 8)

here we know that

mg = 19600 N

Mg = 400,000 N

L = 20 m

from above equation we have

400,000(r - 10) = 19,600 (10 - 8)

r - 10 = 0.098

r = 10.098 m

so pillar is at distance 10.098 m from one end of the slab

Question 23
bonufazy [111]

If the gymnast mass were doubled, her height (h) from the top of the board would be as follows,

с  Stay the same

Explanation:

  • The Mass of an object or body does not affect the acceleration due to gravity in any kind of way.
  • Light weight objects accelerate more slowly than the heavy objects because when the forces other than the gravity also plays a major role.
  • Mass increases of a body when an object has higher velocity or the speed.
  • The greater the force of gravity, it would give a direct impact on the object's acceleration; thus considering only a force, the heavier the object is, it would accelerate faster. But an acceleration depends upon the two factors which are  force and mass.
  • Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon the two factors which are, the net force of an object and the mass of the object.

Some parents build their children’s lives around sports and place a high premium on the successes their children achieve in spor
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

I think they cross the line when they force sports into their child's life, and take away their choice of what they want to do so they essentially waste their childhood preparing for something that may never happen or they just don't get the opportunity to explore their artistic abilities.
