A speeder is pulling directly away and increasing his distance from a police car that is moving at 24 m/s with respect to the gr

ound. The radar gun in the police car emits an electromagnetic wave with a frequency of6.7 × 10 9 Hz. The wave reflects from the speeder’s car and returns to the police car, where its frequency is measured to be 370 Hz less than the emitted frequency. Find the speeder’s speed with respect to the ground.

We divide the electromagnetic spectrum into six major categories of light, listed below. Rank these forms of light from left to
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

gamma rays , X rays,  ultraviolet , visible light , infrared,  radio waves

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum is the set of electromagnetic radiations distributed in their different frequencies or wavelengths, which in turn are related to their energy.   If we go from the smallest wavelengths known up to now (because according to physics the electromagnetic spectrum is infinite and continuous) to the longest, the electromagnetic spectrum covers the following radiations:  

Gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet, visible light (all the colors we are able to see), infrared, radio waves and microwaves.  

Let's make a brief of them:

-Gamma rays: With a wavelength in the order of 10^{-12}m, is a type of ionizing radiation capable of penetrating matter quite deeply and is able to cause serious damage to the nucleus of the cells. Inaddiito, these rays are used to sterilize medical equipment and food.

-X rays: With a wavelength between 1m and 10km. It is invisible to the human eye, capable of crossing opaque bodies and of being an ionizing radiation.

-Ultraviolet light: Whose wavelength is approximately between 100 nm and 380 nm; is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is not visible to the human eye.

-Visible light: This part of the spectrum is located between ultraviolet light and infrared light (380 nm - 780 nm).  It should be noted, the fact the only part of the whole electromagnetic spectrum is visible to humans is because the receptors in our eyes are only sensitive to these wavelengths.

-Infrared: This type of radiation is not visible to the human eye, since its wavelengths are outside the visible spectrum (between 700 nm and 1 mm).  

These waves can be divided into:  

<u>- Near infrared</u> or long wave infrared: it is the least sensitive to color and is easily absorbed by water.  

<u>- Medium or medium wave infrared:</u> it is also insensitive to color and easily absorbed by water and many types of plastics and paints.  

-<u> Far infrared or short wave infrared: </u>it is more penetrating than the long wave and is good for heating metals, these waves also can pass through clear materials.  

This light has many uses, including heating lamps in physiotherapy and medical treatments, heat sensing devices, among others.

-Radio waves: These are a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 10 m to 10,000 m. This type of electromagnetic waves is very well reflected in the ionosphere, the layer of the atmosphere through which they travel directly or using repeaters.  In addition, they are very useful to transport information, being important in telecommunications. They are used not only for conventional radio transmissions but also in mobile telephony and TV.

??? True or false. An element can only exist as an individual atom.
KengaRu [80]
I think it's false because Oxygen is diatomic so it's found as O2 which means that it has two atoms of itself.

A 5.3 kg cat and a 2.5 kg bowl of tuna fish are at opposite ends of the 4.0-m-long seesaw. how far to the left of the pivot must
nika2105 [10]
Moment about the pivot must be equal for the seesaw to balance. Initially, the first cat and the bowl are at 2 m from the pivot.

The moment due to cat = 5.3*2 = 10.6 kg.m
The moment due to bowl = 2.5*2 = 5 kg.m
The unbalanced moment = 10.6 - 5 = 5.6 kg.m

Therefore, the 3.7 kg cat should stand at a distance x from the pivot in left to balance the 5.6 kg.m.
That is,
3.7*x = 5.6 => x = 5.6/3.7 = 1.5134 m to the left (on the side of the bowl)

Lee has a mass of 40.0 kg and ice skates with a speed of 4.6 m/s.
faltersainse [42]

Their common speed is 1.53 m/s.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed can be defined as the ratio of the distance to the time of a body in motion.

  To calculate their final speed, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • mu+m'u' = V(m+m')............. Equation 1

Where:

  • m = mass of the Lee
  • m' = mass of Mat
  • u = initial speed of Lee
  • u' = initial speed of Mat
  • V = Their common speed.

make V the subject of the equation

  • V = (mu+m'u')/(m+m')........... Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 40 kg
  • m' = 80 kg
  • u = 4.6 m/s
  • u' = 0 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • V = [(40×4.6)+(80×0)]/(40+80)
  • V = 184/120
  • V = 1.53 m/s.

Hence, Their common speed is 1.53 m/s.
