Why can’t we see microwaves

Physics
1 answer:
motikmotik3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The human retina can only detect incident light that falls in waves 400 to 720 nanometers long, so we can't see microwave or ultraviolet wavelengths. This also applies to infrared lights which has wavelengths longer than visible and shorter than microwaves, thus being invisible to the human eye.

Answer:

Velocity and speed both are continuously increasing.

Acceleration is constant.

Explanation:

Speed is defined as length of path covered by a body per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity that consist of magnitude only and not direction.

Velocity is defined as the displacement per unit times. Displacement is the shortest distance between the two points. It is a vector quantity and  hence has a direction in the direction of displacement along with its own magnitude.

  • Both velocity and speed have same unit of measure which is meter per second in S.I. During <em>free fall</em> in the absence of any air resistance the velocity and speed both will be having a vertical downward direction with continuously increasing magnitude. Tough we are not concerned about the direction when discussing about speed but here both are equal since the motion is linear.

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity of a body which is a vector quantity. For speed we are concerned about instantaneous acceleration since for a short period of time it may have a specific direction.

  • During free fall the acceleration is of a body is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and constant when the height of fall is much lesser than the radius of the earth.

A car moves with the speed of 120m/s for 4 minutes ,calculate the distance covered by the car​
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

960 m

Explanation:

Given that,

  • Speed = 120 m/s
  • Time taken = 4 minutes

We have to find the distance covered.

Firstly, let's convert time in seconds.

→ 1 minute = 60 seconds

→ 4 minutes = (4 × 60) seconds

→ 4 minutes = 240 seconds

Now, we know that,

→ Distance = Speed × Time

→ Distance = (4 × 240) m

→ Distance = 960 m

Therefore, distance covered is 960 m.

Can we write names while writing conversation in board exam​
lora16 [44]

Answer:

ya we can write the imaginary character's name .

So that we  can identify these imaginary people, as we cannot simply write the conversation and leave it .

Or maybe sometimes the reader will get confused as there is no name for the two people .

So, i suggest that you should write the names

Explanation:

You can even ask to your class teacher for further clarification

if you use the compound pulley, you will need to pull twice the distance but with less force. the force you need is equal to one
algol13

Answer:

F= 25/2 = 12.5N

Explanation:

When you use a compound pulley the force required depends on the mechanical advantage of the compound pulley. This is known as rate of loss of distance or the ratio of the force to the load.

M.A = Effort distance /Load distance. OR M.A = Load/Effort

Edge 2020 waves and diffraction lab report d a t a ​
Sever21 [200]

Answer:Theoretical Discussion

The diffraction of classical waves refers to the phenomenon wherein the waves encounter an obstacle that fragments the wave into components that interfere with one another. Interference simply means that the wave fronts add together to make a new wave which can be significantly different than the original wave. For example, a pair of sine waves having the same amplitude, but being 180◦ out of phase will sum to zero, since everywhere one is positive, the other is negative by an equal amount.
