Answer: (B,C,E). The infrared rays, radio waves and x-rays are forms of light are invisible light.

Explanation:

We know that,

The electromagnetic spectrum shows the wave length of the electromagnetic radiation of visible light.

Human eyes can detect the visible light. The wave length of the visible light is 380 nm to 750 nm. Violet light has low frequency and red light has the high frequency.

Human eyes can't detect the invisible light. Radio waves, X-rays and infrared rays are comes in the invisible light. these wave length is shorter compare to visible light.

The wave length of the Radio waves, X-rays and infrared rays defined as:

Radio waves = 1 mm to 10000 km

X-rays = 0.01 m to 10 nm

Infrared rays = 700 nm to 1 mm

Hence, The infrared rays, radio waves and x-rays are forms of light are invisible light.

Radio waves
infrared
x-rays
and red and blue light are not a thing, their on a color spectrum called visible light.

Suppose you have thrown a rock nearly straight up at a coconut in a palm tree,and the rock misses on the way up but hits the coc

Margarita [4]

Most likely it would dislodge the coconut on the way down due to gravity because on the way up the gravity would slow down the rock but on they down the gravity pulls the rock

Determine the speed, wavelength, and frequency of light from a helium-neon laser as it travels through polystyrene. The waveleng

klemol [59]

Answer:

Speed:

$2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Wavelength:

$4.24x10^{-7}m$

Frequency:

$4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Explanation:

The speed of the laser as it travels through polystyrene can be determine by means of the equation of the refraction index:

$n = \frac{c}{v}$ (1)

Where c is the speed of light and v is the speed of the laser in the medium.

Therefore, v will be isolated from equation 1

$v = \frac{c}{n}$

$v = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{1.490}$

$v = 2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Hence, the speed of the laser has a value of $2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Frenquency:

Since, wavelength is the only one who depends on the media. Therefore the frequency in both medium will be the same.

To determine the frequency it can be used the following equation

$c = \nu \cdot \lambda$ (2)

Where c is the speed of light, $\nu$ is the frequency and $\lambda$ is the wavelength

Then, $\nu$ wil be isolated from equation 2.

$\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda}$ (3)

Before using equation 3 it is necessary to express $\lamba$ in units of meters.

$\lambda = 632.8nm . \frac{1m}{1x10^{9}nm}$ ⇒ $6.328x10^{-7}m$

$\nu = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{6.328x10^{-7}m}$

$\nu = 4.74x10^{14}s^{-1}$

$\nu = 4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Hence, the frequency of the laser has a value of $4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Wavelength:

To determine the wavelength it can be used:

$v = \nu \cdot \lambda$

$\lambda = \frac{v}{\nu}$

Where v is the speed of the laser through the polystyrene.

$\lambda = \frac{2.01x10^{8}m/s}{4.74x10^{14}s^{-1}}$

$\lambda = 4.24x10^{-7}m$

Hence, the wavelength of the laser has a value of $4.24x10^{-7}m$

The planet Mars has a mass of 6.1 × 1023 kg and radius of 3.4 × 106 m. What is the acceleration of an object in free fall near t

Oksanka [162]

The acceleration due to gravity of Mars is $3.5\ m / s^{2}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

As per universal law of gravity, the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. But in the present case, the gravity need to be determined between Mars and the object on Mars. Since the mass of Mars is greater than the mass of any object. Thus,

$\text {Gravitational force of planet}=\frac{G M m}{R^{2}}$

Here, G is the gravitational constant, R is the radius of Mars and M, m is the mass of Mars and the object respectively..

Also, according to Newton’s second law of motion, the acceleration of any object will be equal to the ratio of force exerted on it to the mass of the object.

So in order to determine the acceleration due to gravity of Mars, divide the gravitational force of Mars by mass of object on the surface of Mars.

$Acceleration\ due\ to\ gravity\ of\ mars =\frac{\text {Gravitational force of Mars}}{m \text { of object }}$

$Acceleration\ due\ to\ gravity\ of\ mars =\frac{G M m}{R^{2} \times m}=\frac{G M}{R^{2}}$

$\text { Acceleration due to gravity of mars }=\frac{6.67259 \times 10^{-11} \times 6.1 \times 10^{23}}{3.4 \times 3.4 \times 10^{12}}=\frac{40.703 \times 10^{12}}{11.56 \times 10^{12}}$

$\text { Acceleration }=3.5\ \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$
