Answer:

Explanation:

Microwaves are the electromagnetic waves which are produced by the specially designed vacuum tubes such as magnetrons, gunn diodes, etc.

They are used in the following manner:

1. In Radar systems for the navigation.

2. in microwave ovens for the cooking purposes.

3. In observing the movements of trains on rails.

Answer:

1.) Radar

2.) Cancer Treatment

4.) Cooking

Explanation:

Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic radiations, like radio waves, X-rays, Gamma Rays, ultraviolet radiation. Microwaves has a wide range of applications. It has frequency range 1GHz to 300GHz and has smaller wavelengths. As microwaves do not bend by any obstacles coming in their path, So, it can be used in radar. In cancer treatment, it is used to increase the temperature of tumor cells by high-power microwaves, results in turns cell membrane damage, which in results destruction of cancer cells. In cooking, microwave heat food like the sun rays your face i.e by means of radiation. It increases the energy of molecules inside food, which results in cooking or heating the food.

An object glides on a horizontal tabletop with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.5. If its initial velocity is 4.3 m/s, how
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Time, t = 0.87 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity of the object, u = 4.3 m/s

The coefficient of kinetic friction between horizontal tabletop and the object is 0.5

We need to find the time taken by the object for the object to come to rest i.e. final velocity will be 0.

Using first equation of motion to find it as :

v=u+at

a is the acceleration, here, a=\mu g

0=u+\mu gt

t=\dfrac{u}{\mu g}\\\\t=\dfrac{4.3}{0.5\times 9.8}\\\\t=0.87\ s

So, the time taken by the object to come at rest is 0.87 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

About how much longer can the Sun continue to generate energy by nuclear reactions in its core?
QveST [7]

Answer: 5billion years

Explanation: The sun produces energy through radioactive fusion reaction.

Nebula theory states that the gaseous particles of the Earth collapsed as a result of its own gravity which continuously lead to fusion reaction for the production of nuclear energy.

The Core of the Sun is that area up to 25% from the radius of the sun,here the pressure here range up to 250million atmosphere containing mainly hydrogen which gets converted in Helium molecule. The core is the center for energy production accounting for more than 98%, nuclear energy is transmitted at about 4.3million metric tons per second.
