You are a scientist trying to develop a technology that can be used to power wrist watches. Which type of electromagnetic wave w

ould be most useful to investigate?
Gamma rays, because they are powerful and safe.
Infrared waves, because they do not produce heat and have high energy.
Ultraviolet waves, because they have moderate energy and are abundant.
Microwaves, because they are powerful and available.

Well I don't know.  Let's examine the choices one at a time:

-- Gamma rays ... NO, they are NOT safe.

-- Infrared waves ... NO, they DO produce heat.

-- Ultraviolet waves ... Maybe.  They have plenty of energy, and they're abundant in sunlight.  But unrestricted exposure to them is somewhat dangerous.  

-- Microwaves ... Maybe.  They can be generated with plenty of energy, with inexpensive devices. (They're even used, in most homes, to warm up leftover meatloaf.)  They're safe at moderate power levels, and they're actually all over the place right now.

I think my personal choice is microwaves.

What is the reaction for P₄ + 5 O₂ --> 2 P₂O₅
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Combination or synthesis

Explanation:

The reaction is a combination or synthesis reaction in which two or more substances combines to give a single product.

In such a reaction there is formation of compounds from the union of their constituent elements.

 The driving force for such reactions is the large and negative heat of formation of the product.

So, this is a combination reaction.

A worker is thinking about two ways to get a box up 1.2 m onto a loading dock. He can use a force of 250 N to lift it straight u
harina [27]

Answer:

<em>The second option has a lower power output. P=30 W</em>

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Power </u>

It is a physical magnitude that measures the rate a work W is done over time t.

\displaystyle P=\frac{W}{t}

Since W=F.d

\displaystyle P=\frac{F.d}{t}

The first option means the worker will lift the box by a distance of 1.2 meters in 3 seconds by applying 250 N of force. That produces a power of

\displaystyle P=\frac{(250). (1.2)}{3}=100\ Watt

The second option requires the worker applies 75 N of force and travel a distance of 4 meters for 10 seconds, thus the power is

\displaystyle P=\frac{(75). (4)}{10}=30\ Watt

The second option has a lower power output
