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.

A 6 N and a 10 N force act on an object. The moment arm of the 6 N force is 0.2 m. If the 10 N force produces five times the tor
Levart [38]

Answer:

The moment arm is 0.6 m

Explanation:

Given that,

First force F_{1}=6\ N

Second force F_{2}=10\ N

Distance r = 0.2 m

We need to calculate the moment arm

Using formula of torque

\tau=Force\times lever\ arm

So, Here,

\tau_{2}=5 \tau_{1}

We know that,

The torque is the product of the force and distance.

Put the value of torque in the equation

F_{2}\times d_{2}=5\times F_{1}\times r_{1}

r_{2}=\dfrac{5\times F_{1}\times r_{1}}{F_{2}}

Where, F_{1}=First force

F_{1}=First force

F_{2}=Second force

r_{1}= distance

Put the value into the formula

r_{2}=\dfrac{5\times6\times0.2}{10}

r_{2}=0.6\ m

Hence, The moment arm is 0.6 m

In a 350-m race, runner A starts from rest and accelerates at 1.6 m/s^2 for the first 30 m and then runs at constant speed. Runn
kifflom [539]

Answer:

B can take 0.64 sec for the longest nap .

Explanation:

Given that,

Total distance = 350 m

Acceleration of A = 1.6 m/s²

Distance = 30 m

Acceleration of B = 2.0 m/s²

We need to calculate the time for A

Using equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at_{A}^2

Put the value in the equation

30=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.6\times t_{A}^2

t_{A}=\sqrt{\dfrac{30\times2}{1.6}}

t_{A}=6.12\ sec

We need to calculate the time for B

Using equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at_{B}^2

Put the value in the equation

30=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times2.0\times t_{B}^2

t_{B}=\sqrt{\dfrac{30\times2}{2.0}}

t_{B}=5.48\ sec

We need to calculate the time for longest nap

Using formula for difference of time

t'=t_{A}-t_{B}

t'=6.12-5.48

t'=0.64\ s

Hence, B can take 0.64 sec for the longest nap .
