Answer: has wavelengths that are longer than visible light

Explanation: Electromagnetic spectra comprises of different electromagnetic waves which are arranged in order of increasing wavelengths or decreasing energies.

In order from highest to lowest energy, the waves are arranged as: gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible light, infrared radiation, and radio waves.

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

E= energy

h= planck's constant

c= velocity of light

\lambda = wavelength

As wavelength and energy are inversely related, the wave having higher wavelengths will be lowest in energy. Thus as infrared radiation have lower energy as compared to visible radiation. Thus  infrared radiation have higher wavelength as compared to visible radiation.

dem82 [27]

Answer:

r_\alpha=16cm

Explanation:

The radius of the circumference described by a particle in a cyclotron is given by:

r=\frac{mv}{qB}(1)

m is the particle's mass, v is the speed of the particle, q is the particle's charge and B is the magnitude of the magnetic field.

Kinetic energy is defined as:

K=\frac{mv^2}{2}=\frac{m^2v^2}{2m}\\

Solving this for mv:

mv=\sqrt{2mK}(2)

Replacing (2) in (1):

r=\frac{\sqrt{2mK}}{qB}

For protons, we have:

r_p=\frac{\sqrt{2m_pK}}{eB}(3)

For alpha particles, we have:

r_\alpha=\frac{\sqrt{2m_\alpha K}}{(2e)B}(4)

Dividing (4) in (3):

\frac{r_\alpha}{r_p}=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{2m_\alpha K}}{(2e)B}}{\frac{\sqrt{2m_p K}}{(e)B}}\\r_\alpha=\frac{r_p}{2}\sqrt{\frac{m_\alpha}{m_p}}\\r_\alpha=\frac{16cm}{2}\sqrt{\frac{6.64*10^{-27}kg}{1.67*10^{-27}kg}}\\r_\alpha=\frac{16cm}{2}(\sqrt{3.98})\\\\r_\alpha=\frac{16cm}{2}(2)\\r_\alpha=16cm

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Force = 22508.86 N

Explanation:

Given:

Area of the window, A = 2.02 m²

Air pressure inside the house, P₁ = 1.02 atm

External air pressure, P₂ = 0.910 atm

Now, The difference in the pressure, ΔP = P₁ - P₂ = 1.02 - 0.910 = 0.11 atm

or

ΔP = 0.11 atm  ×  (101300 Pa / 1 atm )

ΔP = 11143 Pascals

Now,

the Force is given as:

Force = Pressure × area

on substituting the values, we get

Force = 11143 Pa × 2.02 m²

or

Force = 22508.86 N
