What should Isla write in the areas marked A, B, and C?

Physics
2 answers:
NISA [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Radio waves: have a longer wavelength

X-rays: have a higher frequency

Both: they travel at the same speed

Explanation:

Missing part of the question:

"Isla made a diagram to compare x-rays and radio waves. what should isla write in the areas marked a, b, and c?"

X-rays and radio waves are both types of electromagnetic waves.

Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillations of the electric and the magnetic fields in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation the wave.

All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, the speed of light:

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s

Electromagnetic waves are also classified into 7 different types, according to their wavelength/frequency. From longest to shortest wavelength (and  from lowest to highest frequency, since frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength), they are:

Radio waves (>1 m)

Microwaves (1 mm - 1 m)

Infrared (750 nm - 1 mm)

Visible light (380 nm - 750 nm)

Ultraviolet (10 nm - 380 nm)

X-rays (0.01 nm - 10 nm)

Gamma rays (<0.01 nm)

Therefore, the correct matches are:

Radio waves: have a longer wavelength

X-rays: have a higher frequency

Both: they travel at the same speed

Cellular phones use _____?
dangina [55]
Let's see: frequency of cellular phone waves (GSM phones) is (800-1900 MHz). If we look at the table of the electromagnetic spectrum, we can see that this range is contained within the frequencies of the microwaves, which include waves in the range 300 MHz-300 GHz.

So, summarizing, the correct answer is "microwaves".

One mol of a perfect, monatomic gas expands reversibly and isothermally at 300 K from a pressure of 10 atm to a pressure of 2 at
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

1 mole of perfect, monoatomic gas

initial Temperature(T_i)=300 K

P_i=10 atm

P_f=2 atm

Work done in iso-thermal process=P_iV_iln\frac{P_i}{P_f}

P_i=initial pressure

P_f=Final Pressure

W=10\times 2.463\times ln\frac{10}{2}=39.64 J

Since it is a iso-thermal process therefore q=w

Therefore q=39.64 J

(b)if the gas expands by the same amount again isotherm-ally and irreversibly

work done is=P\Delta V

V_1=\frac{RT_1}{P_1}=\frac{1\times 0.0821\times 300}{10}=2.463 L

V_2=\frac{RT_2}{P_2}=\frac{1\times 0.0821\times 300}{2}=12.315 L

\Delta W=1\times (12.315-2.463)=9.852 J

\Delta q=\Delta W=9.852 J

\Delta U=0

A 70.0-kg person throws a 0.0480-kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 33.5 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 55.0 kg, c
saw5 [17]

Answer:

The final velocity of the thrower is \bf{3.88~m/s} and the final velocity of the catcher is \bf{0.029~m/s}.

Explanation:

Given:

The mass of the thrower, m_{t} = 70~Kg.

The mass of the catcher, m_{c} = 55~Kg.

The mass of the ball, m_{b} = 0.0480~Kg.

Initial velocity of the thrower, v_{it} = 3.90~m/s

Final velocity of the ball, v_{fb} = 33.5~m/s

Initial velocity of the catcher, v_{ic} = 0~m/s

Consider that the final velocity of the thrower is v_{ft}. From the conservation of momentum,

&& m_{t}v_{ft} + m_{b}v_{fb} = (m_{t} + m_{b})v_{it}\\&or,& v_{ft} = \dfrac{(m_{t} + m_{b})v_{it} - m_{b}v_{fb}}{m_{t}}\\&or,& v_{ft} = \dfrac{(70 + 0.0480)(3.90) - (0.0480)(33.5)}{70}\\&or,& v_{ft} = 3.88~m/s

Consider that the final velocity of the catcher is v_{fc}. From the conservation of momentum,

&& (m_{c} + m_{b})v_{fc} = m_{b}v_{it}\\&or,& v_{fc} = \dfrac{m_{b}v_{it}}{(m_{c} + m_{b})}\\&or,& v_{fc} = \dfrac{(0.048)(33.5)}{(55.0 + 0.0480)}\\&or,& v_{fc} = 0.029~m/s

Thus, the final velocity of thrower is 3.88~m/s and that for the catcher is 0.029~m/s.
