I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. X-rays have greater frequency than microwaves. In a electromagnetic spectrum, the order in increasing frequency is as follows:

radio waves,microwaves, terahertz radiation, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation,X-rays<span> and gamma </span>rays<span>.</span>

When friction is too weak, like for instance when there is black ice- our center of gravity is displaced too quickly and we can fall. Likewise, if there is a lot of slush on the ground, cars can slip and slide.

A metallic sheet has a large number of slits, 5.0 mm wide and 20 cm apart, and is used as a diffraction grating for microwaves.
san4es73 [151]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the principle of superposition and constructive interference, that is to say everything that refers to an overlap of two or more equal frequency waves, which when interfering create a new pattern of waves of greater intensity (amplitude) whose cusp is the antinode.

Mathematically its definition can be given as:

d sin\theta =m\lambda

Where

d = Width of the slit

\theta = Angle between the beam and the source

m = Order (any integer) which represent the number of repetition of the spectrum, at this case 1 (maximum respect the wavelength)

Since the point of the theta angle for which the diffraction becomes maximum will be when it is worth one then we have to:

\lambda = d

\lambda = 20cm = 20*10^{-2}m

Applying the given relation of frequency, speed and wavelength then we will have that the frequency would be:

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

Here the velocity is equal to the speed of light and the wavelength to the value previously found.

f = \frac{3*10^8}{0.2}

f = 1.5Ghz

Therefore the smallest microwave frequency for which only the central maximum occurs is 1.5Ghz

A wave carries___<br> from one place to another.<br> Mechanical waves carry energy through ___
saul85 [17]

Answer:

Energy

A medium

Explanation:

A wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium, transferring energy from one point to another in the medium.

Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium for their propagation.
