Which type of electromagnetic radiation has the highest frequency?

Physics
1 answer:
Likurg_2 [28]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

As we know that relation between energy and wavelength is as follows.

                  E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

This means that energy is inversely proportional to wavelength. So, more is the energy of an electromagnetic radiation less will be its wavelength.

Also,          f = \frac{c}{\lambda}

Hence, less will be the wavelength more will frequency of a radiation.

Gamma rays are the rays that have highest energy, small wavelength and highest frequency.

Thus, we can conclude that gamma rays are the electromagnetic radiation which has the highest frequency.

Why can't there be a number lower than absolute zero
nexus9112 [7]

Absolute zero is not about numbers.  It's about temperature, and the
motion of molecules in gases. 

You know that the temperature we feel with our skin is the result of the
average speed of all the tiny molecules zipping around or vibrating in
the solid, liquid, or gas.

The faster they're all moving, the warmer the substance feels to us. 
The slower they're all moving, the cooler the substance feels to us.

When molecules slow down to zero and lose all of their kinetic energy,
that temperature is what we call 'absolute zero' ... if they're not moving
at all, then they can't move any slower.

Ocean waves of wavelength 26 m are moving directly toward a concrete barrier wall at 4.0 m/s . The waves reflect from the wall,
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

a) the distance between her and the wall is 13 m

b) the period of her up-and-down motion is 6.5 s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

wavelength λ = 26 m

velocity v = 4.0 m/s

a) How far from the wall is she?

Now, The first antinode is formed at a distance λ/2 from the wall, since the separation distance between the person and wall is;

x = λ/2

we substitute

x = 26 m / 2

x = 13 m

Therefore, the distance between her and the wall is 13 m

b) What is the period of her up-and-down motion?

we know that the relationship between frequency, wavelength and wave speed is;

v = fλ

hence, f = v/λ

we also know that frequency is expressed as the reciprocal of the time period;

f = 1/T

Hence

1/T = v/λ

solve for T

Tv = λ

T = λ/v

we substitute

T = 26 m / 4 m/s

T = 6.5 s

Therefore, the period of her up-and-down motion is 6.5 s
