All of the following involve waves of electromagnetic energy except the rumble of thunder during a storm.

Electromagnetic waves are used to transmit long/short/FM wavelength radio waves, and TV/telephone/wireless signals or energies. They are also responsible for transmiting energy in the form of microwaves, infrared radiation (IR), visible light (VIS), ultraviolet light (UV), X-rays, and gamma rays.

The correct answer between all the choices given is the second choice or letter B. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.

Answer:

B. The rumble of thunder during a storm

Explanation:

A. Sunlight shining on a plant leaf

All visible light coming from different sources is a part of electromagnetic waves.

C. Radios receiving signals through air

Radio waves are part of electromagnetic waves which is of least energy and largest wavelength

D. Watching videos on a computer screen

While watching videos we are receiving the light waves from the television and other ultraviolet waves coming from the source. These both are part of electromagnetic waves

So correct answer will be

B. The rumble of thunder during a storm

because it is a part of sound waves which travel through air

Consider a rectangular ice floe 5.00 m high, 4.00 m long, and 3.00 m wide. a) What percentage of the ice floe is below the water

artcher [175]

Answer:

(a) 92 %

(b) 6.76 %

Explanation:

length, l = 4 m, height, h = 5 m, width, w = 3 m, density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

density of ice = 920 kg/m^3, density of mercury = 13600 kg/m^3

(a) Let v be the volume of ice below water surface.

By the principle of flotation

Buoyant force = weight of ice block

Volume immersed x density of water x g = Total volume of ice block x density

of ice x g

v x 1000 x g = V x 920 x g

v / V = 0.92

% of volume immersed in water = v/V x 100 = 0.92 x 100 = 92 %

(b) Let v be the volume of ice below the mercury.

By the principle of flotation

Buoyant force = weight of ice block

Volume immersed x density of mercury x g = Total volume of ice block x

density of ice x g

v x 13600 x g = V x 920 x g

v / V = 0.0676

% of volume immersed in water = v/V x 100 = 0.0676 x 100 = 6.76 %

A flat sheet of ice has a thickness of 1.4 cm. It is on top of a flat sheet of crown glass that has a thickness of 3.0 cm. Light

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

t = 2.13 10-10 s , d = 6.39 cm

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the definition of refractive index

n = c / v

Where n is the refraction index, c the speed of light and v the speed in the material medium.

The refractive indices of ice and crown glass are 1.13 and 1.52, respectively, therefore the speed of the beam in the material medium is

v = c / n

As the beam strikes perpendicularly, the beam path is equal to the distance of the leaves, there is no refraction, so we can use the uniform motion relationships

v = d / t

t = d / v

t = d n / c

Let's look for the times on each sheet

Ice

t₁ = 1.4 10⁻² 1.31 / 3 10⁸

t₁ = 0.6113 10⁻¹⁰ s

Crown glass (BK7)

t₂ = 3.0 10⁻² 1.52 / 3.0 10⁸

t₂ = 1.52 10⁻¹⁰ s

Time is a scalar therefore it is additive

t = t₁ + t₂
