X-rays are electromagnetic waves. Like any other electromagnetic waves, they are transverse waves, and travel at the speed of light.

X ray is one of the electromagnetic waves.

As per Clark Maxwell's electromagnetic theory, all the electromagnetic waves move with the velocity of light i.e c= 3×10^8 m/s

In case of electromagnetic waves,the electric field and magnetic field are perpendicular to each other as well as perpendicular to the direction of propagation.The electromagnetic waves exhibit the property of polarisation. Hence they are transverse in nature.

Hence the best statements about X- ray will be-

1- X -rays are electromagnetic waves

2-X-rays are transverse transverse waves

3- X- rays travel at the speed of light.

Absolute zero (K=0 or -273.15°C) is what temperature on the Farenheit scale? a) 459.4°F b) -301.43 °F c) 233.05°F d) -40.15°F e
ANEK [815]

Answer:

e) None of these is true

Explanation:

Given that

Temperature = 0 K

We know that relationship between kelvin and Farenheit scale

\dfrac{K-273}{100}=\dfrac{F-32}{180}

Now by putting the values

\dfrac{K-273}{100}=\dfrac{F-32}{180}

\dfrac{0-273}{100}=\dfrac{F-32}{180}

So F= - 459.67°F

So we can say that 0 K is equal to  - 459.67°F.

So the our option e is correct.

Cathode rays were shown to be a stream of _____.
guapka [62]

Cathode rays were shown to be a stream of "electrons".


Cathode rays (likewise called an electron beam) are streams of electrons saw in vacuum tubes. In the event that a cleared glass tube is outfitted with two anodes and a voltage is connected, the glass inverse the negative terminal is seen to sparkle from electrons radiated from the cathode. Electrons were first found as the constituents of cathode beams. The picture in an exemplary TV is made by centered light emission redirected by electric or magnetic fields in cathode ray tubes (CRTs).

Two forces are acting on an object as shown in Fig. on the right. What is the magnitude of the resultant force?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

185 N

Explanation:

Sum of forces in the x direction:

Fₓ = -(80 N cos 75°) + (120 N cos 60°)

Fₓ = 39.3 N

Sum of forces in the y direction:

Fᵧ = (80 N sin 75°) + (120 N sin 60°)

Fᵧ = 181.2 N

The magnitude of the net force is:

F = √(Fₓ² + Fᵧ²)

F = √((39.3 N)² + (181.2 N)²)

F = 185 N

Identify one type of electromagnetic energy that has a shorter wave length than green light
11111nata11111 [884]
When you look at the acronym ROY G. BIV, you get the wavelengths from longest to shortest.  Since Green is in the middle of ROY G. BIV, anything to the right of it would have a shorter wavelength.  You can choose in the visible range Blue, Indigo, or Violet.
