Lower frequency waves have less strength to penetrate. How bad a wave is all depends on how well it penetrates our bodies. Visible light doesn't penetrate ur skin, but UV rays (higher than visible) can go through our skin, making it <span>bad" for us. High frequency waves have more energy and move faster</span>

Answer:

Explanation:

Waves with higher frequency have high penetration power. Energy of a wave id directly proportional to the frequency of the wave so penetration power is high. Visible rays suits to the human body and do not harm. Humans can see visible light and can easily work in visible range. But in the higher frequency such as UV waves and radio waves penetrate human body and affect it in negative way.

Answer:

d. We can calculate it by applying Newton's version of Kepler's third law

Explanation:

The measurements of a Star like the Sun have several problems, the first one is distance, but the most important is the temperature since as we get closer all the instruments will melt. This is why all measurements must be indirect because of the effects that these variables create on nearby bodies.

Kepler's laws are deduced from Newton's law of universal gravitation, in these laws the mass of the Sun affects the orbit of the planets since it creates a force of attraction, if measured the orbit and the time it takes to travel it we can know the centripetal acceleration and with it knows the force, from where we clear the mass of the son.

Let's review the statements of the exercise

.a) False. We don't have good enough models for this calculation

.b) False. The size of the sun is very difficult to measure because it is a mass of gas, in addition the density changes strongly with depth

.c) False. The amount of light that comes out of the sun is not all the light produced and is due to quantum effects where the mass of the sun is not taken into account

.d) True. This method has been used to calculate the mass of the sun and the other planets since the variable distance and time are easily measured from Earth

Correct answer is D
