Why x ray is called an electromagnetic wave

1 answer:

7 0

Because they behave just like all the electromagnetic waves of the spectrum. Same equations, just shorter wavelengths and more energy.

Hope you get it :)

A 1.0 kg football is given an initial velocity at ground level of 20.0 m/s [37 above horizontal]. It gets blocked just after re

stepan [7]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Neglect air resistance.
The horizontal component of the launch velocity is
(20 m/s)*cos(37°) = 15.973 m/s
The vertical component of the launch velocity is
(20 m/s)*sin(37°) = 12.036 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity is g =9.8 m/s².
The time, t s, for the ball to reach a height of 3 m is given by
(12.036 m/s)*(t s) - (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)² = (3 m)
12.036t - 4.9t² - 3 = 0
2.4543t - t² - 0.6122 = 0
t² - 2.4563t + 0.6122 = 0
Solve with the quadratic formula.
t = (1/2)[2.4563 +/- √(6.0334 - 2.4488)]
t = 2.1748 or 0.2815 s
The ball reaches a height of 3 m twice.
The first time it reaches 3 m height is 0.2815 s.

Part a.
The vertical velocity when t = 0.2815 s is
Vy = 12.036 - 9.8*0.2815
= 9.2773 m/s
The horizontal component of velocity is Vx = 15.973 m/s
The resultant velocity is
√(9.2773² + 15.973² ) = 18.47 m/s
Answer:
The velocity at a height of 3.0 m is 18.5 m/s (nearest tenth)

Part b.
The horizontal distance traveled is
d = (15.973 m/s)*(0.2815 s) = 4.4964 m
Answer:
The horizontal distance traveled is 4.5 m (nearest tenth)

A bus leaves at 9 am with a group of tourists. They travel 350 km before they stop for lunch. Then they travel an additional 250

Anettt [7]

Average speed = Distance traveled / time taken

In this case Time taken = Difference in hours between 3 PM and 9 AM

= 6 hours

Total distance traveled = 350 km + 250 km

= 600 kilometers

So average speed = 600/6 = 100 km/hr

Average speed of bus = 27.78 m/s

So the bus's average speed = 27.78 m/s or 100 km/hr.

Think about lifestyle choices that you make on a daily basis. Choose at least four lifestyle choices which you could change to i

eimsori [14]

A.The four lifestyle choices which I could change are:
1. The amount of physical exercise I engage in on a daily basis.
2, The number of hours I sleep.
3. The quantity of junk foods I consume daily and
4. Cultivation of the habit of spending time alone daily.
B. My days are always very busy, so I do not engage at all in physical exercise. Adding at least a thirty minute of physical exercise to my daily tasks will improve my health considerable. Due to the nature of my day, I usually eat on the move, thus I eat junk foods everyday. Eating healthy and balanced diet will go a long way in improving my health. I sleep for three hours only everyday, from 2 am to 5 am.This is because I have to leave my house very early in the morning and I don't usually get to sleep until 2 am in the morning. Spending more hours sleeping will improve my overall health. I want to start spending at least 30 minutes alone on a daily basis in order to meditate and to reflect over the events of the day. This will be a great boost to my mental health.

Help would be greatly appreciated:) thank you! a pendulum clock is brought to mars. How does the bob move on Mars as compared to

Alborosie

It runs slower <span>as gravity is lower so acceleration due to gravity is smaller</span>

A spring with spring constant of 34 N/m is stretched 0.12 m from its equilibrium position. How much work must be done to stretch

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:0.253Joules

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the force required to stretch the string. According to Hooke's law, the force applied to an elastic material or string is directly proportional to its extension.

F = ke where;

F is the force

k is spring constant = 34N/m

e is the extension = 0.12m

F = 34× 0.12 = 4.08N

To get work done,

Work is said to be done if the force applied to an object cause the body to move a distance from its initial position.

Work done = Force × Distance

Since F = 4.08m, distance = 0.062m

Work done = 4.08 × 0.062

Work done = 0.253Joules

Therefore, work done to stretch the string to an additional 0.062 m distance is 0.253Joules
