The shortest wavelength of visible light = violet light
Energy that can be felt as heat but not seen = infrared
Short, invisible rays that can cause eye damage = ultraviolet
Visible light with the longest wavelength = red light
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves are waves consisting of oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field, occurring in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.
They are the only type of waves able to travel without a medium, and they are transverse in nature.
All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum at the speed of light, which value is:
Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different classes, depending on their wavelength/frequency, and they have different properties. From shortest to longest wavelength (and from highest to lowest frequency), they are:
Gamma rays
X rays
Ultraviolet
Visible light
Infrared radiation
Microwaves
Radio waves
Moreover, the visible light of the spectrum is further divided into different colors, according to how our eye perceive them; from shortest to longest wavelength:
violet
blue
green
yellow
orange
red
Therefore, we have:
- The shortest wavelength of visible light is violet light, which has wavelength between 380 and 450 nm
- The longest wavelength of visible light is red light, which has wavelenght between 620 and 750 nm
- Infrared radiation is a type of radiation that is felt as heat by our body, however it cannot be seen because it falls outside the spectrum of visible light
- Ultraviolet radiation is also invisible to human eye; it has shorter wavelength than visible light and therefore it has more frequency (and more energy), therefore it can cause damage, especially to the eye

Refer to the diagram shown below.
By definition momentum = mass * velocity.
Before throwing the ball:
The initial momentum is
P₁ = 0.
After throwing the ball:
Let u = the backward velocity of the quarterback.
The momentum is
P₂ = (0.43 kg)*(15 m/s) + (80 kg)*(- u m/s)
Conservation of momentum requires that
P₂ = P₁
6.45 - 80u = 0
u = 6.45/80 = 0.0806 m/s
Answer: 0.08 m/s backward
The minimum speed that the second swimmer must have in order to catch up with the first swimmer by the end of the pool is; <u><em>4.04 m/s</em></u>
We are given the following facts;
- Both swimmers swim the same distance of 50 m for a leg of the relay race.
- Swimmer 1 swims at constant speed of 3.9 m/s.
- Swimmer 1 has a 0.450 second head start.
Formula for time taken is;
time = distance/speed
Time taken by swimmer 1 for one leg;
t₁ = 50/3.9
t₁ = 12.82 s
Since swimmer 1 has a head start of 0.45 s, then time that swimmer 2 must use in order to catch up is;
t₂ = 12.82 -0.45
t₂ = 12.37 s
Thus, speed of swimmer 2;
v = 50/12.37
v = 4.04 m/s

In order to determine this, we will first need some conversions. We will need to convert metric tons and grams into one another and also cubic centimeters to cubic meters into one another.
1 metric ton = 1000 kg
1 kg = 1000 grams
1 metric ton = 10⁶ grams
So 10⁶ grams / metric ton
1 meter = 100 cm
1 m³ = (100)³ cm³
1 m³ = 10⁶ cm³
So 10⁶ cm⁶ / m³
Now, we manipulate the given value:
(19.3 grams / cm³) * (1 metric ton / 10⁶ grams) * (10⁶ cm³ / m³)
= 19.3 metric tons / m³
The density of gold is 19.3 metric tons meter meter cubed.
Answer:Dr. Hess' most significant contribution to the plate tectonic theory began in 1945 when he was the commander of the U.S.S. ... In the paper Hess described how hot magma would rise from under the crust at the Great Global Rift. When the magma cooled, it would expand and push the tectonic plates apart.
