<span>The visible light has wavelength in the range 400 - 700 nano-meters. The wavelengths longer than visible light are: 1-Infrared waves (used in ringtone/mobile waves)2-microwaves - used to heat and cook food. 3- Radio waves - used in communication purposes.</span>

A rubber balloon is filled with 1 L of air at 1 atm and 300 K and is then put into a cryogenic refrigerator at 100 K. The rubber
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The correct answers are

(a) It decreases to 1/3 L

(ii) is (c) It is constant

Explanation:

to solve this, we list out the number of knowns and unknowns so as to determine the correct equation to solve the problem

The given variables are as follows

Initial volume V1 = 1L

V2 = Unknown

Initial Temperature T1 = 300K

let us assume that the balloon is perfectly elastic

At 300K the balloon is filled and it stretches to maintain 1 atmosphere

at 100K the content of the balloon cools reducing the excitement of the gas content which also reduces the pressure, however, the balloon being perfectly elastic, contracts to maintain the 1 atmospheric pressure, hence the answer to (ii) is (c) It is constant,

For (i) since we know that the pressure of the balloon is constant

by Charles Law V1/T1 =V2/T2

or V2 = (V1/T1)×T2 =\frac{1L}{300K}× 100K= \frac{1}{3} × L = L/3 hence the correct answer to (i) is 1/3L

Nuclear winter story. A crazy president is trying to solve the global warming problem and has successfully built a powerful H-bo
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

A nuclear winter is a climatic phenomenon that would follow the detonation of several atomic bombs in the event that a nuclear war broke out. These bombs would cause firestorms that would raise smoke, dust and particles into the atmosphere that would end up in the stratosphere and eventually spread throughout the globe.

Explanation:

That idea is far fetched, because even though those same particles would absorb sunlight, it would raise the temperature in the stratosphere and cause a decrease in temperature in the Earth's layer. Unable to seep the sun's rays, many plant species would die and this would affect the entire food chain.

In addition, that temperature rise in the stratosphere would destroy part of the ozone layer, causing greater exposure to ultraviolet rays. This would end up affecting health and further damaging plant species.
