<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>

andreev551 [17]

Answer:2.517 J/K

Explanation:

Given

Reservoir 1 Temperature T_1=781 K

Reservoir 2 Temperature T_2=335 K

Let Q is the amount of heat Flows i.e. Q=1477 J

thus change in Entropy is given by \frac{\sum Q}{T}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-\frac{Q}{T_1}+\frac{Q}{T_2}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-\frac{1477}{781}+\frac{1477}{335}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-1.891+4.4089

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=2.517 J/K

What is number 30,31 in this picture?
Maslowich
On question 30, that is a displacement- time graph (DT). On this type of graph the gradient is equal to the velocity. B has the steepest gradient, then A and finally C

Now velocity is a vector quantity so it has a direction and speed ( speed doesn't have a fixed direction.)

on the DT graph im going to assume that movement B is a positive velocity with A and C being negative. 
So by ranking these: A is the most negative, C is the least negative and B has to be the greatest as it is the only positive velocity. 

Q31, The same type of graph is present, by looking at the gradients we can rank the largest and smallest velocities- speeds in the case of the question. 
i'll skip my working out as its the same as before:

C, B, A and then D

the same idea as on Q30 applies to Q31 part b, 

D,C,B then A

45.678 g to 4 digits
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

<h2>45.68 g</h2>

Explanation:

Given 45.678 g, converting the value to 4 digits is similar to converting the decimal number to 4 significant figure. We can see that the decimal number initially contains 5 numbers. To covert to a 4 digits number we will convert the last digit which is 8 to 0 because 0 is insignificant.

If the number we are converting to zero is more than 4 then the preceding number (7) will be rounded up by adding 1 to it

The decimal number will become 45.68.

Note that the value of 7 was rounded up to 8 since the value we are converting to zero is more than 4.

<em>Hence the decimal value in 4 digits is 45.68 g</em>
