What is the similarity and the principal difference between a beam of X-rays and a beam of light?

Physics
1 answer:
kati45 [8]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Both are part of a family in physics which scientists refer to as the electromagnetic spectrum. All waves in this spectrum including light and x-rays travel at the same speed (3*10^8 m/s in a vacuum). However they differ in their wavelength and frequencies through the equation-----speed of light=wavelength multiplied by frequency.

Light may have a higher frequency than x-rays but lower wavelength. Either way they both multiply to receive the speed of light as the answer.

Give examples of not useful high friction
Tatiana [17]
Friction can be bad by being too strong or too weak. 

<span>Sometimes, when it is too strong, it decreases efficiency since some energy is wasted and turns to heat. Friction can also d</span><span>amage equipment/objects like when you slide it on the floor.

When friction is too weak, like for instance when there is black ice- our center of gravity is displaced too quickly and we can fall. Likewise, if there is a lot of slush on the ground, cars can slip and slide.

a torch bulb is rated 2.5V and 750mA. Calculate its power,its resistance and the energy consumed if this bulb lighted for 4 hour
Hatshy [7]
Using Ohm's Law, we can derived from this the value of resistance. If I=V/R, therefore, R = V/I
Substituting the values to the given, 
P = Power = ?
R = Resistance = ?
V = Voltage = 2.5 V
I = Current = 750 mA

R = V/I = 2.5/ (750 x 10^-3)
R = 3.33 ohms

Calculating the power, we have P = IV

P = (750 x 10^-3)(2.5) 
P = 1.875 W

The power consumption is the power consumed multiply by the number of hours. In here, we have;
1.875W x 4 hours = 7.5 watt-hours
