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.

Reika [66]

Answer:

The boats are  934.65 feet apart

Explanation:

Given:

The angles of depression to the two boats are 42 degrees and 29 degrees

Height of the observation deck i =  1,353 feet

To Find:

How far apart are the boats (y )= ?

Solution:

<em><u>Step 1 : Finding the value of x(Refer the figure attached)</u></em>

We can use the tangent ratio to find the x value

tan(42^{\circ}) = \frac{1353}{x}

x = \frac{1353}{tan(42^{\circ}) }

x = 590.47 feet

<em><u>Step 2 : Finding the value of  z (Refer the figure attached)</u></em>

tan(29^{\circ}) = \frac{1353}{z }

z  = \frac{1353}{tan(29^{\circ})}

z = 1525.12  feet

<em><u>Step 3 : Finding the value of  y (Refer the figure attached</u></em>)

y =  z -x

y = 1525.12 - 590.47

y = 934.65 feet

Thus the two boats are 934.65 feet apart

<h3><u>Volume is 0.1848 m³</u></h3><h3 />

Explanation:

<h2>Given:</h2>

m = 49.9 kg

ρ = 270 kg/m³

<h2>Required:</h2>

volume

<h2>Equation:</h2>

ρ \:= \:\frac{m}{v}

where: ρ - density

m - mass

v - volume

<h2>Solution:</h2>

Substitute the value of ρ and m

ρ \:= \:\frac{m}{v}

270\: kg/m³\:= \:\frac{49.9\:kg}{v}

(v)\:270\: kg/m³\:= \:49.9\:kg

v\:= \:\frac{49.9\:kg}{270\: kg/m³}

v\:= \:0.1848\:m³

<h2>Final Answer:</h2><h3><u>Volume is 0.1848 m³</u></h3>
