1) Arrange the following spectral regions in order of increasing energy: infrared, microwave, ultraviolet, visible.
Anton [14]

Answer:

The order of increasing energy is as follows

"microwave < infrared < visible < ultraviolet"

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Given:

Arrange the following spectral regions in order of increasing energy: infrared, microwave, ultraviolet, visible.

From the formula of energy in terms of frequency.

  E = hf

Where h = planck constant, f = frequency of light.

From above formula we can conclude that higher frequency means higher energy.

In our case ultraviolet has higher frequency and microwave has lower frequency.

So ultraviolet has higher energy and microwave has lower energy.

microwave < infrared < visible < ultraviolet

Therefore, the order of increasing energy is as follows

"microwave < infrared < visible < ultraviolet"

The kinetic energy of a proton and that of an a-particle are 4 eV and 1 eV,
madam [21]

Answer:

  • <u><em>(b) 1:1</em></u>

Explanation:

<u></u>

<u>1. Formulae:</u>

  • E = hf  
  • E = h.v/λ
  • λ = h/(mv)
  • E = (1/2)mv²

Where:

  • E = kinetic energy of the particle
  • λ = de-Broglie wavelength
  • m = mass of the particle
  • v = speed of the particle
  • h = Planck constant

<u><em>2. Reasoning</em></u>

An alha particle contains 2 neutrons and 2 protons, thus its mass number is 4.

A proton has mass number 1.

Thus, the relative masses of an alpha particle and a proton are:

       \dfrac{m_\alpha}{m_p}=4

For the kinetic energies you find:

          \dfrac{E_\alpha}{E_p}=\dfrac{m_\alpha \times v_\alpha^2}{m_p\times v_p^2}

            \dfrac{1eV}{4eV}=\dfrac{4\times v_\alpha^2}{1\times v_p^2}\\\\\\\dfrac{v_p^2}{v_\alpha^2}=16\\\\\\\dfrac{v_p}{v_\alpha}=4

Thus:

           \dfrac{m_\alpha}{m_p}=4=\dfrac{v_p}{v__\alpha}

          m_\alpha v_\alpha=m_pv_p

From de-Broglie equation, λ = h/(mv)  

       \dfrac{\lambda_p}{\lambda_\alpha}=\dfrac{m_\lambda v_\lambda}{m_pv_p}=\dfrac{1}{1}=1:1

Which of the following is a possible use for nuclear energy?
belka [17]
<span>Nuclear energy can be used to power all of the above choices. Nuclear power plants produce radioactive waste that must be stored properly. It is very impossible for a nuclear power plant to have no waste at all since lots of chemicals are used to create the process as it gives energy to other machines, weapons such as bombs and  powering submarines.  Radioactive waste can not be released into local water supplies since the wastes are very radioactive and may cause mutation to the fishes and bioaccumulation which will affect humans as well. It will also cause air pollution if the chemicals are not stored properly.</span>

Your job is to lift 30 kgkg crates a vertical distance of 0.90 mm from the ground onto the bed of a truck. For related problem-s
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The number of crates is 84580.

Explanation:

mass, m = 30 kg

height, h = 0.9 mm  

Power, P = 0.5 hp = 0.5 x 746 W = 373 W

time, t = 1 minute = 60 s

Let the number of crates is n.

Power is given by the rate of doing work.

P = \frac{n m gh}{t}\\\373 =\frac{n\times 30\times9.8\times 0.9\times 10^{-3}}{60}\\\\n =84580

A car speeds up from 18.54 m/s to<br> 29.52 m/s in 13.84 s.<br> The acceleration of the car is:
valkas [14]

Answer:

.7934m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Acceleration = change in velocity / change in time

A = 10.98m/s / 13.84s

A = .7934m/s^{2}
