Answer:

gravity

Explanation:

Gravity as well as electrostatic and magnetic attraction and repulsion provide real life examples of forces being exerted by one object on another without them being in contact with each other. Many children are aware of magnetism and have played with fridge magnets.

Place the following types of electromagnetic radiation in order from LOWEST energy
Alex

Placing the electromagnetic radiation in order from the lowest energy to the highest energy :  ( 2 ) C,A,B

<h3>Electromagnetic spectrum </h3>

In the electromagnetic spectrum the electromagnetic radiation with the shorter wavelength possess a higher energy while the electromagnetic radiation with a longer wavelength possess the lower energy.

The electromagnetic radiation as listed in the question with the longest wavelength is the radio waves therefore it possess the lowest energy while the radiation with the shortest wavelength is the gamma rays therefore it possess the highest energy.

Hence we can conclude that Placing the electromagnetic radiation in order from the lowest energy to the highest energy :  ( 2 ) C,A,B

A man is standing on the shore of a beach, up to his knees in water. Every second two waves hit him. What is the frequency of th
laila [671]

Answer:

f = 2 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is defined as the no. of waves passing per unit of time. Therefore, the frequency of a wave can be calculated by the following formula:

f = \frac{n}{t}

where,

f = frequency of the wave = ?

t = time passed = 1 s

n = no. of waves passing in time t = 2

Therefore,

f = \frac{2}{1\ s}

<u>f = 2 Hz</u>

6. An earthquake releases two types of traveling seismic waves, called transverse and longitudinal waves. The average speed of t
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

The distance away the center of the earthquake is 1083.24 km.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of transverse wave = 9.1\ km/s

Speed of longitudinal wave = 5.7 km/s

Time = 71 sec

We need to calculate the distance of transverse wave

Using formula of distance

d=v\times t

d=9.1\times t....(I)

The distance of longitudinal wave

d=5.7\times (t+71)....(II)

From the first equation

t=\dfrac{d}{9.1}

Put the value of t in equation (II)

d =5.7\times(\dfrac{d}{9.1}+71)

\dfrac{9.1d-5.7d}{9.1}=71\times5.7

d0.3736=404.7

d =1083.24\ km

Hence, The distance away the center of the earthquake is 1083.24 km.

Of waterfalls with a height of more than 50 m , Niagara Falls in Canada has the highest flow rate of any waterfall in the world.
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Power output: W=1426.9MW

Explanation:

The power output of the falls is given mainly by its change in potential energy:

Q=-P_{tot}=-(P_{2}-P_{1})

The potential energy for any point can be calculated as:

P=m*g*h

If we consider the base of the falls to be the reference height, at point 2 h=0, so P2=0, and height at point 1 equals 52m:

Q=P_{1}=m*g*h

If we replace m with the mass rate M we obtain the rate of change in potential energy over time, so the power generated:

W=M*g*h=2.8*10^{3}m^{3}/s*1*10^{3}kg/m^{3}*9.8m/s^{2}*52m =1426.9MW
