Answer:

Based on the passage, the article's claim is not true. Therefore, the answer is:

No, because radio waves have energies that are too low to fall in the ionizing range.

Explanation:

Radio waves are generally known as forms of non-ionizing radiation. This means that they do not have enough energy, unlike microwaves, to separate electrons from atoms or molecules, thereby ionizing them. They cannot cause electron displacement, as claimed in the article. Therefore, they cannot break chemical bonds, which can cause chemical reactions or DNA damage. As non-ionizing radiation, radio waves occur at lower frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Why do bones weaken as a person gets older

Answer:

The bones aren't as strong as a younger person, because an older person, ages due to time and it also depend on what they do in their past.

A tennis ball is served horizontally from 2.4m above the ground at net is 12m away and point 0.9 high will be ball clear the net

Schach [20]

Explanation:

Let us first calculate long does it take to go 12m at 30m/s( assumed speed)

12/30 = 0.4 seconds

horizontal distance the ball drop in that time

H= (0)(0.4)+1/2(-9.8)(0.4)2

H= -0.78m

negative sign shows that the height of the ball at the net from the top.

Height of the ball at the net and from the ground= H1-H=2.4-0.78=1.62m

As 1.62m>0.9m so the ball will clear the net.

H_1= V0y t’ + ½ g t’^2

-2.4= (0)t’ + ½ (-9.8) t’^2

t’= 0.69s

X’=V0x t’

X’=(30)(0.96)

X’= 20.7m

Two ladybugs sit on a rotating disk that is slowing down at a constant rate. The ladybugs are at rest with respect to the surfac

d1i1m1o1n [39]

The two ladybugs have same rotational (angular) speed

Explanation:

The rotational (angular) speed of an object in circular motion is defined as:

$\omega=\frac{\theta}{t}$

where

$\theta$ is the angular displacement

t is the time interval considered

Here we have two ladybugs, which are located at two different distances from the axis. In particular, ladybug 1 is halfway between ladybug 2 and the axis of rotation. However, since they rotate together with the disk, and the disk is a rigid body, every point of the disk cover the same angle $\theta$ in the same time $t$ : this means that every point along the disk has the same angular speed, and therefore the two ladybugs also have the same angular speed.
