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.

At a particular instant, an electron moves toward the east in a uniform magnetic field that is directed straight downward. the m
alexdok [17]

Answer:

towards the south

Explanation:

When the electron enters the region with magnetic field, it experiences a magnetic force perpendicular to both the directions of the electron's velocity and the magnetic field.

The direction of the force exerted on the electron can be found by using the right-hand rule:

- Index finger: direction of the velocity of the electron --> towards the east

- Middle finger: direction of the magnetic field --> downward

- Thumb: direction of the force on a positive particle --> towards the north

However, the electron is a negatively charged particle, so we must reverse the direction of the force: therefore, the force exerted on the electron is towards the south.
