What is the electromagnetic spectrum used for?

Physics

Answer:

The electromagnetic spectrum is used for identifying what type a wave is. For example, a  wave with a very low frequency would be a radio wave, and a wave with a very high wavelength would be a gamma wave.

Let me know if this helps!

Answer:  Astronomers use the entire electromagnetic spectrum to observe a variety of things. Radio waves and microwaves – the longest wavelengths and lowest energies of light – are used to peer inside dense interstellar clouds and track the motion of cold, dark gas

A woman drops a vibrating tuning fork, which is vibrating at 513 Hertz, from a tall building. Through what distance (in m) has t
umka21 [38]

Answer:

h = 15.34 m

Explanation:

given,

tuning fork vibration = 513 Hz

speed of sound = 343 m/s

frequency after deflection = 489 Hz

the source (the fork) moves away from the observer, its speed increases and hence the apparent frequency decreases

f_{apparent} = \dfrac{v}{v+u}f_0

489 = \dfrac{343}{343+u}\times 513

0.953 = \dfrac{343}{343+u}

343+u = \dfrac{343}{0.953}

343+u = 359.92

u = 16.92 m/s

height of the building

v² = u² + 2 g s

16.92² = 2 x 9.8 x h

h = 14.61 m

time taken by sound to reach observer

t = \dfrac{14.61}{343}

t =0.0426\ s

in this time tuning fork has fallen one more now,

h' = u t + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h' = 16.92\times 0.0426 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times 0.0426^2

h' = 0.7296 m = 0.73 m

total distance

      h = 14.61 + 0.73

      h = 15.34 m

Our Sun is one of many stars in the Milky Way galaxy. Earth is closer to the Sun than any other star. This is evident because A)
monitta

Our Sun is one of many stars in the Milky Way galaxy. Earth is closer to the Sun than any other star. This is evident because " we rely on the Sun's radiant energy on Earth".

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Sun produces much radiant energy which is distributed as light to the Earth. Plants supports only process called photosynthesis for their food production, transform the electromagnetic energy in sunlight into chemical energy for their food. Radiant electromagnetic waves can be either visible or invisible.

Maximum solar radiation is absorbed by the atmosphere, but much of what hits the surface of the earth is emitted back into the atmosphere for heat energy to result. Dark colored items like asphalt consume radiant energy more easily than objects colored with light.

Permanent magnet. An induced magnet would be created when a piece of iron (for example) is in contact with a magnet. Temporary magnets would be something like an electromagnet. Bar magnets are permanently magnetic unless we heat them or hammer them to cause their domains to loose alignment.

Calculate the force exerted by a mental ball having a mass of 70kg moving with speed of 20m/s&gt;2
lord [1]

Answer:

F = 1400 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 70 kg

It is moving with an acceleration of 20 m/s². We need to find the force exerted by the ball.

Force is given by the product of mass and acceleration. So,

F = ma

F=70\ kg\times \ 20m/s^2\\\\F=1400\ N

So, the force of 1400 N is exerted by a metal ball.
