Answer:

A. Gamma rays have higher energy than microwaves because gamma rays have shorter wavelengths.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves produced by the interaction between both magnetic and electric fields. These waves have some properties that make them to be arranged in a definite form producing an electromagnetic spectrum.

The spectrum has a general property of which as the wavelength of the waves increases, the frequency decreases. And vice versa.

Thus, the energy of the waves increases as the frequency increases.

Gamma rays have higher frequency, but shorter wavelength. While microwaves has lower frequency, but higher wavelength.

a baby carriage is sitting at the top of a hill that is 21 m high. the carriage with the baby has a mass of 1.5 kg. the carriage

Serga [27]

Height of baby carriage from ground = 21m

Mass of carriage with baby = 1.5 kg

The carriage has potential energy by virtue of its height.

Potential energy = mgh = 1.5×10×21 = 315 J

Hence, potential energy of the carriage is 315 Joule.

An ice skater has a moment of inertia of 5.0 kgm2 when her arms are outstretched. at this time she is spinning at 3.0 revolution

givi [52]

With arms outstretched,
Moment of inertia is I = 5.0 kg-m².
Rotational speed is ω = (3 rev/s)*(2π rad/rev) = 6π rad/s
The torque required is
T = Iω = (5.0 kg-m²)*(6π rad/s) = 30π

Assume that the same torque drives the rotational motion at a moment of inertia of 2.0 kg-m².
If u = new rotational speed (rad/s), then
T = 2u = 30π
u = 15π rad/s
= (15π rad/s)*(1 rev/2π rad)
= 7.5 rev/s

Answer: 7.5 revolutions per second.

A ball with a momentum of 16 kg.M/s strikes a ball at rest. What is the total momentum of both the balls after the collision.

melomori [17]

Answer:

Total momentum = 16 Kgm/s

Explanation:

Let the momentum of the two balls be A and B respectively.

Momentum A = 16 kgm/s

Momentum B = 0 kgm/s (since the ball is at rest).

Total momentum = A + B

Total momentum = 16 + 0

Total momentum = 16 Kgm/s

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

$Momentum = mass * velocity$
