Answer:

Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions.

Explanation:

Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells.

Hope this helps!

• ¿Qué rapidez tendrá un sonido de 150 Hz con una longitud de onda de 2 metros?

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Speed = 300 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Frequency = 150 Hz

Wavelength = 2 meters

To find the speed of the wave;

Mathematically, the speed of a wave is given by the formula:

$Speed = wavelength * frequency$

Substituting into the formula, we have;

$Speed = 2 * 150$

Speed = 300 m/s

A harmonic wave on a string with a mass per unit length of 0.050 kg/m and a tension of 60 N has an amplitude of 5.0 cm. Each sec

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Power of the string wave will be equal to 5.464 watt

Explanation:

We have given mass per unit length is 0.050 kg/m

Tension in the string T = 60 N

Amplitude of the wave A = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Frequency f = 8 Hz

So angular frequency $\omega =2\pi f=2\times 3.14\times 8=50.24rad/sec$

Velocity of the string wave is equal to $v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }}=\sqrt{\frac{60}{0.050}}=34.641m/sec$

Power of wave propagation is equal to $P=\frac{1}{2}\mu \omega ^2vA^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.050\times 50.24^2\times 34.641\times 0.05^2=5.464watt$

So power of the wave will be equal to 5.464 watt

A ticker timer makes 50 dots per second. When a body is pulled by a tap through the timer, the distance between the third and fo

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The acceleration is 1 cm/s^2.

Explanation:

The acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

Here, initial velocity, u = 3/1 = 3 cm/s

final velocity, v = 4/1 = 4 cm/s

time, t = 1 s

Let the acceleration is a.

Use first equation of motion

v = u + at

4 = 3 + 1 x a

a = 1 cm/s^2
