Answer:

The order of increasing energy is as follows

"microwave < infrared < visible < ultraviolet"

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Given:

Arrange the following spectral regions in order of increasing energy: infrared, microwave, ultraviolet, visible.

From the formula of energy in terms of frequency.

$E = hf$

Where $h =$ planck constant, $f =$ frequency of light.

From above formula we can conclude that higher frequency means higher energy.

In our case ultraviolet has higher frequency and microwave has lower frequency.

So ultraviolet has higher energy and microwave has lower energy.

microwave < infrared < visible < ultraviolet

Therefore, the order of increasing energy is as follows

"microwave < infrared < visible < ultraviolet"

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The answer is "Option C".

Explanation:

Computation modeling is used as the software for math, physics, or software engineering in the simulation and study of complicated processes. The software framework incorporates many parameters, that characterize the model under study. It is a computer program, in which the mathematical formula is generated by computers and research complex systems.

Three deer, a, b, and c, are grazing in a field. deer b is located 62.1 m from deer a at an angle of 54.3 ° north of west. deer

sveticcg [70]

by cosine law we know that

$c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2 abcos\theta$

$\theta = 180 - 54.3 - 79.1 = 46.6 degree$

now using above equation

$93.8^2 = 62.1^2 + b^2 - 2*62.1*b * cos46.6$

$4942.03 = b^2 - 85.34 b$

$b^2 - 85.34b - 4942.03 = 0$

by solving above quadratic equation we have

$b = 124.9 m$

so it is at distance 124.9 m from deer a

A 380-N girl walks down a flight of stairs so that she is 2.5 m below her starting level. What is the change in the girl's gravi

Svetach [21]

PEg = Mass x Height x Gravity. So it doesn't matter how much PEg she started with, since you're finding how much it changed when she walked down 2.5 meters of stairs. So by plugging into the equation, you'll find how much potential energy was lost by walking down. (I'll leave it up to you since idk if you use 10 or 9.8 as gravity)

The bar graph shows the population of male and female deer in a forest, measured in 10-year intervals. According to the graph, w

saul85 [17]

Answer: option D. the ratio of the population of male deer is not constant.

Explanation:

The bar graph permits to compare the results for two different populations: male and female deer in a very easy visual way.

These features are remarkable:

The polulation of male deer (blue bars) decrease from 1961 to 1971, then increase in the next 10 year, decrease in the next decade, and increase for the next two decades. So, its trend is erratic, with ups and downs.

This discards the option A, which states that the population of male deer increases each decade from 1961 to 2011.

The population of female deer (purple or brown bars) decreases every decade.

This discards the option B. which states that when the polulation of male deer increases, the poluplation of female deer also increases.

The populations never are equal, hence this discards the option C.

Since, one popultion increases and decreases, while the other population only decreases, you conclude that the ratio of the population of male deer to female deer is not constant, which is the option D.
