Answer:As people get older, most become better able to regulate negative feelings and emphasize the positive.

Explanation: With age, your skin thins and becomes less elastic and more fragile, and fatty tissue just below the skin decreases. You might notice that you bruise more easily. Decreased production of natural oils might make your skin drier. Wrinkles, age spots and small growths called skin tags are more common.

Place the following types of electromagnetic radiation in order from LOWEST energy

Alex

Placing the electromagnetic radiation in order from the lowest energy to the highest energy : ( 2 ) C,A,B

<h3>Electromagnetic spectrum </h3>

In the electromagnetic spectrum the electromagnetic radiation with the shorter wavelength possess a higher energy while the electromagnetic radiation with a longer wavelength possess the lower energy.

The electromagnetic radiation as listed in the question with the longest wavelength is the radio waves therefore it possess the lowest energy while the radiation with the shortest wavelength is the gamma rays therefore it possess the highest energy.

Hence we can conclude that Placing the electromagnetic radiation in order from the lowest energy to the highest energy : ( 2 ) C,A,B

The boiling point of water at sea level is 100 °c. at higher altitudes, the boiling point of water will be

Scilla [17]

<span> The boiling point of water at sea level is 100 °C. At higher altitudes, the boiling point of water will be.....
a) higher, because the altitude is greater.
b) lower, because temperatures are lower.
c) the same, because water always boils at 100 °C.
d) higher, because there are fewer water molecules in the air.
==> e) lower, because the atmospheric pressure is lower.
--------------------------
Water boils at a lower temperature on top of a mountain because there is less air pressure on the molecules.

Each driver has mass 79.0 kg. Including the masses of the drivers, the total masses of the vehicles are 800 kg for the car and 4

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Force exerted on the car driver by the seatbelt = 8139.4 N = 8.14 kN

Force exerted on the truck driver by the seatbelt = 1628.2 N = 1.63 kN

It is evident that the driver of the smaller vehicle has it worse. The car driver is in way more danger in this perfectly inelastic head-on collision with a bigger vehicle (the truck).

Explanation:

First of, we calculate the velocity of the vehicles after collision using the law of conservation of Momentum

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

Since the collision of the two vehicles was described as a head-on collision, for the sake of consistent convention, we will take the direction of the velocity of the bigger vehicle (the truck) as the positive direction and the direction of the car's velocity automatically is the negative direction.

Velocity of the truck before collision = 6.80 m/s

Velocity of the car before collision = -6.80 m/s

Let the velocity of the inelastic unit of vehicles after collision be v

Momentum before collision = (4000)(6.80) + (800)(-6.80) = 27200 - 5440 = 21,760 kgm/s

Momentum after collision = (4000 + 800)(v) = (4800v) kgm/s

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

21760 = 4800v

v = (21760/4800)

v = 4.533 m/s (in the direction of the big vehicle (the truck)

So, we then apply Newton's second law of motion which explains that the magnitude change in momentum is equal to the magnitude of impulse.

|Impulse| = |Change in momentum|

But Impulse = (Force exerted on each driver by the seatbelt) × (collision time) = (F×t)

Change in momentum = (Momentum after collision) - (Momentum before collision)

So, for the driver of the truck

Initial velocity = 6.80 m/s (the driver moves with the velocity of the truck)

Final velocity = 4.533 m/s

Change in momentum of the truck driver = (79)(6.80) - (79)(4.533) = 179.1 kgm/s

(F×t) = 179.1

F × 0.110 = 179.1

F = (179.1/0.11)

F = 1628.2 N = 1.63 kN

So, for the driver of the car

Initial velocity = -6.80 m/s (the driver moves with the velocity of the car)

Final velocity = 4.533 m/s

Change in momentum of the car driver = (79)(-6.80) - (79)(4.533) = -895.3 kgm/s

(F×t) = |-895.3|

F × 0.110 = 895.3

F = (895.3/0.11)

F = 8139.4 N = 8.14 kN

Hope this Helps!!!

If the area of an iron rod is 10 cm by 0.5 cm and length is 35 cm. Find the value of resistance, if 11x10^-8 ohm.m be the resist

malfutka [58]

Answer:

Resistance of the iron rod, R = 0.000077 ohms

Explanation:

It is given that,

Area of iron rod, $A=10\ cm\times 0.5\ cm=5\ cm^2 = 0.0005\ m^2$

Length of the rod, L = 35 cm = 0.35 m

Resistivity of Iron, $\rho=11\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m$

We need to find the resistance of the iron rod. It is given by :

$R=\rho\dfrac{L}{A}$

$R=11\times 10^{-8}\times \dfrac{0.35\ m}{0.0005\ m^2}$

$R=0.000077 \Omega$

So, the resistance of the rod is 0.000077 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.
