Electromagnetic radiation in order of increasing (lowest to highest) frequency is Radio waves < Green visible light < UV radiation.

<h3>What is Frequency?</h3>

This is defined as the rate at which something occurs or is repeated over a particular period of time. The unit of frequency is referred to as Hertz.

Electromagnetic radiations with increasing frequency can be seen below:

Radio waves, microwaves, infrared waves, visible light, ultraviolet radiations, X rays, γ rays.

Two charges (q1 = 3.8*10-6C, q2 = 3.2*10-6C) are separated by a distance of d = 3.25 m. Consider q1 to be located at the origin.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The distance is 1.69 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge $q_{1}= 3.8\times10^{-6}\ C$

Second charge $q_{2}=3.2\times10^{-6}\ C$

Distance = 3.25 m

We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of electric field

$E_{1}=E_{2}$

$\dfrac{kq_{1}}{x^2}=\dfrac{kq_{2}}{(d-x)^2}$

$\dfrac{q_{1}}{q_{2}}=\dfrac{(x)^2}{(d-x)^2}$

$\sqrt{\dfrac{q_{1}}{q_{2}}}=\dfrac{x}{d-x}$

$x=(d-x)\times\sqrt{\dfrac{q_{1}}{q_{2}}}$

Put the value into the formula

$x=(3.25-x)\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}$

$x+x\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}=3.25\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}$

$x(1+\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}})=3.25\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}$

$x=\dfrac{3.25\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}}{(1+\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}})}$

$x=1.69\ m$

Hence, The distance is 1.69 m.

When you look ahead while driving, it is best to:

vodka [1.7K]

I think its [B]
Personally i would say [B] only because If you are looking beyond the car in front of you..... then what if the car in front of you throws on breaks... you would hit them in the butt because you weren't paying attention to the car.
And majority of the time if your looking in the lanes beside you then you are most likely trying to get in that lane.
