Why are infrared waves located between microwaves and visible light on the electromagnetic spectrum?

Physics

dangina [55]3 years ago

Answer: The infra red waves is located between microwave and visible light based on their WAVELENGTH and FREQUENCY of occurrence.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are those waves that do not require or need a material medium for its propagation, but they are able to travel through a vacuum. They exhibit or show all properties associated or connected with light. They are undeflected in electric and magnetic fields. These electromagnetic waves are arranged in order of their FREQUENCY and WAVELENGTHS which is known as ELECTROMAGNETIC SPECTRUM.

FREQUENCY is defined as the number of cycles which the wave completes in one second and is measured in Hertz(Hz). While WAVELENGTH is defined as the distance between two successive crests or troughs of waves which is measured in meter (m).

The electromagnetic spectrum is made up of the following rays which is arranged from the biggest wavelengths to the smallest:

--> Radiowaves

--> microwave :

--> infrared rays:

--> visible light:

--> ultraviolet rays

--> x-rays and

--> Gamma rays.

According to the arrangement of the spectrum above, the microwave has a higher wavelength and frequency than the infrared rays, while the visible light has a lower wavelength and frequency than the infrared rays.

Two ice skaters, Lilly and John, face each other while at rest, and then push against each other's hands. The mass of John is tw
seropon [69]

Answer:

Lilly's speed is two times John's speed.

Explanation:

m = Mass

a = Acceleration

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

The force they apply on each other will be equal

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a_l=\frac{F}{m_l}

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a_j=\frac{F}{2m_l}\\\Rightarrow a_j=\frac{1}{2}a_l

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v_l=0+\frac{F}{m_l}\times t\\\Rightarrow v_l=a_lt

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v_l=0+\frac{F}{2m_l}\times t\\\Rightarrow v_j=\frac{1}{2}a_lt\\\Rightarrow v_j=\frac{1}{2}v_l\\\Rightarrow v_l=2v_j

Hence, Lilly's speed is two times John's speed.
