Answer:

For infrared and ultraviolet waves have different frequencies. Both types of wave can have harmful effects on human beings. Describe the harmful effects of infrared and ultraviolet waves, relating them to the frequencies of the waves. Medical studies indicate that prolonged IR exposure can lead to lens, cornea and retina damage, including cataracts, corneal ulcers and retinal burns, respectively. To help protect against long-term IR exposure, workers can wear products with IR filters or reflective coatings.When you look at the EM spectrum, UV waves are quite a bit smaller in wavelength than infrared, and x-rays/gamma rays are even smaller. Therefore, UV waves are probably causing more harm than infrared waves, and x-rays/gamma rays are probably doing even more damage.

How would you go about separating the components of a mixture of sand, gravel, salt and iron filings
larisa86 [58]

Pour the entire components into water.

First the iron filings can be separated using a magnet as iron is a magnetic element.

By pouring the mixture into water, it allows the salt to dissolve in the water, while the sand will not.

Next we can run this solution through a filtration device to separate the sand from the water.

Now all that's left is to let the water evaporate so that the salt will be exposed that dissolved into the water.
