A human hair is approximately 50 pm in diameter. Express this diameter in meters.

Place the items in order from the largest wavelength to the shortest wavelength.

Butoxors [25]

From largest to shortest wavelength:

Radio waves, Microwaves, Infrared radiation, Red visible, Orange visible, Yellow visible, Green visible, Blue visible, Violet visible, Ultraviolet, X-rays, Gamma rays

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.

Electromagnetic waves are the only type of waves able to travel in a vacuum, and in a vacuum they always at the same speed, the speed of light, equal to:

$c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$

Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types, according to their wavelength/frequency. From slongest to shortest wavelength, they are ranked as follows:

Radio waves

Microwaves

Infrared radiation

Visible light

Ultraviolet

X-rays

Gamma rays

Visible light is the only part of the spectrum that the human eye is able to see. Depending on the wavelength of the visible light, we perceive the radiation as a different color. In order from longest to shortest wavelength, colors are:

Red

Orange

Yellow

Green

Blue

Indigo

Violet

Therefore, the correct order from largest to shortest wavelength in the given list is:

Radio waves

Microwaves

Infrared radiation

Red visible

Orange visible

Yellow visible

Green visible

Blue visible

Violet visible

Ultraviolet

X-rays

Gamma rays

A stone is thrown at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal from the top edge of a cliff with an initial speed of 12 m/s. A

natta225 [31]

v = initial velocity of launch of the stone = 12 m/s

θ = angle of the velocity from the horizontal = 30

Consider the motion of the stone along the vertical direction taking upward direction as positive and down direction as negative.

v₀ = initial velocity along vertical direction = v Sinθ = 12 Sin30 = 6 m/s

a = acceleration of the stone = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel = 4.8 s

Y = vertical displacement of stone = vertical height of the cliff = ?

using the kinematics equation

Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

inserting the values

Y = 6 (4.8) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (4.8)²

Y = - 84.1 m

hence the height of the cliff comes out to be 84.1 m

Which statement correctly describes mass-energy equivalence? All energy in the universe will be converted to an equivalent amoun

olchik [2.2K]

The statement 'all energy in the universe is a result of mass being converted into energy' correctly describes mass-energy equivalence.

<h3>What is mass-energy equivalence?</h3>

The expression mass-energy equivalence refers to the proportion of matter that can be converted into energy in the universe.

This mass-energy equivalence is an outcome of process of converting mass into energy.

In conclusion, the statement 'all energy in the universe is a result of mass being converted into energy' correctly describes mass-energy equivalence.

How does the orbital speed of an asteroid in a circular solar orbit with a radius of 4.0 AU compare to a circular solar orbit wi

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The circular solar orbital speed at 4.0AU is 1/4( one fourth) that at 1.0AU

Explanation:

am = mvr= angular momentum

am4= 4mvt

am1= mvp1

Vt=1/4vp

Vp=4vt

am1= 4mvt

am1=am4

The circular solar orbital speed at 4.0AU is 1/4 (one fourth) that at 1.0AU

Calculate the force which will produce an extension of 0.30mm in a steel wire with a length of 4.0m and a cross section area of

Anna [14]

Given data:

* The extension of the steel wire is 0.3 mm.

* The length of the wire is 4 m.

* The area of cross section of wire is,

$A=2\times10^{-6}m^2$

* The young modulus of the steel is,

$Y=2.1\times10^{11}\text{ Pa}$

Solution:

The young modulus of the steel in terms of the force and extension is,

$Y=\frac{F\times l}{A\times dl}$

where F is the force acting on the steel wire,, l is the original length of the wire, dl is the extension of the wire, and A is the area,

Substituting the known values,

$\begin{gathered} 2.1\times10^{11}=\frac{F\times4}{2\times10^{-6}\times0.3\times10^{-3}} \\ F=0.315\times10^2\text{ N} \\ F=31.5\text{ N} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the force which produce the extension of 0.3 mm of the steel wire is 31.5 N.
