Gamma rays are known to have the greatest frequency and the shortest wavelength. What we also know is that frequency and energy are directly proportional (they are the same), and that the wavelength is the opposite of them - if frequency/energy are high, the wavelength will be short, and vice versa.
Since X-rays are the opposite of gamma rays, then the correct answer is the third option - <span>less energy and long wavelengths.</span>

Which of the following has the largest inertia?
Shkiper50 [21]

Option D,  a semi truck parked in a parking lot

Reason: Inertia is the state of a body which needs a force to come into the act of motion.

The more massive the object is the more is its inertia.

A major limitation of using photovoltaic cells to generate electricity is that they
Marianna [84]

Answer:

Explained below:

Explanation:

The major limitation in the use of Photovoltaic cells to generate electricity is its unpredictability about the climate that whether it will be a shining day or a cloudy day and it does not work at night also because of no presence of sunlight as it totally depends on it. It can be used as an alternative but cannot be used as chief source of electricity.

A series RC circuit contains a 1,000 ohm resistor and a 0.025 microfarad capacitor. What is the time constant of this circuit?
stiks02 [169]

The RC time constant, also called tau, the time constant (in seconds) of an RC circuit, is equal to the product of the circuit resistance (in ohms) and the circuit capacitance (in farads), i.e.

\tau = RC

Here,

R = Resistance

C = Capacitance

Replacing we have that

\tau = (1000)(0.025*10^{6})

\tau = 25*10^{-6}

\tau = 25\mu s

Therefore the time constant of this circuit is \tau = 25\mu s

What is latent heat? Group of answer choices Energy released when water evaporates. Energy hidden in water vapor in the air. Ene
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Energy absorbed or hidden when water evaporates

Explanation:

The heat that is required to make a phase change is known as latent heat.

A phase change occurs when matter changes state. For example from solid to liquid, from liquid to gas, among others.

When changing from liquid to gas (for example when water evaporates), the heat necessary for this to happen is called latent heat of vaporization. The word latent means hidden, because a change in temperature is not perceived during the phase change, even when heat is being added, thus it is said that the heat is hidden or latent.

So the answer is:

  • Energy absorbed or hidden when water evaporates.

*Another type of latent heat is the latent heat of fusion, which is when a solid becomes liquid.
