What type of light do most objects produce?

Answer:

The Light We See

Visible light includes all the wavelengths of light that the human eye can detect. It allows us to see objects in the world around us. Without visible light, we would only be able to sense most objects by sound, touch, or smell. Like humans, most other organisms also depend on visible light, either directly or indirectly. Many animals—including predators of jellyfish—use visible light to see. Plants and certain other organisms use visible light to make food in the process of photosynthesis. Without this food, most other organisms would not be able to survive.

Q: Do you think that some animals might be able to see light that isn’t visible to humans?

A: Some animals can see light in the infrared or ultraviolet range of wavelengths. For example, mosquitoes can see infrared light, which is emitted by warm objects. By seeing infrared light, mosquitoes can tell where the warmest, blood-rich areas of the body are located.

Incandescence

Most of the visible light on Earth comes from the sun. The sun and other stars produce light because they are so hot. They glow with light due to their extremely high temperatures. This way of producing light is called incandescence. Incandescent light bulbs also produce light in this way. When electric current passes through a wire filament inside an incandescent bulb, the wire gets so hot that it glows

Why are not all microorganism harmful?
son4ous [18]


In nature there are two categories of microorganisms as relating to health. Microorganisms that are considered harmful to humans are called pathogens and these cause disease. Examples include bacteria such as streptococcus which cause sore throat and salmonella which cause typhoid disease.

 There are some microorganisms which are helpful to man and they live mostly on the skin of man or in his gut and are mostly bacteria. They are collectively called bacterial normal flora.

In man the normal bacterial flora of the skin include staphylococcus found on dry skin, cornybacteria found in moist skin sites and propionibacteria in the sebaceous sites (head, neck, trunk) of the body. Normal bacterial flora of the gut include Escherichia coli.

One of the major function of bacterial flora is actually to protect our bodies  by competing for space with pathogens preventing them from gaining a foothold in our bodies.

Earth’s polar ice caps contain about 2.3 × 1019 kg of ice. This mass contributes essentially nothing to the moment of inertia of
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial moment of inertia of the earth I₁ = 2/5 MR² , M is mss of the earth and R is the radius . If ice melts , it forms an equivalent shell of mass  2.3 x 10¹⁹ Kg

Final moment of inertia I₂ = 2/5 M R² + 2/3  x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ x R²

For change in period of rotation we shall apply conservation of angular momentum law

I₁ ω₁  = I₂ ω₂  ,  ω₁ and   ω₂ are angular velocities initially and finally .

I₁ / I₂     =  ω₂ / ω₁

I₁ / I₂     =  T₁ / T₂  , T₁ , T₂ are time period initially and finally .

T₂ / T₁ = I₂ / I₁

(2/5 M R² + 2/3  x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ x R²) / 2/5 MR²

1 + 5 / 3  x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ / M

= 1 + 5 / 3  x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ / 5.97 x 10²⁴

= 1 + .0000064

T₂ = 24 (1 + .0000064)

= 24 hours + .55 s

change in length of the day = .55 s .

Two +1 C charges are separated by 30000 m, what is the magnitude of<br> the force?
Kipish [7]

Answer:

<em>The magnitude of the force is 10 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Coulomb's Law</u>

The electrostatic force between two charged objects is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Written as a formula:

\displaystyle F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

Where:

k=9\cdot 10^9\ N.m^2/c^2

q1, q2 = the objects' charge

d= The distance between the objects

We have two identical charges of q1=q2=1 c separated by d=30000 m, thus the magnitude of the force is:

\displaystyle F=9\cdot 10^9\frac{1*1}{30000^2}

\displaystyle F=9\cdot 10^9\frac{1*1}{30000^2}

F = 10 N

The magnitude of the force is 10 N
