The average human has a density of 945 kg/m3 after inhalation, and 1020 kg/m3 after exhalation. Fresh water has a density of 100
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

a. The human body has nearly the same density as salt water after exhaling.

b. The human body will always float in the Dead Sea.

Explanation:

According to the concept of floating on the basis of  density, any body that is put in a fluid of density greater than its own density will always float due to the force of buoyancy from the liquid.

  • The portion of the object submerged  while the object is floating depends upon the density of the object as compared to the density of the fluid. This is governed by the equation:

\rho_f.V_s=\rho_o.V_o

where:

\rho_f= density of the fluid

\rho_o= density of the object

V_s= volume of the object submerged in the fluid

V_o= total volume of the object

Humans experience the longest visible electromagnetic waves as
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Red light

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum classifies all the electromagnetic waves according to their wavelength/frequency. In order from shortest to longest wavelength, we have

Gamma rays

X rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared

Microwaves

Radio waves

All of these waves are invisible to human eye, except for the "visible light" part of the spectrum. Waves in the visible light part are perceived by human as different colors, depending on their wavelength. More specifically, they appear as follows:

Violet (380-450 nm)

Blue (450-495 nm)

Green (495-570 nm)

Yellow (570-590 nm)

Orange (590-620 nm)

Red (620-750 nm)

So we see that the longest electromagnetic wave in the visible light part of the spectrum corresponds to red light.

Maurinko [17]
200 miles/420 secs = 10/21
