What can we say about Gamma waves on the electromagnetic spectrum?

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions. Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells.

Assume that the average mass of each of the approximately 1 billion people in China is 55 kg.Assume that they all gather in one

Harman [31]

Answer: $5.9(10)^{-8} m$

Explanation:

The equation to calculate the center of mass $C_{M}$ of a particle system is:

$C_{M}=\frac{m_{1}r_{1}+m_{1}r_{1}+...+m_{n}r_{n}}{m_{1}+m_{2}+...+m_{n}}$

In this case we can arrange for one dimension, assuming the geometric center of the Earth and the ladder are on a line, and assuming original center of mass located at the Earth's geometric center:

$C_{M}=\frac{m_{E}(0 m) + m_{p} r_{E-p}}{m_{E}+m_{p}}$

Where:

$m_{E}=5.9(10)^{24} kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$m_{p}=55(10)^{9} kg$ is the mass of 1 billion people

$r_{E}=6371000 m$ is the radius of the Earth

$r_{E-p}=6371000 m- 2m=6370998 m$ is the distance between the center of the Earth and the position of the people (2 m above the Earth's surface)

$C_{M}=\frac{m_{p}55(10)^{9} kg (6370998 m)}{5.9(10)^{24} kg+55(10)^{9} kg}$

$C_{M}=5.9(10)^{-8} m$ This is the displacement of Earth's center of mass from the original center.

Neko [114]

The answer is letter C. <span>A train travels from the bottom of a hill to the top of a hill, its moves slower by the time it reaches the top is an example of negative acceleration.

In physics, acceleration can be described as an objects change of velocity. When an object gains velocity, it is positive acceleration, and negative acceleration for the opposite.

IrinaK [193]

The reasoning which is in use when large, angular rocks are interpreted to have originated from the outcrop at the top of the hill is; Fossil succession

<h3>Fossil succession of rocks</h3>

The principle of fossil succession in characterized by the fact that fossil entities succeed one another upward through rock layers in a definite and determinable order.

On this note, any time period can be dated by its fossil content.

4. A box of books weighing 325 N moves at a constant velocity across the floor when the box is pushed with a force of 425 N exer

Rudik [331]

Answer:

0.61°

Explanation:

Since the box move at constant velocity, it means there is no acceleration then we can say it has a balanced force system.

Pulling force= resistance force

From the formula for pulling force,

F(x)= Fcos(θ)

= 425×cos(35.2)

=347N

The force exerted downward at an angle of 35.2° below the horizontal= Fsin(θ)= 425sin(35.2)

=425×0.567=245N

Resistance force= (325N+ 245N) (α)= 570N(α)

We can now equates the pulling force to resistance force

570 (α)= 347N

(α)= 347/570

= 0.61

For what absolute value of the phase angle does a source deliver 71 % of the maximum possible power to an RLC circuit

kherson [118]

Answer: the absolute value of the phase angle is 28°

Explanation:

taking a look at expression for the instantaneous electric power in an AC circuit;

P = VI -------let this be equation 1

p is power, v is voltage and I is current;

for maximum power

P_max = V_rms × I_rms --------let this be equ 2

where P_max is the maximum power, V_rms is the rms value of voltage and I_rms is the rms value of current.

Also for average electric power in an AC circuit

P_avg = V_rms × I_rms × cos²∅ -------let this be equ 3

where P_avg is the average power and cos∅ is the power factor

now from equation 2; P_max = V_rms × I_rms

so p_max replaces V_rms × I_rms in equation 3

we now have

P_avg = P_max × cos²∅

so we substitute

expression for the given value of the average power is

P_avg = P_max × 75%

p_avg = P_max.78/100

for the expression of the average electricity in an AC circuit

P_max.78/100 = P_max × cos²∅

78/100 = cos²∅

to get the absolute value of phase angle

∅ = cos⁻¹ ( √(78/100))

∅ = cos⁻¹ ( 0.8832)

∅ = 27.969 ≈ 28°

Therefore the absolute value of the phase angle is 28°
