X ray is one of the electromagnetic waves.

As per Clark Maxwell's electromagnetic theory, all the electromagnetic waves move with the velocity of light i.e c= 3×10^8 m/s

In case of electromagnetic waves,the electric field and magnetic field are perpendicular to each other as well as perpendicular to the direction of propagation.The electromagnetic waves exhibit the property of polarisation. Hence they are transverse in nature.

Hence the best statements about X- ray will be-

1- X -rays are electromagnetic waves

2-X-rays are transverse transverse waves

3- X- rays travel at the speed of light.

X-rays are electromagnetic waves. Like any other electromagnetic waves, they are transverse waves, and travel at the speed of light.

daser333 [38]

Answer:

F = 0.535 N

Explanation:

Let's use the concepts of energy, at the highest and lowest point of the trajectory

Higher

   Em₀ = U = mg y

Lower

    Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

    Emo =Em_{f}

    mg y = ½ m v2

    v = √ 2gy

   y = L - L cos θ

  v = √ (2g L (1-cos θ))

Now let's use Newton's second law n at the lowest point where the acceleration is centripetal

     F = ma

     a = v² / r

In turning radius is the cable length r = L

    F = m 2g (1-cos θ)

Let's calculate

    F = 2  1.25  9.8 (1 - cos 12)

    F = 0.535 N

A rectangular loop of wire of width 10 cm and length 20 cm has a current of 2.5 A flowing through it. Two sides of the loop are
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

(a) 0.05 Am^2

(b) 1.85 x 10^-3 Nm

Explanation:

width, w = 10 cm = 0.1 m

length, l = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Current, i = 2.5 A

Magnetic field, B = 0.037 T

(A) Magnetic moment, M = i x A

Where, A be the area of loop

M = 2.5 x 0.1 x 0.2 = 0.05 Am^2

(B) Torque, τ = M x B x Sin 90

τ = 0.05 x 0.037 x 1

τ = 1.85 x 10^-3 Nm

A person standing for a long time gets tired when he does not appear to do any work .why?​
Keith_Richards [23]

Explanation:

A person standing still for a long time feels tired because the force of gravity acts on our body and puts stress on our muscles. so our muscles need energy to do work and keep body balanced and help to stand upright.

A wood pipe having an inner diameter of 3 ft. is bound together using steel hoops having a cross sectional area of 0.2 in.2 The
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

31.67 in

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the pipe, D = 3ft = 36 in

cross-sectional area of the steel = 0.2 in²

Note: Refer to the figure attached

From the free body diagram represented in the figure, we have

ΣFx = 0

or

pressure × projected area = 2 × Force in steel

Now, the projected area = spacing (s) × diameter of the wood pipe

force in steel = stress in steel (σ) × cross-sectional area of the steel

on substituting the values we get

4 ksi × (s × 36 in) = 2 × σ × 0.2 in²

also, allowable hoop stress = 11.4 ksi

thus,

σ = 11.4 ksi = 11.4 × 10³ psi

therefore, we have

4 psi × (s × 36 in) = 2 × 11.4 × 10³ psi × 0.2 in²

thus,

s = 31.67 in

hence the maximum spacing is 31.67 in

4vir4ik [10]

The speed is 0.956 m / s.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The kinetic energy is equal to the product of half of an object's mass, and the square of the velocity.

                   K.E = 1/2 \times m \times v^{2}

where K.E represents the kinetic energy,

           m represents the mass,

            v represents the velocity.

                  K.E = 1/2 \times m \times v^{2}

    1.10 \times 10^42 = 1/2 \times 3.26 \times 10^31 \times v^{2}

                     v^{2} = (1.10 \times 10^42 \times 2) / (3.26 \times 10^31)

                     v = 0.956 m / s.
