Two of the types of ultraviolet light, uva and uvb, are both components of sunlight. their wavelengths range from 320 to 400 nm

for uva and from 290 to 320 nm for uvb. compare the energy of microwaves, uva, and uvb. rank from greatest to least energy per photon. to rank items as equivalent, overlap them.

In light energy, the higher the frequency, the greater the energy a light contain.

We know for a certain that frequency is just the reciprocal of wavelength:

frequency = 1 / wavelength

Calculating for frequencies:

f UVA = 1/320 to 1/400

f UVA = 0.0031 to 0.0025

 

f UVB = 1/290 to 1/320

f UVB = 0.0034 to 0.0031

Since UVB has higher frequency range, then it has higher energy than UVA.

Answer:

uvb > uva > microwaves

Explanation:

The energy of an electromagnetic wave is

E =\frac{hc}{\lambda}

Where

h is the Planck's constant

c is the speed of light and

\lambda is the frequency

So we can understand that the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength

The wavelengths are

1. microwaves - 1 mm - 1m

2. uva - 320 - 400 nm

3. uvb - 290 - 320 nm

So with the smallest wavelength the uvb has the greatest energy

and the microwave has least amount of energy with the largest wavelength range

so the answer is uvb > uva > microwaves

White raven [17]

Answer:

Normal Conversation: i=106i0

i(dB)=60

Power saw a 3 feet: i=1011i0

i(dB)=110

Jet engine at 100 feet: i=1018i0

i(dB)=180

<h2>Apartment Explosion Reported </h2>

The apartment’s explosion, reportedly caused by a gas leak, produced a violent release of gas and heat. The heat increased the temperature of the air in the room, which means an increase in the air's molecular kinetic energy.

When heat is provided then temperature increases and the molecules of substances move rapidly by increase of kinetic energy (K.E) temperature increases. It is understood that heat increases temperature.

Consider the two moving boxcars in Example 5. Car 1 has a mass of m1 = 65000 kg and a velocity of v01 = +0.80 m/s. Car 2 has a m
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

1.034m/s

Explanation:

We define the two moments to develop the problem. The first before the collision will be determined by the center of velocity mass, while the second by the momentum preservation. Our values are given by,

m_1 = 65000kg\\v_1 = 0.8m/s\\m_2 = 92000kg\\v_2 = 1.2m/s

<em>Part A)</em> We apply the center of mass for velocity in this case, the equation is given by,

V_{cm} = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

Substituting,

V_{cm} = \frac{(65000*0.8)+(92000*1.2)}{92000+65000}

V_{cm} = 1.034m/s

Part B)

For the Part B we need to apply conserving momentum equation, this formula is given by,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f

Where here v_f is the velocity after the collision.

v_f = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

v_f = \frac{(65000*0.8)+(92000*1.2)}{92000+65000}

v_f = 1.034m/s
