The elctromagnetic spectrum ranges from the radiowaves to the gamma rays. The whole spectrum is shown in the attached picture. But the optical telescope can only see the visible region. So, it only covers from the 400 nm to 700 nm frequency. It follows the ROYGBIV colors, where red has the highest frequency and violet has the lowest frequency.

Answer:

Ultraviolet and Infrared

Explanation:

Electromagnetic spectrum shows all type of EM waves basis their frequency and wavelength. It contains EM waves from radio waves having the smallest frequency to gamma rays having maximum frequency. Through an optical telescope Mike can observe only the visible part of the spectrum which is just 7% of the complete spectrum.

The closest to the frequency range of visible light lies Ultraviolet (UV) and Infrared rays. UV rays have higher frequency than visible light and IR rays have lesser frequency.

For which of the following problems would a scientist most likely use carbon-14?
spayn [35]

Answer:

To calculate the age of a piece of bone

Explanation:

Carbon 14 is an isotope of carbon that is unstable and decays into Nitrogen 14 by emitting an electron. The decay rate of radioactive material is  normally expressed in terms of its "half-life" (the time required by half the radioactive nuclei of a sample to undergo radioactive decay). The nice thing about carbon 14 is that its "half-life" is about 5730 years, which gives a nice reference to measure the age of fossils that are some thousand years old.

Carbon 14 dating is used to determine the age of objects that have been living organisms long ago. They measure how much carbon 14 is left in the object after years of decaying without having exchange with the ambient via respiration, ingestion, absorption, etc. and therefore having renewed the normal amount of carbon 14 that is in the ambient.

A rock is not a living organism, so its age cannot be determined by carbon 14 dating.

The U.S. Department of Energy had plans for a 1500-kg automobile to be powered completely by the rotational kinetic energy of a
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

230

Explanation:

\omega = Rotational speed = 3600 rad/s

I = Moment of inertia = 6 kgm²

m = Mass of flywheel = 1500 kg

v = Velocity = 15 m/s

The kinetic energy of flywheel is given by

K=\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}6\times 3600^2\\\Rightarrow K=38880000\ J

Energy used in one acceleration

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}1500\times 15^2\\\Rightarrow K=168750\ J

Number of accelerations would be given by

n=\dfrac{38880000}{168750}\\\Rightarrow n=230.4

So the number of complete accelerations is 230

alisha [4.7K]
Newton's first law says that an object at rest tends to stay at rest while an object in motion stays in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an outside force so the amount of force behind the defensive football player (N) was greater than the quarterback's so he was able to over power him which is also called unbalanced forces

A huge (essentially infinite) horizontal nonconducting sheet 10.0 cm thick has charge uniformly spread over both faces. The uppe
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

6.78 X 10³ N/C

Explanation:

Electric field near a charged infinite plate

=  surface charge density / 2ε₀

Field will be perpendicular to the surface of the plate for both the charge density and direction of field will be same so they will add up.

Field due to charge density of +95.0 nC/m2

E₁ = 95 x 10⁻⁹ / 2 ε₀

Field due to charge density of -25.0 nC/m2

E₂ = 25 x 10⁻⁹ /  2ε₀

Total field

E = E₁ + E₂

= 95 x 10⁻⁹ / 2 ε₀ + 25 x 10⁻⁹ /  2ε₀

= 6.78 X 10³ N/C

DerKrebs [107]

Correct answer choice is :


C) A jar with snails crawling on living plants


Explanation:


By using the power of sunlight, plants can change carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen in a method described photosynthesis. As photosynthesis needs sunlight, this method only occurs during the day. We usually like to think of this as plants `exhaling in carbon dioxide and `breathing out oxygen. Gas transfer between Alveolar Spaces and Capillaries. The role of the respiratory system is to transfer two gases, oxygen and carbon dioxide. The transfer takes place in the millions of alveoli in the lungs and the capillaries that surround them.
