Answer:
X-rays travel through space faster than radio waves.
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.
All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, the speed of light, whose value is:
Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types, according to their wavelength/frequency. From shortest to longest wavelength (and so, from highest to lowest frequency), we have:
Gamma rays
X rays
Ultraviolet
Visible light
Infrared radiation
Microwaves
Radio waves
Now we can analyze the 4 statements:
X-rays and radio waves are both forms of light, or electromagnetic radiation --> TRUE. They are both types of electromagnetic waves.
X-rays have higher frequency than radio waves. --> TRUE, as we can see from the table above.
X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio waves. --> TRUE, as we can see from the table above.
X-rays travel through space faster than radio waves. --> FALSE: all electromagnetic waves travel in space at the same speed, the speed of light.
Answer:
Explanation:
A 6.0-cm-diameter parallel-plate capacitor has a 0.46 mm gap.
What is the displacement current in the capacitor if the potential difference across the capacitor is increasing at 500,000V/s?
Let given is,
The diameter of a parallel plate capacitor is 6 cm or 0.06 m
Separation between plates, d = 0.046 mm
The potential difference across the capacitor is increasing at 500,000 V/s
We need to find the displacement current in the capacitor. Capacitance for parallel plate capacitor is given by :
, r is radius
Let I is the displacement current. It is given by :
Here, is rate of increasing potential difference
So
So, the value of displacement current is .
It traveled 200 m in 50 seconds. 200/50 can be simplified to 4 m/s!
The velocity is -4 m/s (negative because it travelled from 100 to -100 or backwards)
Answer:

Phosphate
Nitrogen
Magnesium
Calcium
Potassium
Chlorine
(I know that these are more examples than needed, but you can use any)
7.5 x 10⁻¹¹m. An electromagnetic wave of frecuency 4.0 x 10¹⁸Hz has a wavelength of 7.5 x 10⁻¹¹m.
Wavelength is the distance traveled by a periodic disturbance that propagates through a medium in a certain time interval. The wavelength, also known as the space period, is the inverse of the frequency. The wavelength is usually represented by the Greek letter λ.
λ = v/f. Where v is the speed of propagation of the wave, and "f" is the frequency.
An electromagnetic wave has a frecuency of 4.0 x 10 ¹⁸Hz and the speed of light is 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s. So:
λ = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s)/(4.0 x 10¹⁸ Hz)
λ = 7.5 x 10⁻¹¹m
