Why is visible light safe to humans ?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

Visible light is the range of electromagnetic waves that humans can see. Anything that glows or gives off light makes waves of what we call visible light. The sun, light bulbs, candles and fire are all things that people automatically think of when it comes to light, but visible light comes from many sources and in many colors. Some other sources of visible light include: television and computer screens, glow sticks, and fireworks

Answer 2

Answer:

Visible light is visible because most of the gases in planetary atmospheres (oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, methane, ammonia…) are transparent to those wavelengths. We evolved to see those wavelengths because the atmosphere in visible light is transparent.

A dipole is centered at the origin, with its axis along the axis, so that at locations on the axis, the electric field due to the dipole is given by E = (0, 1/4 pi epsilon_0 2qs/gamma^3, 0) v/m The charges making up the dipole are q_1 = +4 nC and q_2 = nC, and the dipole separation is s = 8 mm. What is the potential difference along a path starting at location p_1 = (0, 0.04, 0) m and ending at location P_2 = (0, 0.05, 0) m?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

[tex]q_1 = + 4nC \\ \\ q_2 = -4nC \\ \\ q = 4nC[/tex]

[tex]P_1 = (0,0.04,0) m\\\\ P_2 = (0,0.05,0) m[/tex]

As [tex]q_1[/tex] [tex]\text{is nearer to }[/tex][tex]P_1 \& P_2[/tex] then [tex]q_2,q_1[/tex] [tex]\text{is positive, Thus}[/tex], [tex]E \limits^{\to}[/tex][tex]\text{ will be along the positive X-axis.}[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]E ^{\to} = \dfrac{-dV}{dr}\implies E_y = \dfrac{-dV}{dy} \\ \\ = \int^{P_2}_{P_1}dV = -\int \limits ^{(0.05)}_{(0.04)}E_y \ dy \\ \\ \implies (V_{P_2}}-V_{(P_1)}) = \dfrac{-2q_5}{4 \pi \varepsilon _o} \int \limits ^{(0.05)}_{(0.04)} \dfrac{dy}{y^3} \\ \\ \implies (V_{P_2}}-V_{(P_1)}) = \dfrac{-2q_5}{4 \pi \varepsilon _o} \Big[ \dfrac{-1}{2y^2} \Big]^{0.05}_{0.04} \\ \\ \implies (V_{P_2}}-V_{(P_1)}) = \dfrac{q_5}{4 \pi \varepsilon _o} \Big[\dfrac{1}{y^2}\Big] ^{0.05}_{0.04}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \\ \implies (V_{P_2}}-V_{P_1}) = \dfrac{(4\times 10^{-9})(8\times 10^{-3})}{4 \pi (8.854 \times 10^{-12})} \Big [\dfrac{1}{(0.05)^2}-\dfrac{1}{(0.04)^2} \Big ]V \\ \\ (V_{P_2}}-V_{P_1}) = \mathbf{-64.71 \ volts}[/tex]

I'll do coal. and maybe a little more.

Explanation:

Coal What is it?

Coal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock, formed as rock strata called coal seams. Coal is mostly carbon with variable amounts of other elements; chiefly hydrogen, sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen.

Coal How we obtain it:

Coal can be extracted from the earth either by surface mining or underground mining. Once coal has been extracted, it can be used directly (for heating and industrial processes) or to fuel power plants for electricity. If coal is less than 61 meters (200 feet) underground, it can be extracted through surface mining.

Coal Pros:

Coal is plentiful in many places and it is easy to access through mining, so people rely on it to produce energy. Coal is easy to store. Once it is mined it can be safely stored with no hazard of fire or explosion like there is with gas or oil. It is relatively easy and inexpensive to convert coal into energy.

Coal Cons:

Coal is nonrenewable.  Coal contains the most CO2 per BTU, the largest contributor to global warming.  Severe environmental, social, and health, and safety impacts of coal mining.  The devastation of the environment around coal mines is heavy.  High cost of transporting coal to centralized power plants. Coal is really dirty and not good.

Solar What is it?

Solar energy is radiant light and heat from the Sun that is harnessed using a range of ever-evolving technologies such as solar heating, photovoltaics, solar thermal energy, solar architecture, molten salt power plants and artificial photosynthesis.

Solar How we obtain it:

Solar technologies convert sunlight into electrical energy either through photovoltaic (PV) panels or through mirrors that concentrate solar radiation. This energy can be used to generate electricity or be stored in batteries or thermal storage.

Solar Pros:

It's clean energy. Solar power is pollution-free and causes no greenhouse gases to be emitted after installation.  It has reduced dependence on foreign oil and fossil fuels.  It is renewable clean power that is available every day of the year, even cloudy days produce some power.  It gives a return on investment unlike paying for utility bills.

Solar Cons:

Solar doesn't work at night. Solar panels are not attractive. You can't install a home solar system yourself. My roof isn't right for solar. Solar hurts the environment. Not all solar panels are high quality.

Why does a lunar eclipse last for a few hours whereas a solar eclipse only lasts for a few minutes?

Select one:

a.
The moon takes more time to travel through the earth’s umbra.


b.
Because the moon is moving much more slowly than the sun.


c.
Solar and lunar eclipses actually last about the same time.


d.
Because the sun is stationary and the moon is moving.

Answers

Answer:

The type and length of a lunar eclipse depend on the Moon's proximity to either node of its orbit. ... A total lunar eclipse can last up to nearly 2 hours, while a total solar eclipse lasts only up to a few minutes at any given place, due to the smaller size of the Moon's shadow.

D. You would weigh the same on both planets because their masses

and the distance to their centers of gravity are the same.

Explanation:

The above statement is true due to the fact that, the weight and masses of the individual are same in direct comparison with the distance to their center of gravity. If the weight and masses are not same, then there would have been a significant difference between the two planet.

The 25-mph zone is 150 yards long. How much time did the student save (in seconds) by speeding past the school

Answers

Answer:

Time = 12.27seconds

Explanation:

Given

Speed = 25miles/hour

Distance = 150 yards = 150(0.000568182)miles

Distance (in miles) = 0.0852273miles

Get the time

Speed = Distance/Time

Time = Distance/Speed

Time = 0.0852273/25

Time = 0.0034hours

Time = 0.0034 * 3600secs

Time = 12.27seconds

What is the kinetic energy of a 0.500 kg toy car moving at a state of 1.50 m/s

Answers

Answer:0.563

Explanation:

The kinetic energy produced in a toy car is equal to 0.563 J.

What is the kinetic energy and potential energy?

The energy exhibited by a moving body because of its motion is said to be its kinetic energy. Work should be done which can change the kinetic energy of a moving object.

The kinetic energy of a moving object can be determined from the formula mentioned below:

K.E. = ½mv²     where ‘m’ and ‘v’ is the mass, velocity of the object.

Potential Energy (P.E.)is energy that is stored in an object due to its position and can be expressed as P.E = mgh where h, m, and g are the height, mass, and gravitational acceleration respectively.

Given, the mass of the toy car =, m = 0.500 Kg

The velocity of the toy car, v = 80 m/s

The kinetic energy = (1/2)× 0.500 ×(1.50)²

K.E. = 0.563 J

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in a substance.  Mass can be measured using a triple beam balance. Hence option (A) is correct.

What is mass?

In physics, mass is a quantitative measurement of inertia, a basic characteristic of all matter. It essentially refers to a body of matter's resistance to changing its speed or location in response to the application of a force. The change caused by an applied force is smaller the more mass a body has. The kilograms serves as the unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI).

The conservation of mass principle states that no matter how an object's component pieces are rearranged, the object's overall mass remains constant. If a body splits into parts, the mass also splits into pieces, therefore the original mass is equal to the sum of the masses of the individual fragments. Alternatively, if two or more particles are combined, the mass of the resulting composite equals the total of the masses of the individual particles. This rule is not always accurate, though.
