Consider the diagram of the electromagnetic spectrum shown below. Notice the locations of X-rays and radio waves. X-rays are often used in medical settings to create images of the body's internal structures such as bones. This is made possible by the fact that X-rays are able to pass through the body's softer tissues without being absorbed. Radio waves are also able to pass through the body's softer tissues without being absorbed. Why are radio waves not used to generate medical images?
A. The frequency of most radio waves is too low to allow them to pass through bones or other solid materials.
B. Radio waves tend to bend too much when they encounter solid materials to be used for generating accurate images.
C. Radio waves carry so little energy that they tend to pass through most atoms without an interaction taking place.
D. The electrons in most atoms are not in high enough energy states to absorb the photons of radio waves

How many milliliters of water at 23 °c with a density of 1.00 g/ml must be mixed with 180 ml (about 6 oz) of coffee at 95 °c so that the resulting combination will have a temperature of 60 °c? assume that coffee and water have the same density and the same specific heat. how much will the temperature of a cup (180 g) of coffee at 95 °c be reduced when a 45 g silver spoon (specific heat 0.24 j/g °c) at 25 °c is placed in the coffee and the two are allowed to reach the same temperature? assume that the coffee has the same density and specific heat as water. a 45-g aluminum spoon (specific heat 0.88 j/g °c) at 24 °c is placed in 180 ml (180 g) of coffee at 85 °c and the temperature of the two become equal. (a) what is the final temperature when the two become equal? assume that coffee has the same specific heat as water. (b) the first time a student solved this problem she got an answer of 88 °c. explain why this is clearly an incorrect answer.
