Answer:V=13500m/s

As

V=fλ

Where v is velocity, f is frequency and λ is the wavelength

f=27hz or 27/s

λ=0.50km=0.50*1000m=500m

Putting given values in the formula

V=(27/s)*(500m)

V=13500m/sss

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

density of galaxies would be \frac{1}{0.27^3} times higher which is equal to 50.81.

It means  in a cube that today contains one galaxy the size of the Milky Way, we would instead find 50.81 galaxies this size.

You can round this off to 52

A heat engine operates between two reservoirs at 300K. During each cycle, it absorbs 200 calories from the high temperature rese
yanalaym [24]

(a) Zero

The maximum efficiency (Carnot efficiency) of a heat engine is given by

\eta=1-\frac{T_C}{T_H}

where

T_C is the low-temperature reservoir

T_H is the high-temperature reservoir

For the heat engine in the problem, we have:

T_C = 300K

T_H = 300K

Therefore, the maximum efficiency is

\eta=1-\frac{300}{300}=0

(b) Zero

The efficiency of a heat engine can also be rewritten as

\eta = \frac{W}{Q_H}

where

W is the work performed by the engine

Q_H is the heat absorbed from the high-temperature reservoir

In this problem, we know

\eta=0

Therefore, since the term Q_H cannot be equal to infinity, the numerator of the fraction must be zero as well, which means

W = 0

So the engine cannot perform any work.

A 3.0 kg box is sliding along a frictionless horizontal surface with a speed of 1.8 m/s when it encounters a spring. (a) Determi
krok68 [10]

Answer:

a) k = 2231.40 N/m

b) v = 0.491 m/s

Explanation:

Let k be the spring force constant , x be the compression displacement of the spring and v be the speed of the box.

when the box encounters the spring, all the energy of the box is kinetic energy:

the energy relationship between the box and the spring is given by:

1/2(m)×(v^2) = 1/2(k)×(x^2)

    (m)×(v^2) = (k)×(x^2)

a) (m)×(v^2) = (k)×(x^2)

                 k = [(m)×(v^2)]/(x^2)

                 k = [(3)×((1.8)^2)]/((6.6×10^-2)^2)

                 k = 2231.40 N/m

Therefore, the force spring constant is 2231.40 N/m

b) (m)×(v^2) = (k)×(x^2)

             v^2 = [(k)(x^2)]/m

                 v =  \sqrt{ [(k)(x^2)]/m}

                 v = \sqrt{ [(2231.40)((1.8×10^-2)^2)]/(3)}

                    = 0.491 m/s
