Answer:
1) f= 8.6 GHz
2) t= 0.2 ms
Explanation:
1)
- Since microwaves are electromagnetic waves, they move at the same speed as the light in vacuum, i.e. 3*10⁸ m/s.
- There exists a fixed relationship between the frequency (f) , the wavelength (λ) and the propagation speed in any wave, as follows:
- Replacing by the givens, and solving for f, we get:
⇒ f = 8.6 Ghz (with two significative figures)
2)
- Assuming that the microwaves travel at a constant speed in a straight line (behaving like rays) , we can apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:
where v= c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s
d= distance between mountaintops = 52 km = 52*10³ m
- Solving for t, we get:
⇒ t = 0.2 ms (with two significative figures)
Answer:
6.57 m/s
Explanation:
First use Hook's Law to determine the F the compressed spring acts on the mass. Hook's Law F=kx; F=force, k=stiffnes of spring (or spring constant), x=displacement
F=kx; F=180(.3) = 54 N
Next from Newton's second law find the acceleration of the mass.
Newton's .2nd law F=ma; a=F/m ; a=54/.75 = 72m/s²
Now use the kinematic equation for velocity (or speed)
v₂²= v₀² + 2a(x₂-x₀); v₂=final velocity; v₀=initial velocity; a=acceleration; x₂=final displacement; x₀=initial displacment.
v₀=0, since the mass is at rest before we release it
a=72 m/s² (from above)
x₀=0 as the start position already compressed
x₂=0.3m (this puts the spring back to it's natural length)
v₂²= 0 + 2(72)(0.3) = 43.2 m²/s²
v₂= = 6.57 m/s
