Answer:

λ = c / f     or    f = c / λ

f = 3.0E8 / 4.0E-7 = .75E15 / sec = 7.5E14 / sec = 7.5 X 10^14 /sec

If you observe an object in the universe that is roughly 8 megaparsecs in size, what is the object most likely to be?
Dmitrij [34]

E. Galaxy Cluster

Explanation:

A galaxy cluster, or cluster of galaxies, is a structure that consists of anywhere from hundreds to thousands of galaxies that are bound together by mutual gravity.

A megaparsec is a million parsecs and there are about 3.3 light years in a mega-parsec. Parsec is rather a natural distance unit for astronomers. The standard abbreviation of a mega-parsec is Mpc.

A parsec is approximately 3.09 x 1016 meters, a megaparsec is about 3.09 x 1022 meters.

Hence, 8 megaparsecs is gigantic size and that can be only of a galaxy cluster consisting of hundreds and thousands of galaxies bounded together.

Keywords: galaxies, parsec, megaparsec, galaxy cluster

Describe the electromagnetic spectrum, electromagnetic waves, and give two examples of different types of electromagnetic waves.
Alex

Answer:

Radio Wave

Micro Wave

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves composed by the perpendicular oscillating electric and magnetic fields.

EM waves have both Electrical and magnetic features.

they travel in the velocity of light (3*10⁸ ms⁻¹)

Electromagnetic spectrum is obtained according to their wave length and the frequency. Due to wave length range it's categorized. Here is the decreasing  order of wave length and increasing order  of different wave types in electromagnetic spectrum

  • Radio Wave
  • Micro Wave
  • IR wave
  • Light Wave
  • UV rays
  • X rays
  • Gamma rays
  • Cosmic rays

Why do you not come to thermal equilibrium on a cold day
Tju [1.3M]

Two physical systems are in thermal equilibrium if no heat flows between them when they are connected by a path permeable to heat. Thermal equilibrium obeys the zeroth law of thermodynamics. A system is said to be in thermal equilibrium with itself if the temperature within the system is spatially and temporally uniform.

Systems in thermodynamic equilibrium are always in thermal equilibrium, but the converse is not always true. If the connection between the systems allows transfer of energy as heat but does not allow transfer of matter or transfer of energy as work, the two systems may reach thermal equilibrium without reaching thermodynamic equilibrium.

Which component of weight is cause for S.H.M of bob simple pendulum
jeka57 [31]

Explanation:

The Simple Pendulum. A simple pendulum is defined to have a point mass, also known as the pendulum bob, which is suspended from a string of length L with negligible mass ((Figure)). Here, the only forces acting on the bob are the force of gravity (i.e., the weight of the bob) and tension from the string.

hope it helps you
