The wavelength of the radio waves is 3.04 cm.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

λf = c

λ = c/f

where,

λ = wavelength

c = speed of light

f = frequency

Given,

f = 98.6 MHz = 98.6 × 10⁶

c = 3 × 10⁸

To find,

λ =?

Put the values in the formula,

λ = c/f

λ = 3 × 10⁸/98.6 × 10⁶

= 0.0304 × 10² m

= 3.04 cm

Therefore, the wavelength of the radio waves is 3.04 cm.

The membrane that surrounds a certain type of living cell has a surface area of 5.3 x 10-9 m2 and a thickness of 1.1 x 10-8 m. A

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

$2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

Explanation:

We are given that

Surface area of membrane= $5.3\times 10^{-9} m^2$

Thickness of membrane= $1.1\times 10^{-8} m$

Assume that membrane behave like a parallel plate capacitor.

Dielectric constant=5.9

Potential difference between surfaces=85.9 mV

We have to find the charge resides on the outer surface of membrane.

Capacitance between parallel plate capacitor is given by

$C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}$

Substitute the values then we get

Capacitance between parallel plate capacitor= $\frac{5.9\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 5.3\times 10^{-9}}{1.1\times 10^{-8}}$

$C=0.25\times 10^{-12}F$

V= $85.9 mV=85.9\times 10^{-3}$

$Q=CV$

$Q=0.25\times 10^{-12}\times 85.9\times 10^{3}=2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

Hence, the charge resides on the outer surface= $2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

xxTIMURxx [149]

The area of the Earth (Ae) that is irradiated by is given by:

Ae = 4πRe^2, where Re = Distance from Sun to Earth
Substituting;
Ae = 4π*(1.5*10^8*1000)^2 = 2.827*10^23 m^2

On the Earth, insolation (We) = Psun/Ae

Therefore,
Psun (Rate at which sun emits energy) = We*Ae = 1.4*2.827*10^23 = 3.958*10^23 kW = 3.958*10^26 W

What is surface tension? How does surface tension result from intermolecular forces? How is it related to the strength of interm

Bond [772]

Answer:

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible.

Surface tension is caused by effects of intermolecular forces at liquid interface.

Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases.

Explanation:

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible. It can also be seen as the energy required to increase the surface of a liquid by a unit amount.

Surface tension is caused by the mediating effects of intermolecular forces at the liquid interfaces. Example in water, surface tension is caused by the mediating effect of the force between hydrogen and oxygen molecules. Liquids tends to reduce their surface area because of inward attarction of the liquid molecules.

Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases. Also, surface tension decreases as intermolecular forces decreases.
