Answer:

Inverse relation.

Explanation:

Let E is the energy of the wave and $\lambda$ is its wavelength. The energy of the wave is given by :

$E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}$ ..............(1)

Where

h = Planck's constant

c = speed of light

$\lambda$ = wavelength of a wave

It is clear from equation (1) that the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength of a wave. So, there exists an inverse relationship between the energy and the wavelength of the wave.

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive points of the wave that are in the same phase. The relationship between wavelength, frequency, and velocity of a wave is given by v = f λ where f is the frequency of the wave and λ is the wavelength.

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

303.9481875 N

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 2 seconds

F = Force

r = Radius = 1.5 m

I = Moment of Inertia

$\alpha$ = Angular Acceleration

Torque

$\tau=F\times r$

$\tau=I\times \alpha$

$\\\Rightarrow F\times r=I\times \alpha\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{I\times \alpha}{r}$

Angular velocity

$\omega=rev/s\times 2\pi\\\Rightarrow \omega=0.6\times 2\pi\\\Rightarrow \omega=3.76991\ rad/s$

Angular acceleration

$\alpha=\frac{\omega}{t}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\frac{3.76991}{2}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=1.88495\ rad/s^2$

$I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{1}{2}215\times 1.5^2\\\Rightarrow I=241.875\ kgm^2$

$F=\frac{I\times \alpha}{r}\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{241.875\times 1.88495}{1.5}\\\Rightarrow F=303.9481875\ N$

The magnitude of the force to stop the merry-go-round is 303.9481875 N

A small sphere attached to a light rigid rod rotates about an axis perpendicular to and fixed to the other end of the rod. relat

Crank

<span>d.rotating counterclockwise and slowing down This is a matter of understanding the notation and conventions of angular rotations. Positive rotations are counter clockwise and negative rotations are clockwise. An easy way to remember this is the "right hand rule". Make a closed fist with your right hand and have the thumb sticking outwards. If you orient your thumb such that it's pointing in the direction of the positive value along the axis, your fingers will be curled in the positive rotational direction. So in the described scenario, the sphere is rotating in the positive direction (counter clockwise) and decelerating due to the negative angular acceleration. That immediately indicates that options "a", "b", and "e" are wrong since they mention the sphere going clockwise at the beginning. Of the two remaining options "c" and "d", we can discard option "c" since it has the rotation speeding up, and that leaves us with option "d" where the sphere is rotating counter clockwise and slowing down.</span>
