Wewaii [24]3 years ago
3 0

Most of the radiation, however, is absorbed by the earth's surface. ... Every surface on earth absorbs and reflects energy at varying degrees, based on its color and texture. Dark-colored objects absorb more visible radiation; light-colored objects reflect more visible radiation.

Infrared radiation has wavelengths ranging from about 800 nm to 1 mm. what is the frequency of radiation of wavelength 960 nm? a
Xelga [282]
The correct answer to your question and how to solve it is
 
The relation between wavelength (λ)and the frequency of electromagnetic oscillation (f) is described by the following expression: λ=c/f, where c–is the speed of light in vacuum = 3*10^8 m/s
Derive f from above: f = c/λ.How to Calculate: λ=890nm = 890*10^-9m = 8.9*10^-7m
f =3*10^8m/s Divided by 8.9*10^-7m = 0.34*10^15 s-1=3.4*10^14 s-1
So your Answer is: The frequency of radiation of wavelength 890 nm is 3.4*10^14s-1

A 20.0 F capacitor initially charged to 30.0 uC is discharged through a 3.00 k resistor. How long does it take to reduce the cap
Maslowich

Answer:

t = 0.04159 s

Explanation:

when a capacitor and resister are connected in series. charge on its plates decreases exponentially

q = qo * e^{\frac{-t}{RC}}

where,

CHARGE q  =15.0 C

INITIAL CHARGE q_0 = 30.0 uc

Resistor R = 20.0 F

capacitor C  = 3.00

15 = 30* e^{\frac{- t}{(20* 10^{-6} * 3* 1000)}

t = 0.04159 s
