The relationship between the frequency (f) of an electromagnetic wave, the speed of the wave (which is the speed of light, c) and its wavelength \lambda is given by
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}

Since the wavelength of the radiation in the problem is \lambda= 0.80 nm = 0.80 \cdot 10^{-9} m, by substituting numbers in the formula we  can get the frequency:
f= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{0.80 \cdot 10^{-9} m} =3.75 \cdot 10^{17} s^{-1}

Answer:

Answer:

= 338.2 m/s

Explanation:

vs= 331 + T (0.6m/s)

= 331 + 12 °C (0.6m/s)

= 331 + 7.2m/s

= 338.2 m/s

A ship sets out to sail to a point 120 km due north. an unexpected storm blows the ship to a point 100 km due east of its starti
Pavel [41]
If you draw the problem, it would look like that shown in the attached picture. The total length the ship will now travel can be solved using the Pythagorean theorem. The solution is as follows:

d = √(120)²+(100)²
d = 156.2 km

So, the ship will have to travel 156.2 km to the northwest direction.

You throw a ball from the balcony onto the court in the basketball arena. You release the ball at a height of 7.00 m above the c
Mariana [72]

Answer:

Your friend has to wait 0.26 s after you throw the ball to start running.

Explanation:

The equation that gives the position vector of the ball is as follows:

r = (x0 + v0 · t · cos α, y0 + v0 · t ·sin α + 1/2 · g · t²)

Where:

x0 = initial horizontal positon

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

α = throwing angle

y0 = initial vertical position

g = acceleration due to gravity

The equation of displacement of your friend is as follows:

x = x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²

Where:

x = position of your friend at time t

x0 = initial position

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

a = acceleration

Please, see the attached figure for a description of the situation. Notice that the frame of reference is located at the throwing point.

Let´s find the time of flight of the ball. We know that at the final time, the y-component of the vector r has to be -6.00 m (1 m above the ground). Then:

y = y0 + v0 · t ·sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

-6.00 m = 0 m + 9.00 m/s · t · sin 33.0° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 = -4.9 m/s² · t² + 9.00 m/s · sin 33.0° · t + 6.00 m

Solving the quadratic equation:

t = 1.71 s

Now that we have the time of flight, we can calculate the x-component of the vector r (the horizontal distance traveled by the ball):

x= x0 + v0 · t · cos α

x = 0m + 9.00 m/s · 1.71 s · cos 33°

x = 12.9 m

Then, your friend will have to run (12.9 m - 11.0 m) 1.9 m to catch the ball 1 m above the ground.

Let´s see, how much time it takes your friend to run that distance:

x = x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²      (x0 = 0, v0 = 0)

x = 1/2 · a · t²

1.9 m = 1/2 · 1.80 m/s² · t²

Solving for t

t = 1.45 s

Then, since the time of flight of the ball is 1.71 s, your friend has to wait

1.71 s - 1.45 s = 0.26 s after you throw the ball to start running.
