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}

Crust describes the outermost shell of a terrestrial planet. Earth’s crust is relatively thin, just 40-kilometers (25-miles) dee
Anni [7]

Answer:

"Crust" refers to a

terrestrial planet's outermost surface.

In general, the Earth's crust is divided into

older, thicker continental crust and younger, denser oceanic crust.

...

The thin, 40-kilometer (25-mile) deep crust of our planet — just

1 per cent of Earth's mass — contains all known universe existence.

Explanation:

Continental crust is thicker, 22 miles (35 km) on average and less dense than oceanic crust, which accounts for its mean surface elevation of about 3 miles (4.8 km) above that of the ocean floor (Archimedes’ principle). Continental crust is more complex than oceanic crust…

The longest banana split ever made was 7.32 km long (obviously they used more than one banana). If an archer were to shoot an ar
elixir [45]

Answer:

The horizontal displacement of the arrow is not larger than the banana split.

Explanation:

Using y - y₀ = ut - 1/2gt², we find the time it takes the arrow to drop to the ground from the top of mount Everest.

So, y₀ = elevation of Mount Everest = 29029 ft = 29029 × 1ft = 29029 × 0.3048 m = 8848.04 m, y = final position of arrow = 0 m, u = initial vertical speed of arrow = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and t = time taken for arrow to fall to the ground.

y - y₀ = ut - 1/2gt²

0 - y₀ = 0 × t - 1/2gt²

-y₀ = -1/2gt²

t² = 2y₀/g

t = √(2y₀/g)

Substituting the values of the variables, we have

t = √(2y₀/g)

= √(2 × 8848.04 m/9.8 m/s²)

= √(17696.08 m/9.8 m/s²)

= √(1805.72 s²)

= 42.5 s

The horizontal distance the arrow moves is thus d = vt where v = maximum firing speed of arrow = 100 m/s and t = 42.5 s

So, d = vt

= 100 m/s × 42.5 s

= 4250 m

= 4.25 km

Since d = 4.25 km < 7.32 km, the horizontal displacement of the arrow is not larger than the banana split.

How did scientists determine the age of the ocean floor
Umnica [9.8K]

the layers of rocks, the ancient treasures that are at the bottom of the sea, how old the coral is. But I don't think they determined how old it is, how would the dinosaurs that lived in water swim or any drink water. I don't know if this helps but hopefully it does. Also scientist have made advanced tech that could help with the age determination of the ocean floor.
