Answer:

(a) 1.5×10⁻¹¹ m.

(b) 6.7×10⁻² m

Explanation:

Note: All Electromagnetic wave travels in with the same speed, which 3×10⁸ m/s

(a) Give a frequency of 2.00×10¹⁹ Hz.

Using the equation of a wave,

V = λf................ Equation 1

Where V = Speed of electromagnetic wave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency.

make λ the subject of the equation

λ = V/f................. Equation 2

Given: f = 2.00×10¹⁹ Hz.

Constant: v = 3×10⁸ m/s.

Substitute into equation 2

λ = 3×10⁸/2.00×10¹⁹

λ = 1.5×10⁻¹¹ m.

(b) Similarly using

λ = v/f

Given: f = 4.5×10⁹ Hz, and v = 3×10⁸ m/s.

Substitute these values into equation 2 above.

λ = 3×10⁸/4.5×10⁹

λ = 6.7×10⁻² m

What is the disadvantage of the parallax method, especially for studying distant parts of the Galaxy?
Katena32 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

Parallax method is used for finding the distance of objects in space there are two types of parallax method that is stellar parallax and trigonometric parallax.The disadvantage of using parallax method is that it can can not reach so far in the Galaxy due to this reason parallax method is generally not used for measuring distance in galaxy.

Two point charges 3q and −8q (with q &gt; 0) are at x = 0 and x = L, respectively, and free to move. A third charge is placed so
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The unknown charge can not remain in between the charge given because force on the middle charge will act in the same direction due to both the remaining charges.

So the unknown charge is somewhere on negative side of x axis . Its charge will be negative . Let it be - Q and let it be at distance - x on x axis.

force on it due to rest of the charges will be equal and opposite so

k3q Q / x² =k 8q Q / (L+x)²

8x² = 3 (L+x)²

2√2 x = √3 (L+x)

2√2 x - √3 x = √3 L

x(2√2 - √3 ) = √3 L

x = √3 L / (2√2 - √3 )

Let us consider the balancing force on 3q

force on it due to -Q and -8q will be equal

kQ . 3q / x² = k3q  8q / L²

Q = 8q  (x² / L²)

so charge required = - 8q  (x² / L²)

and its distance from x on negative x side = √3 L / (2√2 - √3 )
