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 least dense planet in our solar system?.
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system, but it's Saturn—the solar system's second largest planet—that takes the prize for least dense. It's less dense than water, which has led many people to postulate that it would float.

Suppose that two point charges, each with a charge of +3.00 Coulomb are separated by a distance of 3.00 meters. Determine the ma
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

9\cdot 10^9 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrical force between the two point charges is

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q_1 =q_2 = +3.0 C is the magnitude of each charge

r = 3.00 m is the separation between the two charges

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

F=(9\cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2})\frac{(+3 C)^2}{(3.00 m)^2}=9\cdot 10^9 N
