An fm radio station broadcasts electromagnetic radiation at a frequency of 100.6 mhz. the wavelength of this radiation is ______

__ m.
Physics
2 answers:
Nitella [24]3 years ago
8 0

<u>Answer:</u> The wavelength of radiation is 2.98 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the wavelength of light, we use the equation:

\lambda=\frac{c}{\nu}

where,

\lambda = wavelength of the radiation = ?

c = speed of light = 2.998\times 10^8m/s

\nu = frequency of radiation = 100.6MHz=100.6\times 10^6Hz=100.6\times 10^6s^{-1}    (Conversion factor:  1MHz=10^6Hz )

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\lambda=\frac{2.998\times 10^8m/s}{100.6\times 10^6s^{-1}}=2.98m

Hence, the wavelength of radiation is 2.98 m

The wavelength would be 2.980044314115. Reduced it would be 2.980 or just 2.98.

What is the quantity of heat energy required to convert 10g cube of ice at -30oC to steam at 120oC. also draw a graph of tempera
julia-pushkina [17]

30,869.2 J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ice cube = 10g

Initial temperature = -30°C

Final temperature = 120°C

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2J/g°C

Specific heat capacity of ice = 2.1J/g°C

Specific heat capacity of steam  = 1.996J/g°C

Latent heat of fusion of water(l) = 334J/g

Latent heat of vaporization = 2230J/g

Unknown:

Quantity of heat required = ?

Temperature-energy graph = ?

Solution:

The temperature energy profile is attached to this solution.

q = mc∅ₓ + mlₓ + mc∅ₙ + mlₙ + mc∅ₐ

qₓ = mc∅ₓ in converting ice from -30°C to ice at 0°C

qₓ is the amount of heat supplied to the ice that changes its temperature from -30°C to that at freezing point:

qₓ  = 10 x 4.2 x (0-(-30)) = 10 x 2.1 x 30 = 630J

qₓ = mlₓ in converting ice to water

qₓ here is the latent heat used to break the ice bonds without a change in temperature:

qₓ = ml = 10 x 334 = 3340J

qₙ = mc∅ₙ is the heat from water at 0°C to boiling point.

This is the heat required to take water from freezing temperature to its boiling point

qₙ = mc∅ₙ  = 10 x 4.2 x (100 - 0) = 4200J

qₙ  = mlₙ is the heat in vaporizing water

In vaporizing water, there is no temperature change when the hydrogen bonds are broken. The heat supplied is not used to raise temperature. We use the latent heat of vaporization:

qₙ   = 10 x 2230 = 22300J

qₐ = mc∅ₐ from vapor at 100°C to 120°C

This is the heat used to raise the temperature of vapor:

qₐ = 10 x 1.996 x (120-100) = 399.2J

The total heat:

  q = qₓ + qₙ + qₐ = 630J + 3340J + 4200J + 22300J + 399.2J =30,869.2 J

Juan amd kym have four samples of matter. They are observing and describing the properties of these samples. Which property will
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: The property that will best provide evidence that the samples are solid includes:

--> if the substance has a definite shape,

-->if the substance has a definite volume

--> if it's tightly packed.

Explanation:

According to the kinetic theory of matter, every substance consist of very large number of very small particles called molecules. These molecules, which are made up of atoms that are the smallest particles of a substance that can exist in a free state.

Matter can exist in the following states:

--> Solid state

--> liquid state or

--> Gaseous state.

The general property of a substance that is in gaseous state includes:

--> Definite shape: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it's shape is fixed that is, it doesn't depend on the shape of other materials.

--> Definite volume: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it occupies its own shape. This is due to the force of cohesion among its molecules.

--> Tightly packed: A substance can be grouped as solid if the molecular movements of the particles are negligible.

From the samples under observation by Juan and kym, if the sample that possesses the above described qualities, it is a solid rather than liquid or gas.

A 2.00 kg block on a horizontal floor is attached to a horizontal spring that is initially compressed 0.0300 m . The spring has
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

v = 0.41 m/s

Explanation:

  • In this case, the change in the mechanical energy, is equal to the work done by the fricition force on the block.
  • At any point, the total mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy plus the elastic potential energy.
  • So, we can write the following general equation, taking the initial and final values of the energies:

       \Delta K + \Delta U = W_{ffr}  (1)

  • Since the block and spring start at rest, the change in the kinetic energy is just the final kinetic energy value, Kf.
  • ⇒ Kf = 1/2*m*vf²  (2)
  • The change in the potential energy, can be written as follows:

       \Delta U = U_{f}  - U_{o}  = \frac{1}{2} * k * (x_{f} ^{2} - x_{0} ^{2} ) (3)

       where k = force constant = 815 N/m

       xf = final displacement of the block = 0.01 m (taking as x=0 the position

      for the spring at equilibrium)

      x₀ = initial displacement of  the block = 0.03 m

  • Regarding the work done by the force of friction, it can be written as follows:

       W_{ffr} = - \mu_{k}* F_{n} * \Delta x  (4)

       where μk = coefficient of kinettic friction, Fn = normal force, and Δx =

       horizontal displacement.

  • Since the surface is horizontal, and no acceleration is present in the vertical direction, the normal force must be equal and opposite to the force due to gravity, Fg:
  • Fn = Fg= m*g (5)
  • Replacing (5) in (4), and (3) and (4) in (1), and rearranging, we get:

        \frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2} = W_{ffr} - \Delta U = W_{ffr} - (U_{f} -U_{o})  (6)

        \frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2} = (- \mu_{k}* m*g* \Delta x)  -\frac{1}{2} * k * (x_{f} ^{2} - x_{0} ^{2} ) (7)

  • Replacing by the values of m, k, g, xf and x₀, in (7) and solving for v, we finally get:

    \frac{1}{2} * 2.00 kg* v^{2}  = (-0.4*2.00 kg*9.8m/s2*0.02m) +( (\frac{1}{2} *815 N/m)* (0.03m)^{2} - (0.01m)^{2}) = -0.1568 J + 0.326 J (8)

  • v =\sqrt{(0.326-0.1568}  =  0.41 m/s  (9)
