What is the frequency of a wave whose wavelength is 0.7m and whose velocity is 120m/s?

Answer:

f=171.43Hz

Explanation:

Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time.

The frequency formula is: f=v÷λ, where <em>v</em> is the velocity and <em>λ</em> is the wavelength.

Then replacing with the data of the problem,

f=\frac{120\frac{m}{s} }{0.7m}

f=171.43\frac{1}{s}

f=171.43 Hz (because \frac{1}{s} = Hz, 1 hertz equals 1 wave passing a fixed point in 1 second).

In the photoelectric effect, the greater the frequency of the illuminating light, the greater the:_______
TEA [102]

Answer:

B. Maximum velocity of ejected electrons.

Explanation:

The ejection of electrons form a metal surface when the metal surface is exposed to a monochromatic electromagnetic wave of sufficiently short wavelength or higher frequency (or equivalently, above a threshold frequency),  which leads to the enough energy of the wave to incident and get absorbed to the exposed surface emits electrons. This phenomenon is known as the photoelectric effect or photo-emission.

The minimum amount of energy required by a metal surface to eject an electron from its surface is called work function of metal surface.

The electrons thus emitted are called photo-electrons.

The current produced as a result is called photo electricity.

Energy of photon is given by:

E=h.\nu

where:

h = Planck's constant

\nu= frequency of the incident radiation.

PHYSICS, HELP PLZ??!! 100PTS

Hi there!

We can begin by calculating the time the ball takes to reach the highest point of its trajectory, which can be found using the following:

t_{max} = \frac{vsin\theta}{g}

Where:

tmax = (? sec)

vsinθ = vertical comp. of velocity = 10sin(48) = 7.43 m/s)

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²)

We can solve for this time:

t_{max} = \frac{7.43}{9.8} = 0.758 s

When the ball is at the TOP of its trajectory, its VERTICAL velocity is equivalent to 0 m/s. Thus, we can consider this a free-fall situation.

We must begin by solving for the maximum height reached by the ball using the equation:

d = y_0 + v_{0y}t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

d = displacement (m)

vi = initial velocity (7.43 m/s)

a = acceleration due to gravity

d = displacement (m)

y0 = initial VERTICAL displacement (28m)

Plug in the values:

d = 28 + 7.43(0.758) + \frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(0.758^2) = 30.817 m

Now, we can use the rearranged kinematic equation:

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

t = \sqrt{\frac{2(30.817)}{9.8}} = 2.51 s

Add the two times together:

0.758 + 2.51 = \boxed{3.266 s}
