4 0

Answer:

3Hz (Hertz)

Explanation:

It's basically asking you to find the frequency of the wave.

Frequency = Velocity / Wavelength

36 / 12 = 3

The wave height is equal to twice the _____.wave period wave height wave amplitude wave velocity wavelength
Archy [21]

The wave height is equal to twice the amplitude of the wave.

The wave height of a wave of given wave with amplitude, period and wavelength is equal to twice the amplitude of the wave.

The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of the wave, starting from the zero position of the wave. The wave height measures twice the maximum displacement of the wave.

Thus, we can conclude that the wave height is equal to twice the amplitude of the wave.

If a FM radio station broadcasts at 80. 3 MHz (megahertz), what is its wavelength in m (speed of light 3. 0 x 108 m/s)
hammer [34]

Answer:

Wavelength = 3.74 m

Explanation:

In order to find wavelength in "metres", we must first convert megahertz to hertz.

1 MHz = 1 × 10⁶ Hz

80.3 Mhz = <em>x</em>

<em>x </em>= 80.3 × 1 × 10⁶ = 8.03 × 10⁷ Hz

The formula between wave speed, frequency and wavelength is:

v = fλ  [where v is wave speed, f is frequency and λ is wavelength]

Reorganise the equation and make λ the subject.

λ = v ÷ f

λ = (3 × 10⁸) ÷ (8.03 × 10⁷)

λ = 3.74 m [rounded to 3 significant figures]

Humans can see several thousand shades of color but have cone photoreceptors that are sensitive to only three (perhaps four) wav
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

B. Color perception is achieved by activation of various combinations between the tree cone types.

Explanation:

Human eye have only three photo receptor ( three wavelength) but they can see several thousands of shades of color because color perception is gained by combination of these three wave length cone types ( RED, BLUE AND GREEN) into various combinations. Our retina have two types of cell:- cone cells and cylindrical cells. Cone cells are responsible for the identification of color.

An image seen in a smooth dinner plate is an example of ____ reflection.
spayn [35]

The correct answer is letter C, regular reflection.

<span>An image seen in a smooth dinner plate is an example of a regular reflection. This phenomenon only occurs in smooth and polished surfaces. During this stage light occurs at a certain angle and is reflected back at the same angle producing reflections in a way like a mirror does this commonly.</span>
