A ray of yellow light (f = 5.09 × 1014hz) travels at a speed of 2.04 × 108meters per second in

1 answer:

8 0

Velocity = fλ

where f is frequency in Hz, and λ is wavelength in meters.

2.04 * 10⁸ m/s = 5.09 * 10¹⁴ Hz * λ

(2.04 * 10⁸ m/s) / (5.09 * 10¹⁴ Hz ) = λ

4.007*10⁻⁷ m = λ

The wavelength of the yellow light = 4.007*10⁻⁷ m

Answer:

The dust present in the clouds.

Explanation:

The complicated composition molecules that can be found in space are generally associated with clouds of dust. The significant amount of dust in these clouds provides protection not only for these molecules, but for any body that makes up or is associated with dust clouds.

It is exactly this dust that protects the molecules against the action of ultraviolet rays.

An unknown charged particle passes without deflection through crossed electric and magnetic fields of strengths 187,500 V/m and

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

The electric fields of strengths E = 187,500 V/m and

and The magnetic fields of strengths B = 0.1250 T

The diameter d is 25.05 cm which is converted to 0.2505m

The radius is (d/2)

= 0.2505m / 2 = 0.12525m

The given formula to find the magnetic force is $F_{ma}=BqV---(i)$

The given formula to find the electric force is $F_{el}=qE---(ii)$

The velocity of electric field and magnetic field is said to be perpendicular

Electric field is equal to magnectic field

Equate equation (i) and equation (ii)

$Bqv=qE\\\\v=\frac{E}{B}$

$v=\frac{187500}{0.125} \\\\v=15\times10^5m/s$

It is said that the particles moves in semi circle, so we are going to consider using centripetal force

$F_{ce}=\frac{mv^2}{r}---(iii)$

magnectic field is equal to centripetal force

Lets equate equation (i) and (iii)

$Bqr=\frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\\frac{q}{m}=\frac{v}{Br} \\\\\frac{q}{m} =\frac{15\times 10^5}{0.125\times0.12525} \\\\=\frac{15\times10^5}{0.015656} \\\\=95808383.23\\\\=958.1\times10^5C/kg$
