Calculate the wavelength λ1 for gamma rays of frequency f1 = 7.20×1021 hz .

1 answer:

5 0

The relationship between wavelength $\lambda$ , frequency f and speed of light c for an electromagnetic wave is
$\lambda= \frac{c}{f}$
Using the data of the problem, we find
$\lambda= \frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s }{7.20 \cdot 10^{21} Hz}=4.17 \cdot 10^{-14} m$

Answer:

Final temperature, T2 = 314.9 Kelvin

Explanation:

Given the following data:

Mass = 0.9kg

Initial temperature, T1 = 10°C to Kelvin = 10 + 273 = 283K

Quantity of heat = 120,000 J

Specific heat capacity = 4182 j/kgK

To find the final temperature;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

$Q = mcdt$

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

Making dt the subject of formula, we have;

$dt = \frac {Q}{mc}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$dt = \frac {120000}{0.9*4182}$

$dt = \frac {120000}{3763.8}$

dt = 31.9K

Now, the final temperature T2 is;

But, dt = T2 - T1

T2 = dt + T1

T2 = 31.9 + 283

T2 = 314.9 Kelvin

How much force is needed to accelerate a 2500 kg car at a rate of 3.5 m/s^2?

Sati [7]

F = ma

F = applied force in newtons = to be determined

m = mass of the car = 2,500 kg

a = acceleration of the car = 3.5 m/s²

F = (2,500 kg)(3.5 m/s²)

F =8750

A jet accelerates from rest down a runway at 1.75m/s² for a distance of 1500 m before takeoff.

babunello [35]

A. Using the third equation of motion:
v2 = u2 + 2as
from the question;
the jet was initially at rest
hence u = 0
a = 1.75m/s2
s = 1500m
v2 = 02 + 2(1.75)(1500)
v2 = 5250
v = √5250
v = 72.46m/s
hence it moves with a velocity of 72.46m/s.
b. s = ut + 1/2at2
1500 = 0(t) + 1/2(1.75)t2
1500 × 2 = 2× 1/2(1.75)t2
3000 = 1.75t2
1714.29 = t2
41.4 = t
hence the time taken for the plane to down the runway is 41.4s.
