If the light wave has a wavelength of 10m what would be its velocity
s2008m [1.1K]

If this case could ever happen, the speed would follow from this formula:

v = f \cdot \lambda

with f the frequency and lambda the wavelength. We are give a wavelength of 10m. The frequencies of the visible light can range between 400 to about 790 Terahertz, so let us pick a middle point of 600 THz ("green-ish") as a "representative."

v = 600THz\cdot 10m = 6\cdot 10^{14} \frac{1}{s}\cdot 10 m = 6\cdot10^{15}\frac{m}{s}

The speed of such a wave would have to be 6e+15 m/s (which would be 7 orders of magnitude higher than the universal speed of light constant)

A girl rolls a ball up an incline and allows it to re- turn to her. For the angle and ball involved, the acceleration of the bal
zalisa [80]

Answer:

3.28 m

3.28 s

Explanation:

We can adopt a system of reference with an axis along the incline, the origin being at the position of the girl and the positive X axis going up slope.

Then we know that the ball is subject to a constant acceleration of 0.25*g (2.45 m/s^2) pointing down slope. Since the acceleration is constant we can use the equation for constant acceleration:

X(t) = X0 + V0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

X0 = 0

V0 = 4 m/s

a = -2.45 m/s^2 (because the acceleration is down slope)

Then:

X(t) = 4*t - 1.22*t^2

And the equation for speed is:

V(t) = V0 + a * t

V(t) = 4 - 2.45 * t

If we equate this to zero we can find the moment where it stops and begins rolling down, that will be the highest point:

0 = 4 - 2.45 * t

4 = 2.45 * t

t = 1.63 s

Replacing that time on the position equation:

X(1.63) = 4 * 1.63 - 1.22 * 1.63^2 = 3.28 m

To find the time it will take to return we equate the position equation to zero:

0 = 4 * t - 1.22 * t^2

Since this is a quadratic equation it will have to answers, one will be the moment the ball was released (t = 0), the other will eb the moment when it returns:

0 = t * (4 - 1.22*t)

t1 = 0

0 = 4 - 1.22*t2

1.22 * t2 = 4

t2 = 3.28 s

Calculate the average value of an AC signal with a peak amplitude of 10V and a frequency of 10 kHz.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

V(average)=6.37 V

Explanation:

Given Data

Peak Voltage=10V

Frequency=10 kHZ

To Find

Average Voltage

Solution

For this first we need to find Voltage peak to peak

So

Voltage (peak to peak)= 2× voltage peak

Voltage (peak to peak)= 2×10

Voltage (peak to peak)= 20 V

Now from Voltage (peak to peak) formula we can find the Average Voltage

So

Voltage (peak to peak)=π×V(average)

V(average)=Voltage (peak to peak)/π

V(average)=20/3.14

V(average)=6.37 V
